Sample questions
-
1.If $x = r \cos A \cos B$, $y = r \cos A \sin B$ and $z = r \sin A$, which of the following correctly shows that $x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = r^2$?
- A.$x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = r^2 \cos^2 A \cos^2 B + r^2 \cos^2 A \sin^2 B + r^2 \sin^2 A = r^2$
- B.$x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = r^2 \cos^2 A (\cos^2 B + \sin^2 B) + r^2 \sin^2 A = r^2 (\cos^2 A + \sin^2 A) = r^2$
- C.$x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = r^2 (\cos^2 A + \sin^2 A + \cos^2 B + \sin^2 B) = 2r^2$
- D.$x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = r^2 \cos^2 A \cos^2 B + r^2 \sin^2 A = r^2 (\cos^2 A + \sin^2 A) = r^2$

2.Which of the following correctly proves the identity $\sqrt{\sec^2 A + \csc^2 A} = \tan A + \cot A$?
- A.Square both sides, express in terms of $\sin A$ and $\cos A$, and use $\sin^2 A + \cos^2 A = 1$ to show LHS = RHS.
- B.Square both sides, then simplify using $\sec^2 A = 1 + \tan^2 A$ and $\csc^2 A = 1 + \cot^2 A$ directly without further substitution.
- C.Take the square root of both sides and equate $\sec A + \csc A$ to $\tan A + \cot A$ using reciprocal identities.
- D.Multiply both sides by $\sin A \cos A$ to eliminate denominators, then simplify without squaring.
-

-
4.Express $\cos 74^\circ + \sec 67^\circ$ in terms of trigonometric functions of angles between $0^\circ$ and $45^\circ$. Which of the following is the correct expression?
