Sample questions

  1. 1.Prove the trigonometric identity by selecting the correct simplified form of the left-hand side (LHS): $(\csc A - \sin A)(\sec A - \cos A) \sec^2 A$
    • A.$\frac{\sin A}{\cos A} = \tan A$
    • B.$\frac{\cos A}{\sin A} = \cot A$
    • C.$\frac{1}{\sin A \cos A} = \csc A \sec A$
    • D.$\sin A \cos A = \frac{1}{2} \sin 2A$
  2. 2.Which of the following correctly proves the identity: $\sqrt{\frac{1 + \sin A}{1 - \sin A}} = \sec A + \tan A$?
    • A.$\sqrt{\frac{1 + \sin A}{1 - \sin A}} = \sqrt{\frac{(1 + \sin A)^2}{1 - \sin^2 A}} = \frac{1 + \sin A}{\cos A} = \sec A + \tan A$
    • B.$\sqrt{\frac{1 + \sin A}{1 - \sin A}} = \sqrt{\frac{1 - \sin A}{1 + \sin A}} = \frac{1 - \sin A}{\cos A} = \sec A - \tan A$
    • C.$\sqrt{\frac{1 + \sin A}{1 - \sin A}} = \frac{1 + \sin A}{1 - \sin A} = \frac{1}{\cos A} = \sec A$
    • D.$\sqrt{\frac{1 + \sin A}{1 - \sin A}} = \sqrt{\frac{1 + \sin A}{1 - \sin A} \cdot \frac{\cos A}{\cos A}} = \frac{1 + \sin A}{\sin A} = \csc A + 1$
  3. 3.Using tables find the value of: $\sin 9^\circ 55'$
    • A.0.1719
    • B.0.1722
    • C.0.1734
    • D.0.1707
  4. 4.Prove the following trigonometric identity by selecting the correct simplified form of the left-hand side (L.H.S.): $\left(\tan A + \frac{1}{\cos A}\right)^2 + \left(\tan A - \frac{1}{\cos A}\right)^2 = ?$
    • A.$2 \left(\frac{1 + \sin^2 A}{1 - \sin^2 A}\right)$
    • B.$2 \left(\frac{1 + \sin A}{1 - \sin A}\right)$
    • C.$2(\tan^2 A + \sec^2 A)$
    • D.$\frac{2 \sin^2 A}{\cos^2 A}$
  5. 5.The expression $\sqrt{\frac{\sec\theta - 1}{\sec\theta + 1}} + \sqrt{\frac{\sec\theta + 1}{\sec\theta - 1}}$ simplifies to which of the following?
