Question31. A round balloon of radius r subtends an angle 'b' at the eye of the observer while the angle of elevation of its centre is 'c'. Prove that the height of the centre of the balloon is (r sin b cosec c/2) by Arshad Email add ares.ar...........@gmail.com  answered on Feb 2, 2007 at 9:09 I.S.T.
(Figures cannot be drawn on our webpages) b is angle subtended subtended on eye of observer, so angle APB = b, where in figure PA Answer31. and PB act as tangents also join OA, OB and OP, O being the centre of circle.Triangle OAP is congruent to triangle OBP so   angle APO = angle BPO = b/2.
angle OPC = c because it is angle of elevation.
sin c = h/OP and cosec b/2 = OP/r      where h is height of centre of balloon
sin c
×cosec b/2 = h/OP × OP/r
                        = h/r
r sin c ×cosec b/2 = h

Question32. Prove that if Cos A + Sin A = root 2×Sin A , Then Sin A - Cos A = Root2×sin A
i think this question is wrong
, please tell me if i am right. by Piyush Pattanayak piyush..........@gmail.com, answered on Feb 3, 2007 at 10:09 p.m. I.S.T.
Answer32. The correct question is
Prove that if Cos A + Sin A = root 2 Sin A , Then Sin A - Cos A = Root2 cos A
Solution
Cos A  = root 2 Sin A -  Sin A
Cos A  = (root 2 - 1 )Sin A
Sin A =   cos A/
(root 2 - 1 ) and then rationalising the denominator we get
sin A - cos A = root2
cosA

Question33. How to Factorise : 4 x^4 + y^4     (4 times x to the power of 4 plus y to the power of 4) by Saurabh , Email saurabh_bis........@yahoo.co.in, answered on Feb 8, 2007 at 8:52 p.m. I.S.T.
Answer33. 4 x^4 + y^4 can be solved by method of completing the squares
= [(2x)^2]^2  + (y^2)^2
=
[(2x)^2]^2  + (y^2)^2 + 4x^2 y^2 - 4x^2 y^2        (adding and subtracting 2ab)
= [2x^2 + y^2]^2  -  (2x^2y^2)^2                           [ because  a^2 + b^2 +  2ab =  (a + b)^2]
= [
2x^2 + y^2 - 2x^2y^2][2x^2 + y^2 + 2x^2y^2]     [ a^2 - b^2 = (a - b)(a + b)]

Question34. (tanA+secA-1) / (tanA-secA+1)    =  (1 + sinA) / cosA  by preeti bhanwala, Email em_pre010.........@yahoo.co.in, answered on 10 Feb 2007 at 1:22 p.m.
Answer34. L.H.S. = [tanA+secA-1] / [tanA-secA+1]
= [tanA+secA - (sec^2 A - tan^2 A)] / [tanA - secA + 1]
=
[tanA+secA - (secA - tanA)(secA + tanA) / [tanA - secA + 1]   [ a^2 - b^2 = (a - b)(a + b)]
= (tanA+secA) (tanA - secA + 1) / [tanA - secA + 1]
= tanA+secA
=
(1 + sinA) / cosA
= R.H.S.

Question37. A triangle ABC is right angled at A. AL is drawn perpendicular to BC. Prove that angle BAL = angle ACB. by shahid akhtar, Email akhtar........@yahoo.co.in, answered on Feb 13, 2007 at 1:12 p.m. I.S.T.
Answer37. In triangle BAC,
angle B + angle C + angle BAC = 180      ........(1)
In triangle BLA, angle B + angle BLA + angle BAL = 180   ........ (2)

From (1) and (2)  angle B + angle C + angle BAC = angle B + angle BLA + angle BAL
                  
angle C + angle BAC = angle BLA + angle BAL
                 
angle ACB  =  angle BAL   (because angle BLA = angle BAC = 90)

Question 40..   S is a point in the interior of a triangle ABC.Prove that AB+AC > SB+SC by Akshay Shreedhar class 1X, Email akshayshree.........@gmail.com, answered on Feb 19, 2007 at 7:45 p.m.
Answer 40.
Construction - Produce BS to intersect AC at T
Proof - In triangle ABT,  AB + AT > BT       ........(i)
            
In triangle STC,   ST + TC > SC      ........(ii)
             Adding (i) and (ii)
            
AB + AT + ST + TC > BT + SC
            
AB + AT + ST + TC > SB + ST + SC     (BT = BS + ST from figure)
            
AB + AT + TC > SB + SC                        ( cancelling ST)
            
AB + AC > SB + SC                                (AT + TC = AC from figure)
                      

Question 41A peacock is sitting on a tree nine metres high. A snake at a distance of twenty Seven metres from pillar is coming to a pole at the base of the pillar. Seeing the Snake the peacock pounces upon it. If their speeds are equal find the distance from the hole at which the snake caught. by kartarlal class X,  E mail kartar.l....@rediff.com, answered on Feb 20, 2007 at 8:32 p.m.
Answer41. Let AB represent tree, C is position of snake. It is moving along CB. Let D be the position where snake is caught by the peacock.
Let CD = x metres. Then AD = x metres where AD is distance covered by the peacock. BD = (27 - x) metres
Now in right triangle ABD, AB^2 + BD^2 = AD^2
                                   9^2 +
(27 - x)^2 = x^2
                                  
x^2 - (27 - x)^2 = 81
                                   (x - 27 + x)(x + 27 - x) = 81
                                   (2x - 27)27 = 81
                                  
(2x - 27) = 3
                                    2x = 30
                                     x = 15
                                    Required distance = 27 - 15 = 12 metres

Question 42.A triangle ABC is  right angled at B. AB=a  BC=b and AC=c.The perpendicular from B on AC is of length 'p'.Prove that
       1/p^2=1/a^2 + 1/b^2 by
Mustafa,  E mail mustafa.k......@gmail.com, answered at Feb 21, 2007 at 5:41 p.m.
Answer42.     ar(triangle ABC) =
ar(right triangle ABC)
                   1/2 (cp) = 1/2(ab)             [area of triangle = 1/2 base
×height]
                   cp = ab
                   c = ab/p     .........(i)
                   In right triangle ABC,  c^2 = b^2 + a^2
                              (ab)^2/p^2 =
b^2 + a^2   using(i)
                             
1/p^2=1/a^2 + 1/b^2        dividing both sides (ab)^2

Question 44. ABC and ADC are two right triangles with common hypotenuse CD. Prove that angle CAD = angle CBD. by sandeep tiwari, Email   sibu_789632.......@rediff.com , answered on Feb 23, 2007 at 6:19 p.m.
Answer 44. There can be 2 cases (i) when triangles are on opposite sides of CD  (ii)
when triangles are on same sides of CD   
case i      
In quadrilateral ABCD, angle B + angle D = 90 + 90 = 180. Therefore quadrilateral ABCD is cyclic.
So points A, B, C and D are concyclic. 
angle CAD = angle CBD  (angles in same segment) 
case ii
angle B and angle D are equal and on same side of AC. Therefore
points A, B, C and D are concyclic.
angle CAD = angle CBD (angles in same segment)
