Topic Trigonometry
Given
Angle = 1000°
Reduce angle
1000° = 2×360° + 280°
Therefore
1000° ≡ 280°
Now
270° < 280° < 360°
Hence terminal side lies in
Fourth Quadrant
Answer (d) Fourth Quadrant

Topic Trigonometry
Given
x = sinθ cosθ
y = sinθ + cosθ
Square y
y²
= sin²θ + cos²θ + 2sinθcosθ
= 1 + 2x
Therefore
y² - 2x = 1
Answer (a) y² - 2x = 1

Topic Heights & Distances
Let
Height of balloon = h km
Initial distance = x km
tan30° = h/x
h = x/√3 ...(1)
After walking 1 km
Distance = x-1
tan60° = h/(x-1)
h = √3(x-1) ...(2)
Equating
x/√3 = √3(x-1)
x = 3x - 3
2x = 3
x = 3/2
From (1)
h = (3/2)/√3
= √3/2 km
Answer (b) √3/2 km

Topic Conic Sections
For ellipse
Length of latus rectum
= 2b²/a
Minor axis
= 2b
Given
2b²/a = (1/2)(2b)
⇒ b²/a = b/2
⇒ 2b = a
⇒ b = a/2
Eccentricity
e² = 1 - b²/a²

Topic Vectors
Given
|a+b| = |a-b|
Squaring both sides
|a+b|² = |a-b|²
a²+b²+2a·b
= a²+b²-2a·b
4a·b = 0
a·b = 0
Hence
