QUESTION 1:
The sides of a triangle are a, b and c. Find the length of side c when a = 2 cm, b = 3 cm and the
internal angle between b and c is 25o.
a. 4.27 cm or 3.25 cm.
b. 4.27 cm or 1.17 cm.
c. 1.17 cm or 3.25 cm.
d. The triangle is geometrically not defined.

Correct Answer: b

Detailed Solution:

From triangle law, a2 = b2 + c2 - 2bc cos α or, c2 – 6 cos 250 c + 5 = 0 => c = 4.2667 cm or
1.1711 cm.

QUESTION 2:
Solve the equation for .
a. 101.10o or -57.50o.
b. -57.50o or 28.39o.
c. 28.39o or 101.10o
d. -18.25o or -57.50o.

Correct Answer: a

Detailed Solution:

Replace, sin ϴ = 2 t / (1 + t2) and cos ϴ = (1 – t2) / (1 + t2) where, t = tan (ϴ/2).

2(2t) + 5 (1 – t2) = 1 + t2

3t2 – 2t – 2 = 0 or t = (2±√28)/6 or ϴ = 101.09970, -57.49690

QUESTION 4:
, . Calculate and .
a. 34.99 and 12.21o
b. 7.50 and 71.14o
c. 12.21 and 34.99o
d. 71.14 and 7.50o

Correct Answer: c

Detailed Solution:

a + b = 3i + 5j + 7i + 2j = 10i + 7j

|a + b| = √(102+72) = 12.2066

QUESTION 5:
Find the point of intersection of two lines and .
a. (5/6, 1/3)
b. (1/3, 5/6)
c. (1/13, 4/13)
d. (4/13, 1/13)

Correct Answer: d

Detailed Solution:

3x + y = 1…………………………………(i)

5x +6y = 2…………………………………………..(ii)

From (i), y = 1 – 3x……………………………….(iii)

Substituting (iii) in (ii), x = 4/13

Hence from (iii), y = 1/13.

QUESTION 6:
What will be the equation of a line passing through points (2,-1) and (1,4)?
a. 5 x + y = 9
b. 5 y + x = 9
c. 9 x + y = 5
d. 9 y + x = 5

Correct Answer: a

Detailed Solution: (x-2)/(y-(-1)) = (2-1)/(-1-4)

=>5x + y = 9

, . Find the component of along .


a. 21.536 i + 8.076 j
b. 8.076 i + 21.536 j
c. 18.214 i + 35.145 j
d. 35.145 i + 18.214 j

Correct Answer: b

Detailed Solution: Component of a along b = (a.b)b/|b|

(a.b) is the magnitude of component of a along b.

The unit vector along b is b/|b|.

(a.b) = 23

b/|b| = (3i + 8j) / √(32+82) = (3i + 8j) / √73.

(a.b)b/|b| = 23(3i + 8j) / √73 = 8.0758i + 21.5356j

QUESTION 8:
, . Find the angle between and .
a. 3.11o
b. 8.21o
c. 11.54o
d. 90o

Correct Answer: a

Detailed Solution: a.b = |a||b| cos θ

a.b = (3.2 * 5.5 + 2.5 * 4.8) = 29.6

|a| = √(3.22 + 2.52) = 4.060788

|b| = √(5.52 + 4.82) = 7.3

cos θ = 0.998524 => θ = 3.113330

QUESTION 9:
Given a vector a= - i + 2j, determine its angle with the positive x axis.
a. -63.435o
b. 63.435o
c. -116.565o
d. 116.565o

Correct Answer: d

Detailed Solution:

θ = tan -1 (2/-1) = atan2 (-1,2) (i.e., in second quadrant) = 1800 - tan -1 (2/1) = 116.56510

QUESTION 10:
A vector a=3i + 4j is rotated by 60o in the counter-clockwise direction. Determine its new
representation.
a. 1.964 i + 4.598 j
b. 1.964 i - 4.598 j
c. -1.964 i + 4.598 j
d. -1.964 i - 4.598 j

Correct Answer: c

Detailed Solution:

Earlier angle = tan -1 (4/3) = 53.130

After 600 CCW rotation, new angle = 53.130 + 600 = 113.130

Amplitude of the vector, √(32 + 42) = 5

New representation, a1 = 5 cos 113.130i + 5 sin 113.130j = -1.9641i + 4.5981j
