    Correct answers:
    1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
    C D B A A A D D B D

    Explanations:

    1.
    Sum of angles of a triangle = 180°

    ∴ x + 5 + 2x – 3 + 3x + 4 = 180°

    ⇒ 6x + 6 = 180°

    ⇒ 6x = 174°

    ⇒ x = 29

    Hence, option C is correct.

    2.
    cot 10° . cot 80° . cot 20° . cot 70° . cot 60°

    = cot 10° . tan 10° . cot 20° . tan 20° . cot 60°

    [∵ cot (90° – Θ) = tan Θ & cot Θ . tan Θ = 1]

    [∴ ]
    √ √

    √
    Hence, option D is correct.
    3.
    7 sin2 Θ + 3 cos2 Θ = 4

    sin2 Θ 4
    ⇒ 7 2 +3= 2 = 4 sec2 Θ
    cos Θ cos Θ

    ⇒ 7 tan2 Θ + 3 = 4(1 + tan2 Θ)

    ⇒ 7 tan2 Θ – 4 tan2 Θ = 4 – 3

    ⇒ 3 tan2 Θ = 1
    1
    ⇒ tan2 Θ =
    3
    1
    ⇒ tan Θ =
    √3

    Hence, option B is correct.

    4.
    No. of terms in 1 + 5 + 9 + ... + 89 = n

    ∴ a + (n – 1) d = Tn

    ⇒ 1 + (n – 1) × 4 = 89

    ⇒ (n – 1) × 4 = 89 – 1 = 88

    ⇒ n – 1 = 22

    ⇒ n = 23

    Now,

    sin2 1° + sin2 89° + sin2 5° + sin2 85° + ..... to 22 terms + sin2 45°
    = (sin2 1° + cos2 1°) + (sin2 5° + cos2 5°) + ..... to 11 terms + sin2 45°

    [∵ sin (90° – Θ) = cos Θ]


    1 2
    = 1 + 1 + ..... + to 11 terms + ( )
    2
    [∵ sin2 Θ + cos2 Θ = 1]
    1
    = 11 +
    2
    1
    = 11
    2

    Hence, option A is correct.

    cot 18° (cot 72° cos2 22° + )
    tan 72° sec2 68°
    cot 18°
    = cot 18° cot 72° cos2 22° +
    tan 72° sec2 68°
    tan 72°
    = cot 18° tan 18° cos2 22° +
    tan 72° sec2 68°
    [∵ cot (90° – Θ) = tan Θ]
    1
    = cos2 22° + 2
    sec 68°
    [∵ cot Θ tan Θ = 1]

    = cos2 22° + cos2 68°

    = sin2 68° + cos2 68° = 1.

    [∵ cos (90° – Θ) = sin Θ]

    Hence, option A is correct.


    6.
    tan 15° cot 75° + tan 75° cot 15°

    = tan2 15° + cot2 15° ...(i)

    [∵ cot (90° – Θ) = tan Θ & tan (90° – Θ) = cot Θ]

    Given,

    tan 15° = 2 – √3

    ∴
    √
    √

    ( √ )( √ )

    From equation (i),

    tan2 15° + cot2 15°

    ( √ ) ( √ )

    √ √

    = 14

    Hence, option A is correct.

    7.
    sin (2x – 20°) = cos (2y + 20°)

    ⇒ sin (2x – 20°) = cos (90° – 2y – 20°)

    ⇒ sin (2x – 20°) = sin (70° – 2y)


    ⇒ (2x – 20°) = (70° – 2y)

    ⇒ 2x + 2y = 70° + 20° = 90°

    ⇒ x + y = 45°

    taking tan both side, we get

    ∴ tan (x + y) = tan 45° = 1

    Hence, option D is correct.

    8.
    A + B = 90° ⇒ B = 90° – A

    ∴ sec2 A + sec2 B – sec2 A . sec2 B

    = sec2 A + sec2 (90° – A) – sec2 A . sec2 (90° – A)

    [∵ B = 90° – A ]

    = sec2 A + cosec2 A – sec2 A cosec2 A

    [∵ sec (90° – A) = cosec A]

    1 1 1
    = + 2 – 2
    cos A sin A sin A cos2 A

    sin2 A + cos2 A – 1
    =
    sin2 A cos2 A

    1–1
    = =0
    sin A cos2 A
    2

    Hence, option D is correct.


    9.
    Let the number of terms be n, then

    Tn = a + (n – 1) d

    ⇒ 85 = 5 + (n – 1) × 1

    ⇒ n – 1 = 85 – 5 = 80

    ⇒ n = 81

    ∴ sin2 5° + sin2 6° + ... + sin2 45° + ... + sin2 84° + sin2 85°

    = (sin2 5° + sin2 85°) + (sin2 6° + sin2 84°) + ..... to 40 terms + sin2 45°

    = (sin2 5° + cos2 5°) + (sin2 6° + cos2 6°) + ..... to 40 terms + sin2 45°

    [∵ sin (90° – Θ) = cos Θ]

    ( )

    Hence, option B is correct.

    10.
    sin2 5° + sin2 10° + sin2 15° + ..... + sin2 85° + sin2 90°

    = (sin2 5° + sin2 85°) + (sin2 10° + sin2 80°) + ..... to 8 terms + sin2 45° +
    sin2 90°

    = (sin2 5° + cos2 5°) + (sin2 10° + cos2 10°) + .... to 8 terms + sin2 45° + sin2 90°
