B. 1
C. 2
D. -1
Answer: From 1 + tan^2 theta = sec^2 theta, sec^2 60 - tan^2 60 = 1.
A. adjacent / hypotenuse
B. opposite / adjacent
C. hypotenuse / opposite
D. opposite / hypotenuse
Answer: sin theta = side opposite theta divided by the hypotenuse.
A. 2
B. sqrt 3
C. 1 / sqrt 3
D. 1 + 1 / sqrt 3
Answer: tan 45 = 1 and tan 30 = 1 / sqrt 3, so the sum is 1 + 1 / sqrt 3.
A. 100 / sqrt 3 m
B. 100 m
C. 50 m
D. 100 sqrt 3 m
Answer: tan 30 = 100 / d, so d = 100 / (1 / sqrt 3) = 100 sqrt 3 m.
A. 40.15
B. 40.25
C. 40.5
D. 40.015
Answer: 15/60 = 0.25, so 40 degrees 15' = 40.25 degrees.
B. sqrt 3
C. undefined
D. 1
Answer: tan 45 = sin 45 / cos 45 = 1.
A. 4/5
B. 3/5
C. 3/4
D. 5/4
Answer: tan = opposite/adjacent = 3/4 gives hypotenuse 5, so sin theta = 3/5.
A. 90
B. 45
C. 30
D. 60
Answer: (pi/3) x (180/pi) = 60 degrees.
A. anticlockwise from North
B. clockwise from East
C. clockwise from North
D. anticlockwise from East
Answer: Bearings are always measured clockwise from North.
A. 1/2
B. 3/2
C. 1
Answer: sin 30 + cos 60 = 1/2 + 1/2 = 1.
A. 3/5
B. 3/4
C. 4/5
D. 5/4
Answer: The adjacent side is 4 and the hypotenuse is 5, so cos theta = 4/5.
A. 1 + cot^2 theta = csc^2 theta
B. 1 + cot^2 theta = sec^2 theta
C. 1 + tan^2 theta = csc^2 theta
D. cot^2 theta - 1 = csc^2 theta
Answer: Dividing sin^2 theta + cos^2 theta = 1 by sin^2 theta gives 1 + cot^2 theta = csc^2 theta.
A. 60
B. 30
C. 100
D. 3600
Answer: 1 minute = 60 seconds of angle, since 1 degree = 3600 seconds.
A. 2 pi
B. pi/2
C. pi
D. pi/4
Answer: By definition, a straight angle of 180 degrees equals pi radians.
A. 1
B. 1/2
C. sqrt 3 / 2
Answer: cos 90 = 0.
A. 1 / sqrt 3
B. sqrt 3
C. 1/2
D. 2
Answer: cot 30 = 1 / tan 30 = sqrt 3.
A. 3 pi/4
B. 2 pi/3
C. 5 pi/6
D. pi/6
Answer: 150 x (pi/180) = 150 pi / 180 = 5 pi / 6.
A. 12/5
B. 5/13
C. 12/13
D. 5/12
Answer: tan theta = opposite / adjacent = 5/12.
A. 1
C. sqrt 3
D. 1/2
Answer: sin 60 = cos 30 = sqrt 3 / 2, so the difference is 0.
A. 1
C. sqrt 2
D. 2
Answer: 1 + tan^2 45 = 1 + 1 = 2.
