Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : Only 2 Given: Two statements are given Formula Used: Basic concept of trigonometric ratio and identities We know that if A, B and C is the angles of triangle or their sum is 180° ∴ tan (A + B)/2 = cot (C/2) ∴ sin (A + B)/2 = cos (C/2) ∴ sec (A + B)/2 = cosec (C/2) Where versa vice is possible Calculation: P, Q and R are the angles of a triangle ∴ tan (P + Q)/2 = cot (R/2) But it is given in statement I tan (P + Q)/2 = sec (R/2) ∴ Statement 1 is incorrect Now, X + Y + Z = 180° ∴ Sin (X + Y)/2 = Cos (Z/2) So, Statement 2 is correct Hence, option (2) is correct |
