Transformations of inverse trigonometric functions need to be handled with care. Consider the identity sin2theta=(2tantheta)/(1+tan^2theta) in its domain of definition. Suppose we set tantheta=x, we have sin2theta=(2x)/(1+x^2) Taking sin^(-1)of both sides yields 2theta=sin^(-1).(2x)/1+x^2i.e.,2tan^(-1)x=sin^(-1).(2x)/(1+ x^2). But we will discover that the above identity is not valid for all x. Choose x=sqrt3, LHS =2tan^(-1)sqrt3=2xxpi/3=(2pi)/3, RHS=sin.(2sqrt3)/(1+3)=sin^(-1).(sqrt3)/2=pi/3. And so left hand and right hand side don't match. The reason is that we have disregarded the principal values of inverse functions. So it is well to remember that the iverse trigonometric formmulae have restrictions attached to the argument. When the values ofx lie outside the interval of validity then the formula needs to be corrected. tan^(-1). (pi/2)equals |

PQ is the double ordinate of the parabola y^(2)=4x which passes through the focus S. DeltaPQA is an isosceles right angle triangle, where A is on the axis of the parabola to the right of focus. Line PA meets the parabola at C and QA meets the parabola at B. The circumradius of trapezium PBCQ is |
|
Answer» <P>`6sqrt(5)` For `y^(2)=4x`, the coordinates of the ends of latus rectum are P(1,2) and Q(1,-2). `DeltaPAQ` is isosceles right - angled. Therefore, the slope of PA is -1 and its equation is y-2=-(x-1), i.e., x+y-3=0. Similarly, the equation of line QB is x-y-3=0. Solving x+y-3=0 with the parabola `y^(2)=4x`, we have `(3-x)^(2)=4x,i.e.,x^(2)-10x+9=0` `:.x=1,9` Therefore, the coordinates of B and C are (9,-6) and (9,6), respectively. AREA of trapezium `PBCQ=(1)/(2)xx(12+4)xx8=64` SQ. units Let the circumcenter of trapezium PBCQ be T(h,0). Then, PT=BT `orsqrt((h-1)^(2)+4)=sqrt((h-9)^(2)+36)` `or-2h+=-18h+81+36` `or16h=112` `orh=7` Hence, radius is `sqrt(40)=2sqrt(10`. Let the inradius of `DeltaAPQ` be `r_(1)`. Then, `r_(1)=(Delta_(1))/(s_(1))` `((1)/(2)xx4xx2)/((1)/(2)(4+2sqrt(4+4)))` `=(2)/(1+sqrt(2))=2(sqrt(2)-1)` Let the inradius of `DELTAABC` be `r_(2)`.

|
Answer» 96 sq. UNITS For `y^(2)=4X`, the coordinates of the ends of latus rectum are P(1,2) and Q(1,-2). `DeltaPAQ` is isosceles RIGHT - angled. Therefore, the slope of PA is -1 and its equation is y-2=-(x-1), i.e., x+y-3=0. Similarly, the equation of line QB is x-y-3=0. Solving x+y-3=0 with the parabola `y^(2)=4x`, we have `(3-x)^(2)=4x,i.e.,x^(2)-10x+9=0` `:.x=1,9` Therefore, the coordinates of B and C are (9,-6) and (9,6), respectively.

Then, `r_(1)=(Delta_(1))/(s_(1))` `((1)/(2)xx4xx2)/((1)/(2)(4+2sqrt(4+4)))` `=(2)/(1+sqrt(2))=2(sqrt(2)-1)` Let the inradius of `DeltaABC` be `r_(2)`. Then, `r_(2)=(Delta_(2))/(s_(2))` `=((1)/2xx12xx6)/((1)/(2)(12+2sqrt(36+36)))` `=(6)/(1+sqrt(2))=6(sqrt(2)-1)` `:." "(r_(2))/(r_(1))=3` |

|
Answer» `2:1` For `y^(2)=4x`, the coordinates of the ends of LATUS rectum are P(1,2) and Q(1,-2). `DeltaPAQ` is isosceles right - angled. Therefore, the slope of PA is -1 and its EQUATION is y-2=-(x-1), i.e., x+y-3=0. SIMILARLY, the equation of line QB is x-y-3=0.
