Q3

Write the values of sin30\sin 30^\circ, cos60\cos 60^\circ, tan45\tan 45^\circ, and sec60\sec 60^\circ.

Answer Revealed
Direct Answer:
sin30=12\sin30^\circ=\frac12, cos60=12\cos60^\circ=\frac12, tan45=1\tan45^\circ=1, and sec60=2\sec60^\circ=2.

Simple Explanation

These are standard trigonometric values from the NCERT table.

Exam-Ready Structure

From standard trigonometric ratios: sin30=12\sin30^\circ=\frac12; cos60=12\cos60^\circ=\frac12; tan45=1\tan45^\circ=1; and since secθ=1cosθ\sec\theta=\frac1{\cos\theta}, sec60=2\sec60^\circ=2.

Key Points

  • sin30=12\sin30^\circ=\frac12, cos60=12\cos60^\circ=\frac12, tan45=1\tan45^\circ=1, and sec60=2\sec60^\circ=2.
  • Use the NCERT formula or theorem carefully.
  • Write units and final conclusion where applicable.
