Question 10 [MATHEMATICS Specimen Paper Semester-2 2022]

Two vertical poles of different heights are standing 20m away from each other on the level ground. The angle of elevation of the top of the first pole from the foot of the second pole is 60° and angle of elevation of the top of the second pole from the foot of the first pole is 30°. Find the difference between the heights of two poles. (Take √3 = 1.73)

Solution

OR

Solution

Question 13 [MATHEMATICS Specimen Paper Semester-2 2022]

Trigonometry in the form of triangulation forms the basis of navigation, whether it is by land, sea or air. GPS a radio navigation system helps to locate our position on earth with the help of satellites. A guard, stationed at the top of a 240m tower, observed an unidentified boat coming towards it. A clinometer or inclinometer is an instrument used for measuring angles or slopes(tilt). The guard used the clinometer to measure the angle of depression of the boat coming towards the lighthouse and found it to be 30°.

(Lighthouse of Mumbai Harbour. Picture credits - Times of India Travel)

(i) Make a labelled figure on the basis of the given information and calculate the distance of the boat from the foot of the observation tower.

(ii) After 10 minutes, the guard observed that the boat was approaching the tower and its distance from tower is reduced by 240(√3 - 1) m. He immediately raised the alarm. What was the new angle of depression of the boat from the top of the observation tower?

Solution

Question 14 [MATHEMATICS Specimen Paper Semester-2 2022]

Push-ups are a fast and effective exercise for building strength. These are helpful in almost all sports including athletics. While the push-up primarily targets the muscles of the chest, arms, and shoulders, support required from other muscles helps in toning up the whole body.Nitesh wants to participate in the push-up challenge. He can currently make 3000 push-ups in one hour. But he wants to achieve a target of 3900 push-ups in 1 hour for which he practices regularly. With each day of practice, he is able to make 5 more push-ups in one hour as compared to the previous day. If on first day of practice he makes 3000 push-ups and continues to practice regularly till his target is achieved. Keeping the above situation in mind answer the following questions:

i) Form an A.P representing the number of push-ups per day and hence find the minimum number of days he needs to practice before the day his goal is accomplished?

ii) Find the total number of push-ups performed by Nitesh up to the day his goal is achieved.
