Given one or more trigonometric equations as constraints, the question asks to deduce exact values of angles, derive a related identity, or determine consequent expressions (e.g., finding tan²x or showing all angles must equal a specific value).
``$\sin^{2} \alpha + \sin^{2} \beta = 1$'' is ``$\cos \alpha + \cos \beta = 0$'' a A. sufficient but not necessary condition B. necessary but not sufficient condition C. necessary and sufficient condition D. neither sufficient nor necessary condition
In the triangle $ABC$, the angle $\angle BAC$ is a root of the equation $$\sqrt { 3 } \cos x + \sin x = 1 / 2$$ Then the triangle $ABC$ is (A) obtuse angled (B) right angled (C) acute angled but not equilateral (D) equilateral
If the interior angles of a triangle $ABC$ satisfy the equality, $$\sin ^ { 2 } A + \sin ^ { 2 } B + \sin ^ { 2 } C = 2 \left( \cos ^ { 2 } A + \cos ^ { 2 } B + \cos ^ { 2 } C \right) ,$$ prove that the triangle must have a right angle.
If $\tan A$ and $\tan B$ are the roots of the quadratic equation, $3 x ^ { 2 } - 10 x - 25 = 0$ then the value of $3 \sin ^ { 2 } ( A + B ) - 10 \sin ( A + B ) \cdot \cos ( A + B ) - 25 \cos ^ { 2 } ( A + B )$ is (1) 25 (2) - 25 (3) - 10 (4) 10

If circumcentre of $\Delta A B C$ coincides with origin and its orthocentre lies on $y$-axis, then the value of $\left( \frac { \cos 3 \alpha + \cos 3 \beta + \cos 3 \gamma } { \cos \alpha \cdot \cos \beta \cdot \cos \gamma } \right) ^ { 2 }$ is equal to:
(i) Show, with working, that $$x ^ { 3 } - ( 1 + \cos \theta + \sin \theta ) x ^ { 2 } + ( \cos \theta \sin \theta + \cos \theta + \sin \theta ) x - \sin \theta \cos \theta ,$$ equals $$( x - 1 ) \left( x ^ { 2 } - ( \cos \theta + \sin \theta ) x + \cos \theta \sin \theta \right)$$ Deduce that the cubic in (1) has roots $$1 , \quad \cos \theta , \quad \sin \theta$$ (ii) Give the roots when $\theta = \frac { \pi } { 3 }$.

Show that for each such $\theta$ the cubic (1) is the same.
