Directions: Each of these questions contains two statements: Assertion [A] and Reason [R]. Each of these questions also has four alternative choices, any one of which is the correct answer. You have to select one of the codes [a], [b], [c] and [d] given below. |
Assertion The distance between the points \[\left( 10\,\cos \,30{}^\circ ,\,0 \right)\] and \[\left( 0,\,10\,\cos \,60{}^\circ \right)\]is 10 units |
Reason Mid-point of line segment joining (a, b) and (c, d) is given by |
\[\left( \frac{a-c}{2},\,\frac{b-d}{2} \right)\]. |
A) A is true, R is true; R is a correct explanation for A.
B) A is true, R is true; R is not a correct explanation for A.
C) A is true; R is False.
D) A is false; R is true.
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Here, \[{{x}_{1}}=10\,\cos 30{}^\circ\]\[{{y}_{1}}=0\] and \[{{y}_{1}}=0\], |
\[x{{y}_{2}}=10\,\cos \,60{}^\circ\] |
\[\therefore\] Distance between the points |
\[=\sqrt{{{\left( 0-10\,\cos \,30{}^\circ \right)}^{2}}+{{\left( 10\,\cos \,60\,{}^\circ -0 \right)}^{2}}}\] |
\[=\sqrt{{{\left( -10\times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \right)}^{2}}+{{\left( 10\times \frac{1}{2} \right)}^{2}}}\] |
\[\left[ \because \,\,\,\cos \,30{}^\circ =\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\,and\,\cos \,60{}^\circ =\frac{1}{2} \right]\] |
\[=\sqrt{\frac{300}{4}+\frac{100}{4}}\] |
\[=\sqrt{\frac{400}{4}}=\sqrt{100}=10\] units |
Hence, Assertion is true but Reason is false as the mid-point is \[\left( \frac{a+c}{2},\frac{b+d}{2} \right).\] |
