Question:

\(\frac{11}{12}\) + cot245° + sin260° + tan230° + sin90° + x = 7, then what should we add in x to make a nearest perfect square?

Options:

0

1

2

3

Correct Answer:

1

Explanation:

⇒ \(\frac{11}{12}\) + cot 2 45° + sin 2 60° + tan 2 30° + sin90° + x = 7

⇒ \(\frac{11}{12}\) + (1)2 + (\(\frac{\sqrt {3}}{2}\))2 + (\(\frac{1}{\sqrt {3}}\))2 + 1 + x = 7

⇒ \(\frac{11}{12}\) + 1 + \(\frac{3}{4}\) + \(\frac{1}{3}\) + 1 + x = 7

⇒ \(\frac{48}{12}\) + x = 7

⇒ x = 7 - 4 

⇒ x = 3

Now, nearest perfect square to 3 is 4. 

so, 3 + (is to be added)
