Also, sum of the interior angles = ( 2n − 4 ) × 90°
[∵ Sum of the interior angles of a polygon of n sides = ( 2n − 4 ) × 90° ]
5
∴ ( 2n − 4 ) × 90 = 120n + n ( n − 1) ⇒ 360n − 720 = 240n + 5n 2 − 5n
2
⇒ 5n 2 − 125n + 720 = 0 ⇒ n 2 − 25n + 144 = 0 ⇒ ( n − 16 )( n − 9 ) = 0 ⇒ n = 9 or n = 16
But when n = 16 , then the largest angle is 195° which is more than 180° . Hence, n ≠ 16
∴ The polygon has 9 sides.

Now, the hour-hand moves through one complete rotation ( 360° ) in 12 hours

∴ The angles are 60° − 20°, 60°, 60° + 20° = 40°, 60°, 80° , Hence, the option (b) is correct.
Alternatively :
If angles of a triangle are in A.P., then one of the angles must be 60° .
∴ Option (c) is not a solution
Option (d) is not a solution because their sum is not equal to 180° .
In option (a), the angles are in A.P, but greatest angle ≠ double the least angle.

⇒ ( k + 2 ) sin x cos x = 0 which can be true for all x if k = −2

Now, let us group the terms as

= cos ( 54° + θ ) ⋅ sin ( 36° + θ ) + sin ( 54° + θ ) ⋅ cos ( 36° + θ )

= sin ( 54° + θ + 36° + θ ) = sin ( 90° + 2θ ) = cos 2θ

sin ( n + 1) α − sin ( n − 1)α

 70° + 50°   70° − 50° 

But given, n is odd, ∴ ( −1) = −1 . Therefore, the value of the expression is 0.

85. Ans. (c), Given, cot α cot β = 2 …(1)

cos (α + β ) cos α cos β − sin α sin β

= 1 − sin 2 A + cos ( 90° − A) cos ( B − C ) + 1 = 2 − sin 2 A + sin A cos ( B − C )

= 2 − sin A ( sin A − cos ( B − C ) ) = 2 − sin A cos ( B + C ) − cos ( B − C ) 

= 2 + sin A ⋅ 2 sin B sin C = 2 + 2 sin A sin B sin C

= 2 ( 2sin A cos A ) .cos 2 A = 2sin 2 A.cos 2 A = sin 4 A.

Adding (i) and (ii) we get, 2 sec θ = + =

1 2 cos x 1 2sin x cos x + 1

∵ cos (180° − θ ) = − cos θ 

= ( cosec 2θ − 1) + ( sec2 θ − 1) + 2 = sec2 θ + cos ec 2θ , Hence, option (a) is correct.

= 2sin C [ 2sin A sin B ] = 4sin A sin B sin C.

= 2sin C {2sin A sin B} = 4sin A sin B sin C .

⇒ 4 ( cos x + sin x ) + 4 ( cos 3 x + sin 3 x ) + 8 ( cos x cos 3 x + sin x sin 3 x ) = 1

= 8cos 4 θ − 6 cos 2 θ + 8 cos 4 θ − 6 cos 2 θ + 1 = 16 cos 4 θ − 12 cos 2 θ + 1.
