Question
Solve for ' $\theta$ ': $\cot ^2(\theta-5)^{\circ}=3$
✓
Answer
$ \cot ^2(\theta-5)^{\circ}=3$
$\Rightarrow \cot (\theta-5)^{\circ}=\sqrt{3}$
$\Rightarrow \cot (\theta-5)^{\circ}=\cot 30^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow(\theta-5)^{\circ}=30^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \theta=30^{\circ}+5^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \theta=35^{\circ} .$
$\Rightarrow \cot (\theta-5)^{\circ}=\sqrt{3}$
$\Rightarrow \cot (\theta-5)^{\circ}=\cot 30^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow(\theta-5)^{\circ}=30^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \theta=30^{\circ}+5^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \theta=35^{\circ} .$

Two circles touch internally. The sum of their areas is 170 $\pi cm ^2$ and the distance between their centres is 4 cm. Find the radii of the circles.
[Hint. Let the radii of the given circles be R and (R + 4) cm respectively. Then
$\begin{aligned} \pi(R+4)^2+\pi R^2=170 \pi & \Rightarrow(R+4)^2+R^2=170 \\ & \Rightarrow R^2+4 R-77=0 \Rightarrow(R+11)(R-7)=0\end{aligned}$
