      If sin (3A − 4B) = (1/2) and cos (A + B) = (√2/2),

      where 0° < A, B < 90°, then find the value of ‘A’.
      A 30° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 40° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 20° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 15° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      sin (3A − 4B) = (1/2)
      Or, sin (3A − 4B) = sin 30°
      Or, 3A − 4B = 30° ----------- (I)

      And, cos (A + B) = (√2/2)
      Or, cos (A + B) = cos 45°
      Or, A + B = 45° -------------- (II)

      On solving equation I + 4 × equation II, we get;
      3A − 4B + 4 × (A + B) = 30 + 4 × 45
      Or, 3A − 4B + 4A + 4B = 210°
      Or, 7A = 210°
      So, ‘A’ = 30°
