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

      where 0° < A, B < 90°, then find the value of ‘A’.
      A 36° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 24° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 42° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 30° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      sin (3A − 2B) = (√3/2)
      Or, sin (3A − 2B) = sin 60°
      Or, 3A − 2B = 60° ----------- (I)

      And, cos (A + B) = (1/2)
      Or, cos (A + B) = cos 60°
      Or, A + B = 60° -------------- (II)

      On solving equation I + 2 × equation II, we get;
      3A − 2B + 2 × (A + B) = 60 + 2 × 60
      Or, 3A − 2B + 2A + 2B = 180°
      Or, 5A = 180°
      So, ‘A’ = 36°
