      Question

      If 5sin²x + 3cos²x − 4 = 0, then find the value of

      sinx, given that 0° < x < 90°.
      A 1 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 1/√2 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 1/2 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D √3/2 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Given
      5sin²x + 3cos²x = 4 Or,
      5sin²x + 3(1 − sin²x) = 4 Or,
      5sin²x + 3 − 3sin²x = 4 Or,
      2sin²x = 1 Or,
      sin²x = (1/2) Or,
      sinx = (1/√2) (since, 0° < x < 90°)
