      Question

      If 8sin²x + 4cos²x − 6 = 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
      8sin²x + 4cos²x = 6 Or,
      8sin²x + 4(1 − sin²x) = 6 Or,
      8sin²x + 4 − 4sin²x = 6 Or,
      4sin²x = 2 Or,
      sin²x = (1/2) Or,
      sinx = (1/√2) (since, 0° < x < 90°)
