Question

    If sin2A = cos(A+24°), then what is the value of A?

    Given that 2A is an acute angle.
    A 16 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 22 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 29 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 24 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Always remember that sin & cos are compliment to each other So sin ɵ = cos( 90-ɵ) So it is given that sin2A = cos(A+24°) Hence 2A + A+24° = 90° So 3A+24° = 90° or 3A =90°-24° =66° or A =  = 22°
