Question:

If sin(C + D)= √3/2 and sec (C - D)= 2/√3 then what is the value of C and D ?

Options:

45 degree and 15 degree

30 degree and 30 degree

15 degree and 30 degree

60 degree and 30 degree 

Correct Answer:

45 degree and 15 degree

Explanation:

sin(C + D)= √3/2

C + D = 60°   ..............(i)

 sec (C - D)= 2/√3

C - D = 30°   ................(ii)

Solving (i), (ii)

C = 45°, D = 15°
