Question:

If tan (5α - 35°) = cot (35° - 2α) then the value of  sin 2α .

Options:

0

 \(\frac{\sqrt {3}}{2}\) 

1

 \(\frac{\sqrt {5}}{2}\) 

Correct Answer:

 \(\frac{\sqrt {3}}{2}\) 

Explanation:

[Concept: tan A = cot B, when A + B = 90°]

Therefore,

(5a - 35° + 35° - 2α) = 90°

3α = 90°

α = 30°

Put this value in find →

⇒  sin 2α

⇒  sin60°

 \(\frac{\sqrt {3}}{2}\)
