Answer:
sin(x) = 0.30 and cos(x) = 0.95 or -0.95 are the answers.
Explanation:
cos^2(x) = 3 sin(x)
.
But, we know that cos^2(x)+ sin^2(x) = 1
i.e. cos^2(x) = 1- sin^2(x)
.
Hence, on comparing these 2 equations, we get,
3 sin(x) = 1 - sin^2(x)
.
Just for the sake of simplicity, assume sin(x) = y.
.
Thus, 3y= 1 - y^2
so, y^2 + 3y - 1 =0
.
This is a quadratic euqation. On solving it, we get,
y = [-3 +- squareroot(13)] /2.
y = 0.30 or -3.30.
.
Therefore, y = sin(x) = 0.30 or -3.30.
.
However, the value of sin(x) lies always between -1 and +1. Hence, -3.30 is a wrong answer.
So, sin(x) = 0.30
.
Now, we can also calculate the value of cos(x).
cos^2(x) = 3 sin(x) = 3x0.30 = 0.90
.
Thus, cos(x) = squareroot(0.90)
cos(x) = 0.95 or -0.95
