QUESTION:-
If ∠A and ∠B are acute angles such that cos A = cos B, then show that ∠ A = ∠B.
ANSWER:-
As they are both acute angles, take two right angled triangles ACD and BCE.
The point C has the right angle.
Cos = the ratio of the adjacent side and the hypotenuse.
As the CosA=CosB, the ratios are equal for the 2 triangles.
They also have one angle C equal.
We can thus prove that the two triangles are similar.
And by the rules of similarity of triangles, all corresponding angles of the triangles must be equal. Thus, <A=<B
