Question

If sin54+bcos72=2root5

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A = 18°

Therefore, 5A = 90°

⇒ 2A + 3A = 90˚

⇒ 2θ = 90˚ - 3A

Taking sine on both sides, we get

sin 2A = sin (90˚ - 3A) = cos 3A

⇒ 2 sin A cos A = 4 cos3 A - 3 cos A

⇒ 2 sin A cos A - 4 cos3 A + 3 cos A = 0

⇒ cos A (2 sin A - 4 cos2 A + 3) = 0
