Question on: WAEC Mathematics - 2010

If sin 3y = cos 2y and 0o (\leq) 90o, find the value of y

A
18o
B
36o
C
54o
D
90o
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: A

sin 3y = cos 2y, but sin (\theta) = cos(90 - (\theta))

sin 3y = cos(90 - 3y)

cos(90 - 3y) = cos 2y

90 - 3y = 2y

5y = 90

y = (\frac{90}{5})

y = 18o
