Mathematics 2009 JAMB Past Questions - Question 34: Find the value of sin 45° - cos 30°
A:
B:
C:
D:
Correct Answer
D
Explanation
1/√2 - √3/2 = 2-√6/2√2 X 2√2/2√2 = 4√2 - 4√3/8 = √2 - √3/2To find the value of sin 45° - cos 30°, we can use the trigonometric values of these angles.sin 45° = √2/2cos 30° = √3/2Substituting these values into the expression:sin 45° - cos 30° = √2/2 - √3/2To simplify the expression, we need to rationalize the denominator:(sin 45° - cos 30°) * (2/2) = (√2 - √3) / 2Therefore, the value of sin 45° - cos 30° is (√2 - √3) / 2.
