cos A = 32\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2} and sin B = 12\dfrac{1}{2}

Assertion (A): tan (A + B) = 3\sqrt{3}

Reason (R): cos A = 32\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2} ⇒ A = 30°

sin B = 12\dfrac{1}{2} ⇒ B = 30°

  1. A is true, R is false.

  2. A is false, R is true.

  3. Both A and R are true and R is correct reason for A.

  4. Both A and R are true and R is incorrect reason for A.

Answer

Given, cos A = 32\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2} and sin B = 12\dfrac{1}{2}

⇒ cos A = cos 30° and sin B = sin 30°

⇒ A = 30° and B = 30°

So, reason (R) is true.

tan(A + B) = tan(30° + 30°) = tan 60° = 3\sqrt{3}

Thus, tan (A + B) = 3\sqrt{3}

So, assertion (A) is true.

∴ Both A and R are true and R is correct reason for A.

Hence, option 3 is the correct option.
