The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \( \sin(120^\circ - A) = \sin(120^\circ - B) \) under the constraints \( 0 < A, B < \pi \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Use the property of sine We know that if \( \sin x = \sin y \), then: 1. \( x = y + 360^\circ k \) for any integer \( k \) 2. \( x = 180^\circ - y + 360^\circ k \) for any integer \( k \) In our case, we can set: \[ 120^\circ - A = 120^\circ - B \quad \text{(Case 1)} \] or \[ 120^\circ - A = 180^\circ - (120^\circ - B) \quad \text{(Case 2)} \] ### Step 2: Solve Case 1 From Case 1: \[ 120^\circ - A = 120^\circ - B \] This simplifies to: \[ A = B \] ### Step 3: Solve Case 2 From Case 2: \[ 120^\circ - A = 180^\circ - 120^\circ + B \] This simplifies to: \[ 120^\circ - A = 60^\circ + B \] Rearranging gives: \[ A + B = 120^\circ - 60^\circ \] \[ A + B = 60^\circ \] ### Step 4: Combine results From the two cases, we have: 1. \( A = B \) 2. \( A + B = 60^\circ \) Substituting \( B = A \) into the second equation gives: \[ A + A = 60^\circ \] \[ 2A = 60^\circ \] \[ A = 30^\circ \] Thus, \( B = 30^\circ \) as well. ### Final Answer The values of \( A \) and \( B \) are: \[ A = 30^\circ, \quad B = 30^\circ \]
