The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \((\sin A - 1)(2 \cos A - 1) = 0\), we can break it down into two separate equations: 1. \(\sin A - 1 = 0\) 2. \(2 \cos A - 1 = 0\) ### Step 1: Solve the first equation From the first equation, we have: \[ \sin A - 1 = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ \sin A = 1 \] ### Step 2: Find the angle A The sine function equals 1 at: \[ A = 90^\circ \] ### Step 3: Solve the second equation Now, we move to the second equation: \[ 2 \cos A - 1 = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ 2 \cos A = 1 \] Dividing both sides by 2 gives: \[ \cos A = \frac{1}{2} \] ### Step 4: Find the angle A The cosine function equals \(\frac{1}{2}\) at: \[ A = 60^\circ \quad \text{and} \quad A = 300^\circ \quad (\text{in the range of } 0^\circ \text{ to } 360^\circ) \] ### Final Solution Thus, the values of \(A\) that satisfy the original equation are: \[ A = 90^\circ \quad \text{and} \quad A = 60^\circ \] ---
