The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \(3\tan A - 5\cos B = \sqrt{3}\) given that \(B = 90^\circ\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Substitute the value of \(B\) Since \(B = 90^\circ\), we can substitute this value into the equation. We know that \(\cos 90^\circ = 0\). \[ 3\tan A - 5\cos(90^\circ) = \sqrt{3} \] This simplifies to: \[ 3\tan A - 5 \cdot 0 = \sqrt{3} \] So, we have: \[ 3\tan A = \sqrt{3} \] ### Step 2: Isolate \(\tan A\) Now, we can isolate \(\tan A\) by dividing both sides of the equation by 3: \[ \tan A = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{3} \] ### Step 3: Simplify \(\tan A\) We can recognize that \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}\) can be rewritten using the identity: \[ \tan A = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \] ### Step 4: Find the angle \(A\) We know that \(\tan 30^\circ = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\). Therefore, we can conclude: \[ A = 30^\circ \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of \(A\) is: \[ \boxed{30^\circ} \] ---
