The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \( \cos 20^\circ + 2 \sin^2 55^\circ = 1 + \sqrt{2} \sin K^\circ \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Simplify the left-hand side We start with the equation: \[ \cos 20^\circ + 2 \sin^2 55^\circ \] We know that \( \sin^2 \theta = 1 - \cos^2 \theta \), but we can also use the identity \( \sin^2 \theta = \frac{1 - \cos 2\theta}{2} \). Thus, we can rewrite \( \sin^2 55^\circ \) as: \[ \sin^2 55^\circ = \frac{1 - \cos 110^\circ}{2} \] Substituting this back into the equation gives: \[ \cos 20^\circ + 2 \left(\frac{1 - \cos 110^\circ}{2}\right) = \cos 20^\circ + 1 - \cos 110^\circ \] ### Step 2: Rewrite the equation Now, our equation becomes: \[ \cos 20^\circ + 1 - \cos 110^\circ = 1 + \sqrt{2} \sin K^\circ \] We can simplify this to: \[ \cos 20^\circ - \cos 110^\circ = \sqrt{2} \sin K^\circ \] ### Step 3: Use the cosine subtraction formula We apply the cosine subtraction formula: \[ \cos A - \cos B = -2 \sin\left(\frac{A + B}{2}\right) \sin\left(\frac{A - B}{2}\right) \] Let \( A = 20^\circ \) and \( B = 110^\circ \): \[ \cos 20^\circ - \cos 110^\circ = -2 \sin\left(\frac{20^\circ + 110^\circ}{2}\right) \sin\left(\frac{20^\circ - 110^\circ}{2}\right) \] Calculating the averages: \[ \frac{20^\circ + 110^\circ}{2} = 65^\circ, \quad \frac{20^\circ - 110^\circ}{2} = -45^\circ \] Thus, we have: \[ \cos 20^\circ - \cos 110^\circ = -2 \sin 65^\circ \sin(-45^\circ) \] Since \( \sin(-\theta) = -\sin(\theta) \): \[ \cos 20^\circ - \cos 110^\circ = 2 \sin 65^\circ \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \] ### Step 4: Equate and solve for \( K \) Now we have: \[ 2 \sin 65^\circ \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} = \sqrt{2} \sin K^\circ \] This simplifies to: \[ \sqrt{2} \sin 65^\circ = \sqrt{2} \sin K^\circ \] Dividing both sides by \( \sqrt{2} \): \[ \sin 65^\circ = \sin K^\circ \] ### Step 5: Determine \( K \) Since \( K \) is in the interval \( (0, 90^\circ) \), we can directly conclude: \[ K = 65^\circ \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of \( K \) is: \[ \boxed{65} \]
