If sin2theta=cos3thetaa n dtheta is an a...

If `sin2theta=cos3thetaa n dtheta` is an acute angle, then `sintheta` equal `(sqrt(5)-1)/4` (b) `-((sqrt(5)-1)/4)` `(sqrt(5)+1)/4` (d) `(-sqrt(5)-1)/4`

A

`(sqrt(5)-1)/(4)`

B

`-((sqrt(5)-1)/(4))`

C

`(sqrt(5)+1)/(4)`

D

`(-sqrt(5)-1)/(4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`sin 2 theta=cos 3theta`
or `2 sin theta cos theta=4cos^(3)theta-cos theta`
or `2sin theta=4(1-sin^(2)theta)-3`
or `4sin^(2)theta+2sin theta-1=0`
or `sin theta=(sqrt(5)-1)/(4)`
