Options

A. `pi//2`
B. `pi//3`
C. `pi//4`
D. `pi//6`

Explanation

To solve the problem, we need to find the angle \( B \) in triangle \( ABC \) given the equation \( \sin A - \cos B = \cos C \).

### Step-by-Step Solution:

1. **Start with the given equation:**
\[ \sin A - \cos B = \cos C \]

2. **Rearrange the equation to isolate \( \sin A \):**
\[ \sin A = \cos B + \cos C \]

3. **Use the identity for \( \cos C \):**
Since in a triangle \( A + B + C = \pi \), we can express \( C \) in terms of \( A \) and \( B \):
\[ C = \pi - A - B \]
Therefore, we can use the cosine of the angle:
\[ \cos C = \cos(\pi - A - B) = -\cos(A + B) \]

4. **Substituting \( \cos C \) back into the equation:**
\[ \sin A = \cos B - \cos(A + B) \]

5. **Using the cosine addition formula:**
The cosine addition formula states:
\[ \cos(A + B) = \cos A \cos B - \sin A \sin B \]
Thus, we can rewrite our equation:
\[ \sin A = \cos B - (\cos A \cos B - \sin A \sin B) \]

6. **Rearranging gives:**
\[ \sin A + \sin A \sin B = \cos B - \cos A \cos B \]
\[ \sin A (1 + \sin B) = \cos B (1 - \cos A) \]

7. **Using the identity \( \sin A = \sin(\pi - B - C) = \sin(B + C) \):**
Since \( A + B + C = \pi \), we can express \( \sin A \) in terms of \( B \) and \( C \):
\[ \sin A = \sin(B + C) \]

8. **Now, we can use the sine addition formula:**
\[ \sin(B + C) = \sin B \cos C + \cos B \sin C \]

9. **Substituting back into our equation:**
\[ \sin B \cos C + \cos B \sin C = \cos B + \cos C \]

10. **Equating and simplifying:**
We can analyze the equation further, but we can also directly find the value of \( B \) by using the derived relationships.

11. **Using the triangle sum property:**
From \( A + B + C = \pi \), we can deduce that if \( A = B - C \), then substituting gives us:
\[ 2B = \pi \implies B = \frac{\pi}{2} \]

### Final Answer:
Thus, the angle \( B \) is:
\[ B = \frac{\pi}{2} \text{ or } 90^\circ \]
