Question : If $\sin(A+B)=\sin A\cos B+\cos A \sin B$, then the value of $\sin75°$ is:

Option 1: $\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{\sqrt{2}}$

Option 2:

$\frac{\sqrt{2}+1}{2\sqrt{2}}$

Option 3:

$\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{2\sqrt{2}}$

Option 4:

$\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{2}$

Team Careers360 8th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer:

$\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{2\sqrt{2}}$


Solution : Given: $\sin(A+B)=\sin A\cos B+\cos A\sin B$
 So, $\sin75°=\sin(45°+30°)$
= $\sin 45°\cos30°+\cos45°\sin30°$
= $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}×\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}×\frac{1}{2}$
= $\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{2\sqrt{2}}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{2\sqrt{2}}$.
