    In a \[\Delta PQR\], if \[3\sin P+4\cos Q=6\] and \[4\sin Q+3\cos P=1\], then the angle R is equal to:   AIEEE  Solved  Paper-2012

    A) \[\frac{5\pi }{6}\]                               

    B) \[\frac{\pi }{6}\]

    C) \[\frac{\pi }{4}\]                                  

    D) \[\frac{3\pi }{4}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                 \[3\sin P+4\cos Q=6\] ... (i) \[4\sin Q+3\cos P=1\] ... (ii) Squaring and adding (i) & (ii) we get sin \[(P+Q)=\frac{1}{2}\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,P+Q=\frac{\pi }{6}\] or \[\frac{5\pi }{6}\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,R=\frac{5\pi }{6}\] or \[\frac{\pi }{6}\] If \[R=\frac{5\pi }{6}\] then \[0<P,Q<\frac{\pi }{6}\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\cos Q<1\] and \[\sin P<\frac{1}{2}\] \[\Rightarrow 3\sin P+4\cos Q<\frac{11}{2}\] So \[R=\frac{\pi }{6}\]
