Answer : The correct option is, (A) 30°

Step-by-step explanation :

As we know that:


\cos 30^o=(√(3))/(2) ........(1)

According to trigonometric function,


\cos \theta=(Base)/(Hypotenuse) .........(2)

By comparing 1 and 2, we can say that:


\cos 30^o=(√(3))/(2)=(Base)/(Hypotenuse)

Now we have to determine the value of perpendicular by using Pythagoras theorem.


(Hypotenus)^2=(Perpendicular)^2+(Base)^2


(2)^2=(Perpendicular)^2+(√(3))^2


4=(Perpendicular)^2+3


(Perpendicular)^2=4-3


(Perpendicular)^2=1


Perpendicular=1

Now we have to determine the value of
\sin \theta.

According to trigonometric function,


\sin \theta=(Perpendicular)/(Hypotenuse)


\sin \theta=(1)/(2)

At
\theta =30^o


\sin 30^o=(1)/(2)

Hence, the value of
\theta is
30^o
