To solve the problem, we will make use of the identity:
ANGLE α
The angle lies in the second quadrant. The only positive ratio is the sine.
If we have that:
Displaying this on a triangle for ease of working, we have:
Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse will be:
Therefore, we have that:
ANGLE β
This angle lies in the fourth quadrant. Only the cosine ratio is positive in this quadrant.
We are given in the question:
Displaying this on a triangle for ease of working, we have:
Therefore, using the Pythagorean Triplets, we have that:
Therefore, we have that:
SOLVING THE IDENTITY
Applying the identity quoted earlier, we have:
