Suppose angles a and B are the two acute angles in a right triangle and that b < a. Apply the relationship between sine and cosine todetermine which statements are correct.sin(6x - 10) = cos(4x + 10)A)x = 9B)a = 46°a = 48°D)B = 42°E)B = 44

The right statements are: A, B and E

Sin(A)=cos(B)

then we check if using x=9 this holds true:

sin(6x-10)=cos(4x+10)

sin((6*9)-10) = sin(44º)

cos(4x+10)=cos(46)

Sin(44)=0.694=cos(46)

then a is true

Now, we know that b
