The value of R is 28° (Degrees), if the equation sin 62° = cos R true when 0° < R < 60°.

Explanation:

The given is,

sin 62° = cos R

0° < R < 90°

Step:1

Form the given equation,

sin 62° = cos R.......................(1)

Where,

sin 62° = 0.88295

From the value of sin 62, equation (1) becomes

sin 62° = cos R

0.88295 = cos R

R =
cos^(-1) 0.88295

R = 27.9997

≅ 28°

R = 28°

Step:2

Check for solution,

From equation 1,

sin 62° = cos R

Substitute R = 28°,

sin 62° = cos 28°

0.88295 = 0.88295

Result:

The value of R is 28° (Degrees), if the equation sin 62° = cos R true when 0° < R < 60°.
