Answer:

x = 20º

Explanation:

we know that sin x = cos(90-x)

Hence

sin 30º = cos(90 - 30)º

sin 30º = cos 60º

hence sin 30º can be also written as cos 60º

Also, as given

sin 30º = cos(3x)

therefore

cos 60º = cos(3x)

as we have cos on both side then angle for both side will be same

60º = 3x

=> 60º / 3 = x

=> x = 20º

Then x = 20º is answer.
