IF sin(x) = tan(y); for acute angles x and y,
how are the angles related?
A. congruent
B.complementary
C.supplementary
D.not enough information
I'm confused with this question; I think there is not enough information.
This is what I tried.
If sin(x)=tan(y) for acute angles x and y
sin (x)= sin(y)/cos(y)
sin(x) cos(y) = sin(y)
but I don't have the values for x and y, so I can't determine a relationship between the angles.
Please help. Is there another way to approach this question?
I know for complementary angles sin(x)=cos(y), but I don't know any relation involving sin(x) =tan (y)
