Q9(i):
In triangle ABC, right-angled at B, if $\tan A = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$, find the value of: (i) $\sin A \cos C + \cos A \sin C$

Solution :

Given: In $\triangle ABC$, $\angle B = 90^\circ$ and $\tan A = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$.

To find: The value of $\sin A \cos C + \cos A \sin C$.

B C A Adjacent (AB) Opposite (BC) Hypotenuse (AC)

Step 1: Determine the sides of the triangle.
In a right-angled triangle, $\tan A = \frac{\text{Opposite side to } A}{\text{Adjacent side to } A} = \frac{BC}{AB}$.
Given $\tan A = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$, we can assume $BC = 1k$ and $AB = \sqrt{3}k$, where $k$ is a positive constant.

Step 2: Calculate the hypotenuse using the Pythagoras Theorem.
The Pythagoras Theorem states: $AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2$.
$AC^2 = (\sqrt{3}k)^2 + (1k)^2$
$AC^2 = 3k^2 + 1k^2 = 4k^2$
$AC = \sqrt{4k^2} = 2k$.

Step 3: Determine the trigonometric ratios.
For angle $A$:
$\sin A = \frac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Hypotenuse}} = \frac{BC}{AC} = \frac{1k}{2k} = \frac{1}{2}$
$\cos A = \frac{\text{Adjacent}}{\text{Hypotenuse}} = \frac{AB}{AC} = \frac{\sqrt{3}k}{2k} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

For angle $C$:
$\sin C = \frac{\text{Opposite to } C}{\text{Hypotenuse}} = \frac{AB}{AC} = \frac{\sqrt{3}k}{2k} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$
$\cos C = \frac{\text{Adjacent to } C}{\text{Hypotenuse}} = \frac{BC}{AC} = \frac{1k}{2k} = \frac{1}{2}$

Step 4: Evaluate the expression $\sin A \cos C + \cos A \sin C$.
Substitute the values obtained in Step 3:
$= (\frac{1}{2}) \times (\frac{1}{2}) + (\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}) \times (\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2})$
$= \frac{1}{4} + \frac{3}{4}$
$= \frac{1 + 3}{4}$
$= \frac{4}{4} = 1$.

Final Answer: 1
