SSC CGL 2023 PYQ — Question 60

SSC CGL - 20 July 2023 - Shift 3 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q60

The maximum value of (sin12 θ\theta+ cos20 θ\theta) for all the real values of θ\theta is:

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 1.

Given that

The maximum value of (sin¹² θ\theta+ cos20 θ\theta)

Concept used

The maximum value of sin θ\theta = 1 , when θ\theta = 90º

The value of cos 90º = 0

Hence, the value of (sin12 θ\theta+ cos20 θ\theta) = 1 + 0 = 1
