The question, in short

Given that m = 141 solves sin m° = 0.63, find the other solution for 0 < m < 90, rounded to the nearest whole number.

Summarised in our own words. Use the official paper for the exact wording and any diagrams.

Solution · 1 mark

  1. 1sin m° = sin(180 − m)°
  2. 2m = 180 − 141 = 39
  3. 3(Check: sin⁻¹ 0.63 = 39.05… ≈ 39)
