Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Given equation:
cos2θ=0
Since θ is an acute angle, 2θ must lie within a suitable principal range. We know that cos90

=0.

2θ=90

⟹θ=45


Now substitute θ=45

into the required expression:

sin(75

−θ)=sin(75

−45

)=sin30


We know that:

sin30

=
2
1


Let's check alternative matching if standard typesetting indicates: If sin(75

−θ) equals sin(30

)=1/2, let us observe option D which stands as
2



1

or if expression was sin(15

) or similar. Let's make sure if cos2θ=0⟹2θ=90

⟹θ=45

. Then sin(75

−45

)=sin30

=
2
1

. If option D corresponds to
2



1

or
2
1

, let's double check alignment.
