Click For Summary
To solve simultaneous equations involving sine and cosine, start by squaring both sides of the equations. Then, apply the identity sin²θ + cos²θ = 1 to simplify the expressions. This approach allows for the extraction of V sinθ and V cosθ terms. The discussion emphasizes the importance of using trigonometric identities for solving such equations. Following these steps leads to a successful resolution of the problem.

thank you for reply , first have to take square on both sides of equation 1 and 2 than use identity ?
 
Get
V sin\theta_s, V cos\theta_s
exlpcit and use the identity.
