Solution

To solve for x and y

Given equations are

4sinx+31cosy=11

5.16sinx2.31cosy=2

Let ,
4sinx=a

31cosy=b

On Putting these value ,equations becomes

a+b=11
5a22b=2

On Adding both equations , we get

5a2+2a24=0

On solving this equation , we get
a=2anda=24/10

Here ,
4sinx=24/10 is not Possible
Therefore , we take
4sinx=2

sinx=12

x=Π6
On Putting this value , we get

a+b=11
2+b=11

b=9

31cosy=9

cosy=12

y=2Π3ory=Π3

Hence ,
x=Π6and

y=2Π3
