A ray makes angles \(\frac{\pi}{3}\) and \(\frac{\pi}{4}\) with \(Y\) and \(Z\)-axes respectively. Then, the value of the sine of the angle made by the ray with \(X\)-axis is

  1. A \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\)
  2. B \(\frac{1}{2}\)
  3. C \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\)
  4. D \(1\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

If \(\alpha, \beta, \gamma\) are angles made by a ray with \(X, Y\) and \(Z\)-axes respectively, then \(\cos ^2 \alpha+\cos ^2 \beta+\cos ^2 \gamma=1\)…
