Question:
If $\sin\theta=\cos\theta$ for an acute angle $\theta$, then $\theta$ equals:
$0^\circ$
$30^\circ$
$45^\circ$
$60^\circ$
Step-by-Step Solution
Key Concept: Recall that $\sin45^\circ=\cos45^\circ=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt2}$, the only acute angle where the two are equal.
$\sin45^\circ=\cos45^\circ=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt2}$, so $\theta=45^\circ$. [1.0 Mark]
Correct Answer: $45^\circ$
