If tan (A - B) = 1/√3 and tan (A + B) = √3, 0° < (A + B) < 90° and A > B then find A and B.

Given: (i) tan (A - B) = 1/√3


(ii) tan (A + B) = √3


Since, tan (A - B) = 1/√3


tan (A - B) = tan 30° ( 0° < (A + B) < 90°, tan 30° = 1/√3)


A - B = 30° .......................................... (1)


Also, tan (A + B) = √3


tan (A + B) = tan 60° ( 0° < (A + B) < 90°, tan 60° = √3)


A + B = 60° .......................................... (2)


On adding equation (1) and (2), we get,


2A = 90° A = 45°


Putting this value in equation (2), we get,


B = 60° - A = 60° - 45° B = 15°


A = 45°, B = 15°
