If sin(A + B) = cos(A - B) = $$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$$ and A and B are acute angles. The measures of angles A and B (in degrees)will be:
Given, sin(A + B) = $$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$$
$$\Rightarrow$$ sin(A + B) = sin 60
$$\Rightarrow$$ A + B = 60 .......(1)
cos(A - B) = $$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$$
$$\Rightarrow$$ cos(A - B) = cos 30
$$\Rightarrow$$ A - B = 30 ........(2)
Adding equation(1) and equation(2),
2A = 90 $$\Rightarrow$$ A = 45
Substituting A = 45 in equation (1)
45 + B = 60 $$\Rightarrow$$ B = 15
$$\therefore\ $$ A = 45 and B = 15
Hence, the correct answer is Option B
