Correct Answer: 60° and 30°
Solution :
$\sin (A-B)=\frac{1}{2}$
⇒ $\sin (A-B)=\sin 30^\circ$
⇒ $(A - B) = 30^\circ$
⇒ $A = 30^\circ + B$
And
$\sin (A+B)=1$
⇒ $\sin (A+B)=\sin 90^\circ$
⇒ $(A+B) = 90^\circ$
⇒ $30^\circ + B + B = 90^\circ$
⇒ $2B = 60^\circ$
⇒ $B = 30^\circ$
$\therefore A = 30^\circ + 30^\circ = 60^\circ$
Hence, the correct answer is 60° and 30°.
