METHOD 1
The value of cosine varies between –1 and +1. Therefore:
t = 0 ⇒ a + b = 14.3
t = 6 ⇒ a – b = 10.3
⇒ 2a = 24.6 ⇒ a = 12.3 (A1) (C1)
⇒ 2b = 4.0 ⇒ b = 2 (A1) (C1)
2π(12)
Period = 12 hours ⇒ = 2π (M1)

AĈB > 90° ⇒ AĈB = 180° – 64.3° = 115.7°
AĈB = 116 (3 sf) (A1) (C2)
(b) In Triangle 1, AĈB = 64.3°
⇒ BÂC = 180° – (64.3° + 50°)
