Answer:

Let the coordinates of point C which divides the line segment AB in the ratio 3:5 is C (x, y).

C identical to open parentheses fraction numerator 5 cross times 5 plus 8 cross times 3 over denominator 3 plus 5 end fraction comma fraction numerator 7 cross times 5 plus 4 cross times 3 over denominator 3 plus 5 end fraction close parentheses rightwards double arrow C identical to open parentheses 49 over 8 comma 47 over 8 close parentheses

Sir/Mam
 
In theorem 1 of trignometric equations in NCERT textbook class 11 where
 
sin x = sin y
 
I cannot understand after this specific line of the theorem.X equals space left parenthesis 2 n plus 1 right parenthesis straight pi space minus space straight y space space space space space space or space space space space straight X equals space 2 nπ plus space straight y space space space where space straight n element of straight Z
 
Can you please explain how we arrive at the solution  X space equals space n straight pi space plus left parenthesis negative 1 right parenthesis to the power of straight n space end exponent straight y space where space straight n element of straight Z
by completely explaining the steps in between ?
