The value of y from the given trig expression is pi/3 rad
Trigonometry identity
These identities are expressed in terms of sine, cosine and tangent
Given the expression
[tex]sin(x+y)=\frac{1}{2}sinx+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} cosx[/tex]
Expand sin(x+y)
sin(x+y) = sinxcosy + cosxsiny
Compare both equations
cosy = 1/2
y = arccos(1/2)
y = 60 degrees
y = pi/3 rad
Hence the value of y from the given trig expression is pi/3 rad
