Given two signals: x(t) = 4cos(2t-30°) and y(t) = 3sin(2t+60°) what is the amplitude (M) of the sum of these signals in cosine form x(t) + y(t) = Mcos(2t+q)? Answer: Amplitude M equals: A 7 B 5 Note that, since sin (0+π/2) = cos(0) D 4/3 3sin(2t+60) = 3 cos(2t-30) thus, 4 cos(2t-30) + 3 sin(2t+60) = 4cos(2t-30)+3 cos (2t-30) = 7 cos(2t-30) Hence, (a) M = 7 and (b) qp=-30°. E. None of these

![Given two signals:
\( x(t) = 4\cos(2t - 30^\circ) \) and \( y(t) = 3\sin(2t + 60^\circ) \)
What is the amplitude (M) of the sum of these signals in cosine form \( x(t) + y(t) = M\cos(2t + \varphi) \)?
**Answer: Amplitude M equals:**
- A: 7
- B: 5
- C: 1
- D: 4/3
- E: None of these
Note that, since \( \sin(\theta + \pi/2) = \cos(\theta) \),
\( 3\sin(2t + 60) = 3\cos(2t - 30) \)
Thus,
\[4\cos(2t - 30) + 3\sin(2t + 60) = 4\cos(2t - 30) + 3\cos(2t - 30) = 7\cos(2t - 30)\]
Hence, (a) \( M = 7 \) and (b) \( \varphi = -30^\circ \).](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fbfab9a7f-9ea4-456a-bb57-050ea1ff4d68%2F728c3431-0f35-4acb-8c96-3f06eb9fab9f%2F6pgiutd_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
