In [triangle](https://artofproblemsolving.com/wiki/index.php/Triangle) $ABC$, $3 \sin A + 4 \cos B = 6$ and $4 \sin B + 3 \cos A = 1$. Then $\angle C$ in degrees is 
$\mathrm{(A) \ }30 \qquad \mathrm{(B) \ }60 \qquad \mathrm{(C) \ }90 \qquad \mathrm{(D) \ }120 \qquad \mathrm{(E) \ }150$
Square the given equations and add (simplifying with the Pythagorean identity $\sin^2 x + \cos^2 x = 1$):
\begin{align*} 9\sin^2 A + 16\cos^2 B + 24 \sin A \cos B & = 36 \\ + 9\cos^2 A + 16\sin^2 B + 24 \sin B \cos A & = 1 \\ \Longrightarrow 25 + 24(\sin A \cos B + \sin B \cos A ) & = 37 \end{align*}
Thus $\frac 12 = \sin A \cos B + \sin B \cos A$. This is the sine addition identity, so $\frac 12 = \sin (A + B) = \sin (180 - C) = \sin C$. Thus either $C = 30^{\circ}, 150^{\circ}$. 
If $C = 150$, then $A + B = 30 \Longrightarrow A,B < 30$, and $\sin A < \frac 12, \cos A < 1$. The first equation implies $6 = 3 \sin A + 4\cos B < 3\left(\frac 12\right) + 4(1) = 5.5 < 6$, which is a contradiction; thus $C = 30 \Longrightarrow \mathrm{(A)}$.
