Trigonometric Equations Question 272

Question: In a $ \Delta ABC, $ $ A:B:C $ . Then $

[a+b+c\sqrt{2}] $ is equal to [DCE 2001]

Options:

A) 2b

B) 2c

C) 3b

D) 3a

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

  • $ \because $ $ A:B:C=3:5:4 $
    Þ $ A+B+C=12x=180^{o}\Rightarrow x=15^{o} $
    $ \therefore $ $ A=45^{o},,B=75^{o},,C=60^{o} $ $ \frac{a}{\sin 45^{o}}=\frac{b}{\sin 75^{o}}=\frac{c}{\sin 60^{o}}=K $ (say)
    $ \therefore ,a=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}K,b=\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{2\sqrt{2}}K,c=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}K $
    $ \therefore a+b+c\sqrt{2}=3b. $
