Trigonometric Equations Question 41

Question: If $ b=3,c=4 $ and $ B=\frac{\pi }{3} $ , then the number of triangle that can be constructed is

[Roorkee 1992]

Options:

A) Infinite

B) Two

C) One

D) Nil

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

  • Hence $ c\sin B=4\sin \frac{\pi }{3}=2\sqrt{3}>b(=3) $ Thus, we have $ b<c\sin B $ . Hence no triangle is possible i.e., the number of triangles that can be constructed is nil.
