In a triangle ABC , with usual notations, if a=5, ~b =7, ~A = 3 4 , then total number of triangles possible are
Options
- A1
- B0
- C2
- D5
Correct answer
B. 0
Step-by-step solution
Using the Law of Sines with sides a = 5 , b = 7 , and A = 3 4 , we establish the relation: a A = b B This gives 5 3 4 = 7 B Solving for B : B = 7 3 4 5 = 21 20 Since 21 20 > 1 exceeds the valid range of sine values [-1, 1] , no such angle B exists. Thus, the number of possible triangles is 0 .
