If the angles A , B and C of a triangle are in an Arithmetic Progression and if a , b and c denote the lengths of the sides opposite to A, B and C respectively, then the value of the expression a c 2 C + c a 2 ~A is
Options
- A1 2
- B3 2
- C1
- D3
Correct answer
D. 3
Step-by-step solution
A, B, C are in A.P. array ll & A+C=2 B & Also, A+B+C=180^ & B=60^ & B y sine rule, & A a = B b = C c =k & A=a k, B=b k, C=c k & a c 2 C+ c a 2 A & = a c (2 C C)+ c a (2 A A) & = a c (2 ck C)+ c a (2 a k A) & =2 k a C+2 k c A & =2 k(a C+c A) array array ll =2 ~kb & [ b= a C + c A ] =2 B & =2 3 2 & [ B =60^ ] = 3 & array
