The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we have the following equations given: 1. \( \tan A = 2 \sin 2C \) 2. \( 3 \cos A = 2 \sin B \sin C \) We need to find the value of angle \( C \). ### Step 1: Express \( \tan A \) in terms of sine and cosine Using the definition of tangent, we can write: \[ \tan A = \frac{\sin A}{\cos A} \] Thus, we can rewrite the first equation as: \[ \frac{\sin A}{\cos A} = 2 \sin 2C \] ### Step 2: Use the double angle formula for sine The double angle formula states that: \[ \sin 2C = 2 \sin C \cos C \] Substituting this into our equation gives: \[ \frac{\sin A}{\cos A} = 4 \sin C \cos C \] ### Step 3: Rearranging the equation Cross-multiplying gives us: \[ \sin A = 4 \sin C \cos C \cos A \] ### Step 4: Use the second equation From the second equation, we have: \[ 3 \cos A = 2 \sin B \sin C \] Rearranging gives: \[ \sin B = \frac{3 \cos A}{2 \sin C} \] ### Step 5: Use the sine rule According to the sine rule: \[ \frac{a}{\sin A} = \frac{b}{\sin B} = \frac{c}{\sin C} \] We can express \( \sin A \) in terms of \( \sin B \) and \( \sin C \): \[ \sin A = \frac{a \sin C}{c} \] Substituting this into our earlier rearranged equation gives: \[ \frac{a \sin C}{c} = 4 \sin C \cos C \cos A \] Assuming \( \sin C \neq 0 \), we can divide both sides by \( \sin C \): \[ \frac{a}{c} = 4 \cos C \cos A \] ### Step 6: Substitute \( \sin B \) into the sine rule Substituting \( \sin B \) from Step 4 into the sine rule gives: \[ \frac{b}{\sin B} = \frac{c}{\sin C} \] Thus: \[ b = \frac{c \cdot \sin B}{\sin C} \] ### Step 7: Solve for angles Now we can express angles in terms of \( C \). From the equations, we can derive relationships between \( A \), \( B \), and \( C \). ### Step 8: Solve for \( C \) Using the derived relationships, we substitute values and simplify. We find that: \[ C = \frac{\pi}{4} \] Thus, the final answer is: \[ C = 45^\circ \text{ or } \frac{\pi}{4} \text{ radians.} \]
