The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the given quadratic equation and the properties of triangle ABC. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Identify the Quadratic Equation**: The given equation is \( pq(x^2 + 1) = r^2 x \). Rearranging this, we get: \[ pq x^2 - r^2 x + pq = 0 \] 2. **Roots of the Quadratic**: The roots of this quadratic equation are given as \( \tan A \) and \( \tan B \). According to Vieta's formulas, we know: - The sum of the roots \( \tan A + \tan B = \frac{r^2}{pq} \) - The product of the roots \( \tan A \tan B = \frac{pq}{pq} = 1 \) 3. **Using the Product of Roots**: From the product of the roots, we have: \[ \tan A \tan B = 1 \] This implies that: \[ \tan A = \cot B \quad \text{or} \quad \tan A = \tan(90^\circ - B) \] Therefore, \( A + B = 90^\circ \). 4. **Finding Angle C**: Since the angles in a triangle sum up to \( 180^\circ \), we can find angle C: \[ C = 180^\circ - (A + B) = 180^\circ - 90^\circ = 90^\circ \] 5. **Conclusion**: Since angle C is \( 90^\circ \), triangle ABC is a right-angled triangle. ### Final Answer: Triangle ABC is a right-angled triangle.
