The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of angle \( C \) in triangle \( ABC \) given that angle \( A \) is greater than angle \( B \) and that the angles satisfy the equation \( 3\sin x - 4\sin^3 x - k = 0 \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Equation**: The equation given is \( 3\sin x - 4\sin^3 x - k = 0 \). This can be rearranged to: \[ 3\sin x - 4\sin^3 x = k \] 2. **Using the Identity**: We can use the identity for \( \sin 3x \): \[ \sin 3x = 3\sin x - 4\sin^3 x \] Therefore, we can rewrite the equation as: \[ \sin 3x = k \] 3. **Finding the Angles**: Since \( k \) is a value between 0 and 1 (as \( \sin \) values range between -1 and 1), we can express: \[ 3x = \arcsin(k) \] This implies that: \[ x = \frac{1}{3} \arcsin(k) \] 4. **Relating Angles A and B**: Since we have \( A \) and \( B \) as angles in triangle \( ABC \) with \( A > B \), we can express: \[ \sin 3A = k \quad \text{and} \quad \sin 3B = k \] This leads to: \[ 3A = \arcsin(k) \quad \text{and} \quad 3B = \arcsin(k) \] Since \( A > B \), we can conclude: \[ 3A > 3B \] 5. **Using the Sine Difference**: From the sine difference identity, we have: \[ \sin 3A - \sin 3B = 0 \] This implies: \[ 3A - 3B = n\pi \quad \text{for some integer } n \] 6. **Finding C**: In a triangle, the sum of the angles is \( 180^\circ \): \[ A + B + C = 180^\circ \] Since \( A + B = 180^\circ - C \), we can substitute: \[ C = 180^\circ - (A + B) \] 7. **Conclusion**: Given that \( A + B = 90^\circ \) (as derived from \( 3A + 3B = 90^\circ \)), we find: \[ C = 180^\circ - 90^\circ = 90^\circ \] Thus, the value of angle \( C \) is \( 90^\circ \).
