The correct Answer is:
To determine the type of triangle \( \Delta ABC \) given the conditions \( \sin A + \sin B + \sin C = 1 + \sqrt{2} \) and \( \cos A + \cos B + \cos C = \sqrt{2} \), we can analyze the given equations step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the given conditions We have two equations: 1. \( \sin A + \sin B + \sin C = 1 + \sqrt{2} \) 2. \( \cos A + \cos B + \cos C = \sqrt{2} \) ### Step 2: Consider the angles of the triangle Since \( A + B + C = 180^\circ \), we can use the properties of sine and cosine for specific angles to check for possible triangle types. ### Step 3: Check if the triangle is equilateral If the triangle is equilateral, then \( A = B = C = 60^\circ \). - Calculate \( \sin A + \sin B + \sin C \): \[ \sin 60^\circ + \sin 60^\circ + \sin 60^\circ = 3 \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} = \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2} \approx 2.598 \] - This does not equal \( 1 + \sqrt{2} \) (approximately 2.414), so it is not equilateral. ### Step 4: Check if the triangle is isosceles Assume \( A = B \) and \( C \) is different. Let’s try \( A = B = 30^\circ \) and \( C = 120^\circ \). - Calculate \( \sin A + \sin B + \sin C \): \[ \sin 30^\circ + \sin 30^\circ + \sin 120^\circ = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} = 1 + \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \approx 1.866 \] - This does not equal \( 1 + \sqrt{2} \), so it is not isosceles. ### Step 5: Check if the triangle is right-angled Assume \( A = 90^\circ \), \( B = 30^\circ \), and \( C = 60^\circ \). - Calculate \( \sin A + \sin B + \sin C \): \[ \sin 90^\circ + \sin 30^\circ + \sin 60^\circ = 1 + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} = 1 + 1 = 2 \] - This does not equal \( 1 + \sqrt{2} \), so it is not a right triangle. ### Step 6: Check if the triangle is right-angled isosceles Assume \( A = 90^\circ \), \( B = 45^\circ \), and \( C = 45^\circ \). - Calculate \( \sin A + \sin B + \sin C \): \[ \sin 90^\circ + \sin 45^\circ + \sin 45^\circ = 1 + \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} + \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} = 1 + \sqrt{2} \] - This matches the first condition. - Now check \( \cos A + \cos B + \cos C \): \[ \cos 90^\circ + \cos 45^\circ + \cos 45^\circ = 0 + \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} + \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} = \sqrt{2} \] - This matches the second condition. ### Conclusion Since both conditions are satisfied with the angles \( A = 90^\circ \), \( B = 45^\circ \), and \( C = 45^\circ \), we conclude that the triangle is a **right-angled isosceles triangle**.
