The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we start with the equation given in the triangle \( \Delta ABC \): \[ \cos A + \sin A - \frac{2}{\cos B + \sin B} = 0 \] ### Step 1: Rearranging the Equation First, we can rearrange the equation to isolate the terms involving angles A and B: \[ \cos A + \sin A = \frac{2}{\cos B + \sin B} \] ### Step 2: Cross Multiplying Next, we cross-multiply to eliminate the fraction: \[ (\cos A + \sin A)(\cos B + \sin B) = 2 \] ### Step 3: Expanding the Left Side Now, we expand the left side of the equation: \[ \cos A \cos B + \cos A \sin B + \sin A \cos B + \sin A \sin B = 2 \] ### Step 4: Recognizing Trigonometric Identities We can recognize that the left-hand side can be rewritten using trigonometric identities: \[ \cos A \cos B + \sin A \sin B = \cos(A - B) \] \[ \cos A \sin B + \sin A \cos B = \sin(A + B) \] Thus, we have: \[ \cos(A - B) + \sin(A + B) = 2 \] ### Step 5: Analyzing the Maximum Values The maximum value of \( \cos \theta \) is 1 and the maximum value of \( \sin \theta \) is also 1. Therefore, for the equation to hold true, both terms must equal their maximum values: \[ \cos(A - B) = 1 \quad \text{and} \quad \sin(A + B) = 1 \] ### Step 6: Solving for Angles From \( \cos(A - B) = 1 \), we conclude: \[ A - B = 0 \implies A = B \] From \( \sin(A + B) = 1 \), we have: \[ A + B = \frac{\pi}{2} \] ### Step 7: Finding Angle C Since \( A + B + C = \pi \) in a triangle, we can find angle C: \[ C = \pi - (A + B) = \pi - \frac{\pi}{2} = \frac{\pi}{2} \] ### Step 8: Applying the Sine Rule Now, we apply the sine rule which states: \[ \frac{a}{\sin A} = \frac{b}{\sin B} = \frac{c}{\sin C} = k \] Since \( A = B \) and \( C = \frac{\pi}{2} \): \[ \sin A = \sin B = \sin\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}, \quad \sin C = \sin\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right) = 1 \] ### Step 9: Expressing Sides in Terms of k Now we can express the sides in terms of \( k \): \[ a = k \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}, \quad b = k \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}, \quad c = k \] ### Step 10: Finding \(\frac{a + b}{c}\) Finally, we need to find \( \frac{a + b}{c} \): \[ \frac{a + b}{c} = \frac{k \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} + k \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}{k} = \frac{2k \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}{k} = \frac{2}{\sqrt{2}} = \sqrt{2} \] ### Conclusion Thus, the value of \( \frac{a + b}{c} \) is: \[ \frac{a + b}{c} = \sqrt{2} \]
