The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the angles of triangle ABC given that they are in the ratio 1:2:3. We will then analyze the options provided to determine which are correct. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Angles**: Let the angles of triangle ABC be: - Angle A = 1x - Angle B = 2x - Angle C = 3x According to the angle sum property of triangles, we know that: \[ \text{Angle A} + \text{Angle B} + \text{Angle C} = 180^\circ \] Therefore, \[ 1x + 2x + 3x = 180^\circ \] Simplifying this gives: \[ 6x = 180^\circ \implies x = 30^\circ \] 2. **Finding the Angles**: Now substituting the value of x: - Angle A = 1x = 30° - Angle B = 2x = 60° - Angle C = 3x = 90° Thus, we have: \[ \text{Angle A} = 30^\circ, \quad \text{Angle B} = 60^\circ, \quad \text{Angle C} = 90^\circ \] This shows that triangle ABC is a right-angled triangle. 3. **Circumradius of the Triangle**: For a right-angled triangle, the circumradius (R) is given by: \[ R = \frac{C}{2} \] where C is the hypotenuse. Here, since C is the side opposite the right angle, we can say: \[ R = C \] Thus, option 1 is correct. 4. **Finding the Sides**: Using the sine rule: \[ \frac{a}{\sin A} = \frac{b}{\sin B} = \frac{c}{\sin C} = 2R \] Substituting the values: \[ \frac{a}{\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{b}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}} = \frac{c}{1} = 2R \] This gives us: \[ a = R, \quad b = \sqrt{3}R, \quad c = 2R \] Therefore, the ratio of the sides is: \[ a : b : c = 1 : \sqrt{3} : 2 \] Thus, option 2 is also correct. 5. **Calculating the Perimeter**: The perimeter (P) of triangle ABC is given by: \[ P = a + b + c = R + \sqrt{3}R + 2R = (1 + \sqrt{3} + 2)R = (3 + \sqrt{3})R \] Since R = C, we can express the perimeter as: \[ P = (3 + \sqrt{3})C \] Thus, option 3 is correct. 6. **Calculating the Area**: The area (A) of triangle ABC can be calculated using the formula: \[ A = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height} \] Here, we can take: \[ A = \frac{1}{2} \times a \times b = \frac{1}{2} \times R \times \sqrt{3}R = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}R^2 \] Substituting R = C/2 gives: \[ A = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \left(\frac{C}{2}\right)^2 = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \cdot \frac{C^2}{4} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{8}C^2 \] Thus, option 4 is incorrect as it states the area is \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{8}C^2\). ### Conclusion: The correct options are: - Option 1: Circumradius of triangle ABC is equal to C (Correct) - Option 2: a : b : c = 1 : \(\sqrt{3}\) : 2 (Correct) - Option 3: Perimeter of triangle ABC is equal to \(3 + \sqrt{3}\) (Correct) - Option 4: Area of triangle ABC is equal to \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{8}C^2\) (Incorrect)
