The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write down the given information We are given: - \( b = (\sqrt{3} - 1)a \) - \( \angle C = 30^\circ \) ### Step 2: Use the angle sum property of a triangle In triangle \( ABC \), the sum of the angles is \( 180^\circ \): \[ \angle A + \angle B + \angle C = 180^\circ \] Substituting the known value of \( \angle C \): \[ \angle A + \angle B + 30^\circ = 180^\circ \] This simplifies to: \[ \angle A + \angle B = 150^\circ \] ### Step 3: Apply the Law of Sines According to the Law of Sines: \[ \frac{a}{\sin A} = \frac{b}{\sin B} = \frac{c}{\sin C} \] From this, we can express \( \frac{b}{a} \): \[ \frac{b}{a} = \frac{\sin B}{\sin A} \] Substituting \( b = (\sqrt{3} - 1)a \): \[ \frac{\sqrt{3} - 1}{1} = \frac{\sin B}{\sin A} \] ### Step 4: Rationalize the expression We have: \[ \frac{\sin B}{\sin A} = \sqrt{3} - 1 \] To rationalize, we multiply by the conjugate: \[ \frac{\sin B}{\sin A} = \frac{(\sqrt{3} - 1)(\sqrt{3} + 1)}{\sqrt{3} + 1} = \frac{2}{\sqrt{3} + 1} \] ### Step 5: Simplify further Now, we can express this as: \[ \frac{\sin B}{\sin A} = \frac{2}{\sqrt{3} + 1} \] Dividing both sides by \( 2 \): \[ \frac{\sin B}{\sin A} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3} + 1}{2} \] ### Step 6: Identify angles using sine values We know: \[ \frac{\sin B}{\sin A} = \frac{\sin 45^\circ}{\sin 105^\circ} \] This implies: \[ B = 45^\circ \quad \text{and} \quad A = 105^\circ \] ### Step 7: Calculate \( A - B \) Now, we can find \( A - B \): \[ A - B = 105^\circ - 45^\circ = 60^\circ \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of \( A - B \) is: \[ \boxed{60^\circ} \] ---
