The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to establish the relationship between the sides \(a\), \(b\), \(c\), and the angle \(A\) given that \(bc = \lambda^2\). We will use the cosine rule and some trigonometric identities to derive the required relation. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Start with the Cosine Rule**: The cosine rule states that: \[ \cos A = \frac{b^2 + c^2 - a^2}{2bc} \] Given \(bc = \lambda^2\), we can substitute this into the equation. 2. **Substituting \(bc\)**: Substitute \(bc\) into the cosine rule: \[ \cos A = \frac{b^2 + c^2 - a^2}{2\lambda^2} \] 3. **Use the Half-Angle Formula**: The half-angle formula for cosine can be expressed as: \[ \cos A = 1 - 2\sin^2\left(\frac{A}{2}\right) \] Setting the two expressions for \(\cos A\) equal gives: \[ 1 - 2\sin^2\left(\frac{A}{2}\right) = \frac{b^2 + c^2 - a^2}{2\lambda^2} \] 4. **Rearranging the Equation**: Rearranging the equation gives: \[ 2\lambda^2 - 2\lambda^2 \cdot 2\sin^2\left(\frac{A}{2}\right) = b^2 + c^2 - a^2 \] This simplifies to: \[ 2\lambda^2 - b^2 - c^2 + a^2 = 4\lambda^2 \sin^2\left(\frac{A}{2}\right) \] 5. **Expressing in Terms of \(A\)**: We can express the relationship in terms of \(A\): \[ a^2 - (b^2 + c^2 - 2\lambda^2) = 4\lambda^2 \sin^2\left(\frac{A}{2}\right) \] 6. **Final Relation**: The final relation we derive is: \[ a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2\lambda^2 + 4\lambda^2 \sin^2\left(\frac{A}{2}\right) \] ### Conclusion: The relationship between \(a\), \(\lambda\), and \(A\) is established through the cosine rule and the half-angle formula. The derived equation shows how the sides and angle are interconnected given the condition \(bc = \lambda^2\).
