The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the given equation involving the sides of triangle ABC, denoted as \( a \), \( b \), and \( c \). The equation provided is: \[ \log\left(1 + \frac{c}{a}\right) + \log a - \log b = \log 2 \] ### Step 1: Simplify the logarithmic equation Using the properties of logarithms, we can combine the logarithmic terms on the left side: \[ \log\left(1 + \frac{c}{a}\right) + \log a - \log b = \log\left(\frac{a(1 + \frac{c}{a})}{b}\right) \] This simplifies to: \[ \log\left(\frac{a + c}{b}\right) = \log 2 \] ### Step 2: Exponentiate both sides By exponentiating both sides of the equation, we eliminate the logarithm: \[ \frac{a + c}{b} = 2 \] ### Step 3: Rearranging the equation Multiplying both sides by \( b \): \[ a + c = 2b \] ### Step 4: Analyze the relationship The equation \( a + c = 2b \) indicates that the sum of the lengths of sides \( a \) and \( c \) is twice the length of side \( b \). This is a characteristic of an arithmetic progression (A.P.), where the middle term is the average of the two outer terms. ### Conclusion Thus, we conclude that the sides \( a, b, c \) are in Arithmetic Progression (A.P.). ### Final Answer The correct option is **i) A.P.** ---
