In `Delta ABC, "cot"(A)/(2) + "cot" (B)/(2) + "cot" (C)/(2)` is equal to

A

`ge3sqrt3`

B

`ge9`

C

`ge6sqrt3`

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

In `DeltaABC,` we have
`tan""(A)/(2)tan""(B)/(2)+tan""(B)/(2)tan""(C)/(2)+tan""(C)/(2)tan""(A)/(2)=1`
`impliescot""(A)/(2)tan""(B)/(2)+cot""(C)/(2)=cot""(A)/(2)cot""(B)/(2)cot""(C)/(2)`
`Now, " "A.M.geG.M.`
`implies{(cot""(A)/(2)+cot""(B)/(2)+cot""(C)/(2))/(3)}ge{cot""(A)/(2)cot""(B)/(2)cot""(C)/(2)}^(1//3)`
`implies{(cot""(A)/(2)cot""(B)/(2)cot""(C)/(2))/(3)}ge{cot""(A)/(2)cot""(B)/(2)cot""(C)/(2)}^(1//3)`
`implies{cot""(A)/(2)cot""(B)/(2)cot""(C)/(2)}^(2//3)ge3`
`impliescot""(A)/(2)cot""(B)/(2)cot""(C)/(2)ge3sqrt3.`
