If area of DeltaABC (Delta) and angle C ...

If area of `DeltaABC (Delta)` and angle C are given and if c opposite to given angle is minimum, then

A

`a=sqrt((2Delta)/(sin C))`

B

`b=sqrt((2Delta)/(sin C))`

C

`a=(4Delta)/(sin C)`

D

`b=(4Delta)/(sin^(2)C)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B
`c^(2)=a^(2)+b^(2)-2ab cos C`
`=(a-b)^(2)+2ab (1-cos C)`
`=(a-b)^(2)+(4 Delta)/(sin C)(1-cos C)`
Hence, for c to minimum, a = b
Also `Delta =(1)/(2)ab sin C rArr a^(2)=(2Delta)/(sin C)=b^(2)`

When any two sides and one of the opposite acute are given, under certain additional condition two triangle are possible. The case when two triangle are possible is called the ambiguous case. In fact when any two sides and the angle opposite to one of them are given either no triangle is possible or only one triangle is possible or two triangle are possible. In the ambiguous case, let a, b, and angleA are given and c_1,c_2 are two values of the third side c The difference between two values of c is

Prove that the area of a right-angled triangle of a given hypotenuse is maximum when the triangle is isosceles.

ABC is a trangle whose sides are a units, b units and c units respectively and their corresponding opposite angles are A,B and C. If in the triangle ABC, the side c and angle C remain unchanged while the other sides and angles are changed slightly then the value of (da)/(cosA) + (db)/(cosB) is -

Two medians drawn from the acute angles of a right angled triangle intersect at an angle pi/6. If the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle is 3 units, then the area of the triangle (in sq. units) is (a) sqrt3 (b) 3 (c) sqrt2 (d) 9
