The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will use Napier's analogy to find the value of \( \tan \left( \frac{B - C}{2} \right) \). ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Identify Given Values**: - \( b = \sqrt{3} + 1 \) - \( c = \sqrt{3} - 1 \) - \( A = 60^\circ \) 2. **Use Napier's Analogy**: According to Napier's analogy: \[ \tan \left( \frac{B - C}{2} \right) = \frac{b - c}{b + c} \cdot \cot \left( \frac{A}{2} \right) \] 3. **Calculate \( b - c \)**: \[ b - c = (\sqrt{3} + 1) - (\sqrt{3} - 1) = 1 + 1 = 2 \] 4. **Calculate \( b + c \)**: \[ b + c = (\sqrt{3} + 1) + (\sqrt{3} - 1) = 2\sqrt{3} \] 5. **Calculate \( \cot \left( \frac{A}{2} \right) \)**: Since \( A = 60^\circ \): \[ \frac{A}{2} = 30^\circ \quad \text{and} \quad \cot(30^\circ) = \sqrt{3} \] 6. **Substitute Values into Napier's Formula**: \[ \tan \left( \frac{B - C}{2} \right) = \frac{2}{2\sqrt{3}} \cdot \sqrt{3} \] 7. **Simplify the Expression**: \[ \tan \left( \frac{B - C}{2} \right) = \frac{2\sqrt{3}}{2\sqrt{3}} = 1 \] ### Final Answer: Thus, the value of \( \tan \left( \frac{B - C}{2} \right) \) is \( 1 \). ---
