The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will use the cosine rule in triangle ABC where angle B is given as 60 degrees. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Cosine Rule**: The cosine rule states that for any triangle ABC, the following relationship holds: \[ \cos B = \frac{A^2 + C^2 - B^2}{2AC} \] 2. **Substitute the Value of Angle B**: Since angle B is given as 60 degrees, we can substitute this value into the cosine rule: \[ \cos 60^\circ = \frac{A^2 + C^2 - B^2}{2AC} \] 3. **Calculate \(\cos 60^\circ\)**: We know that: \[ \cos 60^\circ = \frac{1}{2} \] Therefore, we can rewrite the equation as: \[ \frac{1}{2} = \frac{A^2 + C^2 - B^2}{2AC} \] 4. **Cross-Multiply to Eliminate the Fraction**: Cross-multiplying gives us: \[ 1 \cdot 2AC = A^2 + C^2 - B^2 \] Simplifying this, we have: \[ 2AC = A^2 + C^2 - B^2 \] 5. **Rearranging the Equation**: Rearranging the equation to isolate \(B^2\) gives: \[ B^2 = A^2 + C^2 - 2AC \] 6. **Recognizing the Perfect Square**: The expression \(A^2 + C^2 - 2AC\) can be recognized as a perfect square: \[ B^2 = (C - A)^2 \] 7. **Final Relation**: Thus, we conclude that: \[ B = |C - A| \] ### Summary: The relationship derived from the triangle ABC with angle B equal to 60 degrees is: \[ B = |C - A| \]
