The correct Answer is:
To solve the given problem, we will analyze each statement separately and determine their validity. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement I **Statement I:** There exists no triangle ABC for which \( \sin A + \sin B = \sin C \). 1. We know from the sine rule that in any triangle ABC, the following relationship holds: \[ \frac{A}{\sin A} = \frac{B}{\sin B} = \frac{C}{\sin C} = 2R \] where \( R \) is the circumradius of the triangle. 2. Rearranging the sine rule gives: \[ \sin A = \frac{A}{R}, \quad \sin B = \frac{B}{R}, \quad \sin C = \frac{C}{R} \] 3. Substitute these into the equation \( \sin A + \sin B = \sin C \): \[ \frac{A}{R} + \frac{B}{R} = \frac{C}{R} \] 4. Multiplying through by \( R \) (assuming \( R \neq 0 \)): \[ A + B = C \] 5. However, in any triangle, the sum of two sides \( A + B \) must be greater than the third side \( C \) (Triangle Inequality Theorem). Therefore, \( A + B = C \) cannot hold true. **Conclusion for Statement I:** This statement is correct; there exists no triangle ABC for which \( \sin A + \sin B = \sin C \). ### Step 2: Analyze Statement II **Statement II:** If the angles of a triangle are in the ratio 1:2:3, then its sides will be in the ratio \( 1:\sqrt{3}:2 \). 1. Let the angles of the triangle be \( X, 2X, 3X \). According to the angle sum property of triangles: \[ X + 2X + 3X = 180^\circ \] This simplifies to: \[ 6X = 180^\circ \implies X = 30^\circ \] 2. Therefore, the angles are: - \( X = 30^\circ \) - \( 2X = 60^\circ \) - \( 3X = 90^\circ \) 3. Now, we can find the sides using the sine rule: \[ \frac{a}{\sin A} = \frac{b}{\sin B} = \frac{c}{\sin C} \] where \( A = 30^\circ, B = 60^\circ, C = 90^\circ \). 4. Calculate the sine values: - \( \sin 30^\circ = \frac{1}{2} \) - \( \sin 60^\circ = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \) - \( \sin 90^\circ = 1 \) 5. The ratios of the sides will be: \[ a : b : c = \sin 30^\circ : \sin 60^\circ : \sin 90^\circ = \frac{1}{2} : \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} : 1 \] 6. To eliminate the fraction, multiply through by 2: \[ 1 : \sqrt{3} : 2 \] **Conclusion for Statement II:** This statement is also correct; if the angles of a triangle are in the ratio 1:2:3, then its sides will indeed be in the ratio \( 1:\sqrt{3}:2 \). ### Final Conclusion Both statements I and II are correct.
