The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we start with the given equations: 1. **Given Equations:** \[ \alpha + \beta = \frac{\pi}{2} \quad \text{(1)} \] \[ \beta + \gamma = \alpha \quad \text{(2)} \] 2. **From Equation (1):** We can express \(\beta\) in terms of \(\alpha\): \[ \beta = \frac{\pi}{2} - \alpha \quad \text{(3)} \] 3. **Substituting Equation (3) into Equation (2):** Substitute \(\beta\) from (3) into (2): \[ \left(\frac{\pi}{2} - \alpha\right) + \gamma = \alpha \] Rearranging gives: \[ \gamma = \alpha - \left(\frac{\pi}{2} - \alpha\right) \] Simplifying this: \[ \gamma = \alpha - \frac{\pi}{2} + \alpha = 2\alpha - \frac{\pi}{2} \quad \text{(4)} \] 4. **Using the Tangent Function:** Now, we will use the tangent function. From (1), we have: \[ \tan(\alpha + \beta) = \tan\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right) \quad \text{(undefined)} \] However, we can also use the identity for tangent: \[ \tan(\beta + \gamma) = \tan(\alpha) \quad \text{(5)} \] Using the tangent addition formula: \[ \tan(\beta + \gamma) = \frac{\tan\beta + \tan\gamma}{1 - \tan\beta \tan\gamma} \] Setting this equal to \(\tan(\alpha)\) gives: \[ \frac{\tan\beta + \tan\gamma}{1 - \tan\beta \tan\gamma} = \tan\alpha \quad \text{(6)} \] 5. **Substituting \(\beta\) from (3) into (6):** Substitute \(\beta = \frac{\pi}{2} - \alpha\): \[ \tan\left(\frac{\pi}{2} - \alpha\right) = \cot\alpha \] Thus, we have: \[ \tan\beta = \cot\alpha \quad \text{(7)} \] 6. **Using Equation (4) for \(\gamma\):** Substitute \(\gamma\) from (4): \[ \tan\gamma = \tan(2\alpha - \frac{\pi}{2}) = -\cot(2\alpha) \quad \text{(8)} \] 7. **Substituting (7) and (8) into (6):** Now substituting (7) and (8) into (6): \[ \frac{\cot\alpha - \cot(2\alpha)}{1 - \cot\alpha \cdot (-\cot(2\alpha))} = \tan\alpha \] 8. **Final Simplification:** After simplifying, we will find that: \[ \tan\beta + 2\tan\gamma = \tan\alpha \] Hence, we conclude that: \[ \tan\beta + 2\tan\gamma = \tan\alpha \quad \text{(Correct Option)} \] ### Final Answer: The correct relation is: \[ \tan\beta + 2\tan\gamma = \tan\alpha \]

To solve the problem step by step, we start with the given equations: 1. **Given Equations:** \[ \alpha + \beta = \frac{\pi}{2} \quad \text{(1)} \] \[ \beta + \gamma = \alpha \quad \text{(2)} ...
