If the angles A, B and C of a triangle are in an arithmetic progression and if a, b and c denote the lengths of the sides opposite to A, B and C respectively, then the value of the expression is
  1. (A)
  2. (B)
  3. (C)1
  4. (D)✓ Correct

Answer: (D)

Solution

Since A, B, C are in AP, we have . Also, , so , giving .

Using the sine rule: , so .

The expression becomes:



Since :
