Consider an obtuse angled triangleABCin which the difference between the largest and the smallest angle isπ2and whose sides are in arithmetic progression. Suppose that the vertices of this triangle lie on a circle of radius1.
(There are two questions based onPARAGRAPH " 1 ", the question given below is one of them)
Letαbe the area of the triangleABC. Then the value of(64α)2is

Question diagram: Consider an obtuse angled triangle A B C in which the differ
Answer:
1008.00
Solution:

Let angle A be obtuse angle and let sides be a-d, a, a+d

So, plotting the diagram we get,

Now let sides be, ad,a,a+d

Also given angle AC=π2

And circum radius R=1

Now by sine rule we get,

a+dsinA=asinB=adsinC=2

A=π2+C

sinA=sinπ2+C

sinA=cosC

a+d2=1sin2C

a+d22=1-a-d22

2a2+d24=1

a2+d2=2    ...(1)

Now using cosine rule we get,

cosB=(ad)2+(a+d)2a22a2d2

1-sin2B=2a2+d2-a22a2-d2

1-a24=4-a22a2-d2  a2+d2=2

a2-d22=4-a2    ...(2)

From (1) & (2)
a2=74,d2=14
Area of triangle
Δ=aa2-d24

α=72×64×4

Now 64α2=64×64×74×3616×16=4×252=1008
