    If one side of a triangle is double the other and the angles opposite to these sides differ by \[{{60}^{o}},\]then the triangle is

    A)  obtuse angled    

    B)  acute angled

    C)  isosceles         

    D)  right angled

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Given,  \[A-B={{60}^{o}}\] Day gream                 By sine rule,                                 \[\frac{2a}{\sin \,A}=\frac{a}{\sin \,B}\]                 \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\sin A-2\sin B=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\sin ({{60}^{o}}+B)-2\sin B=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\cos \,B+\frac{1}{2}\sin B-2\sin B=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\cos B-\frac{3}{2}\sin B=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\sqrt{3}\left( \frac{1}{2}\cos B-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\,\sin B \right)=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\sqrt{3}\left( \frac{1}{2}\,\cos B-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\,\sin B \right)=0\]                 \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\sqrt{3}[\cos \,({{60}^{o}}+B)]=0\]                 \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{60}^{o}}+B={{90}^{o}}\]                 \[\Rightarrow \]               \[B={{30}^{o}}\]                 \[\Rightarrow \]               \[A={{90}^{o}}\]                 Hence, it is right angled triangle,
