Solution

The correct option is B $b^{2} = a^{2} + c^{2} - a c$
A, B, C are in A. P. then angle B = $60^{o},$
$c o s B = \frac{a^{2} + c^{2} - b^{2}}{2 a c}, {\begin{matrix} s i n c e A + B + C = 180^{o} a n d A + C = 2 B \Rightarrow B = 60^{o} \end{matrix}} \Rightarrow \frac{1}{2} = \frac{a^{2} + c^{2} - b^{2}}{2 a c} = a c \Rightarrow b^{2} = a^{2} + c^{2} - a c .$
