In aΔABC,if3∠A=4∠B=6∠C then A:B:C=?
(a) 3:4:6 (b) 4:3:2 (c) 2:3:4 (d) 6:4:3
ANSWER:
LCM of 3, 4 and 6 = 12
3 ∠A=4∠B=6∠C
(Given)
Dividing throughout by 12, we get
3 ∠A/12=4∠/B12=6∠C/12⇒∠A/4=∠B/3=∠C/2
Let ∠A/4=∠B/3=∠C/2=k, where k is some constant
Then, ∠A=4k,∠B=3k,∠C=2k
∴ ∠A:∠B:∠C = 4 k : 3 k : 2 k = 4 : 3 : 2
Hence, the correct answer is option (b).
