Let ABC be a triangle such that cos A=`2/3` and cosB=`3/4`,then

A.

ABC is an acute-angled triangle

B.

tan A + tan B + tan C `>=3sqrt3`

C.

Orthocentre of the triangle lies outside its circumcirles

D.

`cos^2A +cos^2B +cos^2C<=1`

Solution

Best answer

cos C = – cos (A + B)

= sin a sin B – cos A cos B

`=sqrt5/3xxsqrt7/4-2/3xx3/4`

=`(sqrt5-6)/12<0`

Thus, `/_C` is an obtuse angle. Now, in any obtuse-angled triangle, the orthocentre lies outside the circumcircle of the triangle.
