prove $a,b,c$ in A.P if $tandfrac{A}{2}=dfrac{5}{6}$ and $tandfrac{C}{2}=dfrac{2}{5}$












1















In $Delta ABC$, if $tandfrac{A}{2}=dfrac{5}{6}$ and $tandfrac{C}{2}=dfrac{2}{5}$, then prove that the sides $a,b,c$ are in A.P.




My Attempt
$$
sin A=frac{2.5}{6}.frac{36}{61}=frac{60}{61}\
sin C=frac{2.2}{5}.frac{25}{29}=frac{20}{29}\
$$

it is solved in my reference some fomula involving $2s=a+b+c$, can I prove it using the basic known properties of triangles ?

          $$dfrac1{tandfrac B2}=cot B/2=tan(A/2+C/2)=?$$



          Use



          $$sin2x=dfrac{2tan x}{1+tan^2x}=?$$ for $2x=A,B,C$

          It is $$tan(alpha/2)=frac{r}{s-a}$$ and $$tan(gamma/2)=frac{r}{s-c}$$ where $$s=frac{a+b+c}{2}$$ so we get $$frac{5}{6}(s-a)=frac{2}{5}(s-c)$$
          Can you finish now?

            Hint:



            Like In $Delta ABC$, find $cotdfrac{B}{2}.cotdfrac{C}{2}$ if $b+c=3a$,



            $$2b=a+c$$ will hold true if $tandfrac A2tandfrac B2=dfrac13$

              You can first deduce
              $$
              tanfrac{B}{2}=tanleft(frac{pi}{2}-frac{A+C}{2}right)=cotfrac{A+C}{2}=
              frac{1-tanfrac{A}{2}tanfrac{C}{2}}{tanfrac{A}{2}+tanfrac{C}{2}}=frac{2/3}{37/30}
              =frac{20}{37}
              $$

              Therefore
              $$
              sin A=frac{2(5/6)}{1+25/36}=frac{60}{61}
              $$

              Similarly,
              $$
              sin B=frac{1480}{1769}qquad sin C=frac{20}{29}
              $$

              By the sine law,
              $$
              frac{a+c}{2}=frac{b}{2sin B}(sin A+sin C)=
              bfrac{1769}{2960}left(frac{60}{61}+frac{20}{29}right)=b
              $$
