MCQ

Let $A B C$ and $A B C^{\prime}$ be two non-congruent triangles with sides $A B=4$, $A C=A C^{\prime}=2 \sqrt{2}$ and angle $B=30^{\circ}$. The absolute value of the difference between the areas of these triangles is

A
$2$
B
$9$
✓
$4$
D
$5$

✓

Answer

Correct option: C.

$4$

c
$\text { Using cosine rule } \cos B=\frac{a^2+c^2-b^2}{2 a c}=\frac{a^2+16-8}{2 \times a \times 4}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=\frac{a^2+8}{8 a}$

$\Rightarrow a^2-4 \sqrt{3} a+8=0$

$\Rightarrow a_1+a_2=4 \sqrt{3}, a_1 a_2=8$

$\Rightarrow\left|a_1-a_2\right|^2=\left(a_1+a_2\right)^2-4 a_1 a_2=48-32=16$

$\Rightarrow\left|a_1-a_2\right|=4$

$\therefore\left|\Delta_1-\Delta_2\right|=\frac{1}{2}\left|a_1-a_2\right| \cdot c \sin$ $B=\frac{1}{2} \times 4 \sin 30^{\circ} \times 4=4$
