Q.
If α, β, γ are the angles of a triangle and the system of equationscos(α−β)x+cos(β−γ)y+cos(γ−α)z=0cos(α+β)x+cos(β+γ)y+cos(γ+α)z=0sin(α+β)x+sin(β+γ)y+sin(γ+α)z=0has non-trivial solutions, then triangle is necessarily

Detailed Solution
Let Δ=cos(α−β)cos(β−γ)cos(γ−α)cos(α+β)cos(β+γ)cos(γ+α)sin(α+β)sin(β+γ)sin(γ+α)It is clear that either α=β or β=γ or γ=α s sufficient to make ∆=0. It is not necessary that triangle is equilateral.Also, isosceles triangle can be obtuse one.
