Number of triangles ABC if tan A = x, tan B = x + 1,and tan C = 1- x is_____.
△ABC,tan A+tan B+tan C=tan A tan B tan C⇒ x+x+1+1−x=x(1+x)(1−x)or 2+x=x−x3or x3=−2⇒x=−21/3⇒tanA=x<0 ⇒A is obtuse ⇒tanB=x+1=1−21/3<0Hence, A and B are obtuse, which is not possible in a triangle.Hence, no such triangle can exist.
