उत्तर
In ∆ABC by sine rule, we have
`a/(sin A) = b/(sin B)` = k
∴ a = k sin A and b = k sin B
Now, a cos A = b cos B ...[Given]
∴ k sin A cos A = k sin B cos B
∴ sin A cos A = sin B cos B
∴ 2 sin A cos A = 2 sin B cos B
∴ sin 2A = sin 2B
∴ sin 2A − sin 2B = 0
∴ 2 cos (A + B) sin (A − B) = 0
∴ 2 cos (π − C) sin (A − B) = 0 ...[∵ A + B + C = π]
∴ −2 cos C sin (A − B) = 0
∴ cos C = 0 or sin(A − B) = 0
∴ C = `pi/2` or A − B = 0
∴ C = `pi/2` or A = B
∴ C = `pi/2` implies that ∆ABC is a right-angled triangle and A = B implies that ∆ABC is an isosceles triangle.
∴ The triangle is either a right-angled triangle or an isosceles triangle.
