If 2s = a + b + c, then the value of s(s - c) + (s - a) (s - b) is

  • ab

  • abc

  • 0

  • 0


A.

ab

2s = a + b + c
therefore space space straight s left parenthesis straight s minus straight c right parenthesis space equals space open parentheses fraction numerator straight a plus straight b plus straight c over denominator 2 end fraction close parentheses space open parentheses fraction numerator straight a plus straight b plus straight c over denominator 2 end fraction minus straight c close parentheses
space space space space space space equals space fraction numerator left parenthesis straight a plus straight b plus straight c right parenthesis space left parenthesis straight a plus straight b minus straight c right parenthesis over denominator 4 end fraction
Again, (s - a) (s - b)
      equals space 1 fourth left parenthesis 2 straight s minus 2 straight a right parenthesis thin space left parenthesis 2 straight s minus 2 straight b right parenthesis
equals space 1 fourth left parenthesis straight a plus straight b plus straight c minus 2 straight a right parenthesis thin space left parenthesis straight a plus straight b plus straight c minus 2 straight b right parenthesis
equals space 1 fourth left parenthesis straight b plus straight c minus straight a right parenthesis thin space left parenthesis straight a plus straight c minus straight b right parenthesis

therefore space space straight s left parenthesis straight s minus straight c right parenthesis space plus space left parenthesis straight s minus straight a right parenthesis space left parenthesis straight s minus straight b right parenthesis
 equals space 1 fourth left square bracket left parenthesis straight a plus straight b plus straight c right parenthesis space left parenthesis straight a plus straight b minus straight c right parenthesis space plus space left parenthesis straight b plus straight c minus straight a right parenthesis thin space left parenthesis straight a plus straight c minus straight b right parenthesis right square bracket
equals space 1 fourth left square bracket left parenthesis straight a plus straight b right parenthesis squared minus straight c squared plus space ab space plus space ac minus straight a squared space plus space bc space plus space straight c squared minus ac minus straight b squared minus bc plus ab right square bracket

equals space 1 fourth left square bracket straight a squared plus straight b squared plus 2 ab minus straight c squared plus ab plus ac minus straight a squared plus bc plus straight c squared minus ac minus straight b squared minus bc plus ab right parenthesis
equals space 1 fourth space cross times space 4 ab space equals space ab
