Correct Option - 2
Detailed Solution:Given the determinant:
| α β γ |
| β γ α | = 0
| γ α β |The expansion of this determinant is - (α³ + β³ + γ³ - 3αβγ) = 0.
This implies (α+β+γ) (α²+β²+γ²-αβ-βγ-γα) = 0.From a cubic equation x³ + ax² + bx + c = 0 with roots α, β, γ:
α+β+γ = -a
αβ+βγ+γα = b
αβγ = -cSubstituting into the determinant condition:
(-a) ( (α+β+γ)² - 3 (αβ+β&...more

Statement 1 is true
f(0) = – 1 < 0
one root lies in , one root is which is positive. As the coefficients are real, therefore all the roots must be real.
Statement 2 is false.
tan2 A = tan B tan C
It is only possible when A = B = C at x = 1
A = 30°, B = 30°, C = 30°
a = sin−1 (sin5) = 5 − 2π
and b = cos−1 (cos5) = 2π − 5
∴ a2 + b2 = (5 − 2π)2 + (2π − 5)2
= 8π2 − 40π + 50
