Correct Option: C
According to question , we draw a figure of a triangle ABC
Given , ∠ BAD = 30° , AE : ED = 5 : 1 and tan (∠ ACB) = 6 tan (∠DBE)
∠ ABD = 60° [∵ ∠ADB = 90°]
= | |||
tan ∠DBE | DE/BD |
= | × | = 6 | |||
DC | DE | DC |
∴ 6 | = 6 | |
DC |
⇒ BD = DC
∆ ADB ≌ ∆ ADC
⇒ ∠ABD = ∠ACD = 60°
∴∠ ACB = 60°
Hence, ∆ ABC is an equilateral triangle
