Let angle A is 120-\theta

where c is \theta

Now \frac{\grave{a}}{\sin (120-\theta )}=\frac{b}{\sin 60^o}=K\\ \therefore a=K\sin (120-\theta )=K(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\cos \theta+\frac{1}{2}\sin \theta )

b=K\sin 60^o=\frac{K\sqrt{3}}{2}\\ A=\frac{1}{2}ab\sin \theta ,given\: a+b=4\\ for \:max\:Area \frac{dA}{d\theta }=0\\ \therefore \theta =60^o=\frac{\pi }{3}


Option 1)

\frac{\pi}{4}

Option 2)

   \frac{\pi}{3}

This solution is correct 

Option 3)
