Is it a valid method of Proof?

27 Views Asked by At

Sorry for asking a trivial question.

If I have to proof a statement like this:

$tan A tan B + tan B tan C + tan C tan A = 9$, then prove that the triangle ABC is equilateral.

My proof: If the triangle is equilateral then each angle must be equal to $\frac{π}{3}$, As $tan(\frac{π}{3}) = √3$, So 3+3+3=9, hence proved.

Is it a valid method of proof. If not, please tell how to tackle these problems.
