(C) Let the increasing $G.P.$ be $k, kr, kr^2, kr^3$ where $r > 1$ and $k > 0$.Then $\alpha = k, \beta = kr, \gamma = kr^2, \delta = kr^3$.From the first equation $x^2 - 3x + a = 0$,the sum of roots $\alpha + \beta = k(1 + r) = 3$ and product $\alpha \beta = k^2 r = a$.From the second equation $x^2 - 12x + b = 0$,the sum of roots $\gamma + \delta = kr^2(1 + r) = 12$ and product $\gamma \delta = k^2 r^5 = b$.Dividing the sum equations: $\frac{kr^2(1 + r)}{k(1 + r)} = \frac{12}{3} \implies r^2 = 4$. Since the $G.P.$ is increasing,$r = 2$.Substituting $r = 2$ into $k(1 + r) = 3$,we get $k(3) = 3 \implies k = 1$.Thus,the roots are $1, 2, 4, 8$.Then $a = \alpha \beta = 1 	imes 2 = 2$ and $b = \gamma \delta = 4 	imes 8 = 32$.Therefore,$(a, b) = (2, 32)$.

If $\alpha, \beta$ are the roots of the equation $x^2 - 3x + a = 0$ and $\gamma, \delta$ are the roots of the equation $x^2 - 12x + b = 0$,and if $\alpha, \beta, \gamma, \delta$ form an increasing $G.P.$,then $(a, b) = $
