MathematicsStraight LinesAP EAMCETAP EAMCET 2020 (21 Sep Shift 1)
Options:
  • A \(\Delta=r+s\)
  • B \(\Delta=\frac{r}{S}\)
  • C \(\Delta=(r \mathrm{~s})^2\)
  • D \(\Delta=r\) s

The correct answer is: \(\Delta=r\) s
Let the length of sides are \(a, b\) and \(c\), so
\(s=\frac{a+b+c}{2}\)
Now, from the diagram area of triangle \(A B C\) is


\(\begin{aligned}
\Delta & =\Delta I B C+\Delta I C A+\Delta I A B \\
& =\frac{1}{2} a r+\frac{1}{2} b r+\frac{1}{2} c r \\
\Delta & =r\left(\frac{a+b+c}{2}\right)=r
\end{aligned}\)
Hence, option (d) is correct.
