33 cm
ABC is an equilateral triangle.
AB = BC = CA = 9 cm
<BOC = 2<BAC
= 2× 60°
= 120°
OD bisects BC perpendicularly.
In ∆BOC ,
<OBD = 30° ,
BD = BC/2 = 9/2 cm
\begin{lgathered}cos 30\degree = \frac{BD}{OB}\\=\frac{\frac{9}{2}}{r}\end{lgathered}
Therefore, 33 cm

Answer:
Let triangle ABC be an equilateral triangle of side 9 cm and AD is the median where G be the centroid of the triangle which divides median into 2:1.
GD is perpendicular to BC.
In right triangle ADB,
AD2 + DB2 = AB2 where AB = 9 cm and BD = 4.5 cm
AD2 + (9/2)2 = 92
AD2 = 81 - 81/4 = 243/4
AD = 9√3/2
Radius = 2/3 AD = 2/3 × 9√3/2 = 3√3 cm
