Answer 1

Solution is attached below

Answer 2

Dear Student,

● Answer -

Circumradius = 5 cm

● Explanation -

# Given -

Three sides of triangle

a = 6 cm

b = 8 cm

c = 10 cm

# Solution -

Circumradius of triangle is calculated by formula -

R = abc / √[(a+b+c)(a+b-c)(a-b+c)(-a+b+c)]

R = 6 × 8 × 10 / √[(6+8+10)(6+8-10)(6-8+10)(-6+8+10)]

R = 480 / √(24 × 4 × 8 × 12)

R = 480 / √(96×96)

R = 480 / 96

R = 5 cm

Hence, circumradius is 5 cm.

Hope this helps you...
