Answer:
were is the image bro
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : In a right triangle abc, AB = 8 cm and AC = 6 cm. Find the radius of its in-circle.
To find : Radius of the circle inscribed in the triangle.
Solution :
AB = 8 cm ; AC = 6 cm.
By applying Pythagoras theorem,
BC² = AB² + AC²
BC² = 8² + 6²
= 64 + 36
BC² = 100
BC = 10 cm.
Formula :
Radius of triangle = \frac{\text { Area of triangle }}{\text { Semi-perimeter of triangle }}
Semi-perimeter of triangle
Area of triangle
Area of triangle = \frac{1}{2}\times\{b\}\times\{h\}

Finding radius of the circle inscribed in the triangle :
Area of triangle = \frac{1}{2}\times\{b\}\times\{h\}

Area of triangle = 24
Semi-perimeter of triangle = \frac{a+b+c}{2}

a+b+c
a = 8 ; b = 6 ; c = 10
= \frac{8+6+10}{2}

8+6+10
= \frac{24}{2}

Semi-perimeter of triangle = 12.
Radius of triangle = \frac{\text { Area of triangle }}{\text { Semi-perimeter of triangle }}
Semi-perimeter of triangle
Area of triangle
= \frac{24}{12}

Radius of triangle = 2 cm.
Therefore, the radius of the circle inscribed in the triangle is 2 cm.
