In a triangle pqr,pq+qr=14cm, qr+rp=18cms, rp+pq=12cms .find the radius of the circle which has circumference equals to the perimeter of the triangle
Answers
Answer:
R=3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
First do sum of (14+18+12)/2
2*22/7*r=22
R=22*7/22/2
The radius of the given circle whose circumference is equal to the perimeter of the triangle is 3.5 cm.
Given:
pq + qr =14cm
qr + rp =18cm
rp + pq =12cm
To Find:
The radius of the circle whose circumference is equal to perimeter of Δpqr.
Solution:
It is given that, pq+qr=14cm, qr+rp=18cm, and rp+pq=12cm.
Adding all these values, we get
pq + qr + qr+ rp+ rp + pq= 14 + 18 + 12 cm
or, 2 (pq + qr + rp) = 44 cm
or, pq + qr + rp = 22 cm
Now,
Perimeter of Δpqr= pq + qr + rp = 22 cm
We know from the question that,
Circumference of the circle= Perimeter of Δpqr
or, 2 π r = 22 cm
or, r = 22/ 2π = 11/π
or, r = (11 X 7)/22= 7/2
or, r = 3.5 cm
Hence, the radius of the given circle is 3.5 cm.
