radius of the inscribed circle = 8/√3 cm , Area of shaded region = 43.8 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangle is Equilateral Triangle of side 16 cm
Area of Equilateral Triangle = (√3 / 4)(16)²
Let say r is radius of incircle
Then Area of Triangle
= (1/2) 16 * r + (1/2)*16*r + (1/2)16*r
= (3/2) * 16 r
(3/2) * 16 r = (√3 / 4)(16)²
=> (3/2) r = (√3 / 4) * 16
=> (3/2) r = √3 * 4
=> 3r = 8√3
=> r = 8/√3
Area of shaded region = Area of Triangle - Area of circle
= (√3 / 4)(16)² - π (8/√3)²
= 110.8 - 67
= 43.8 cm²
