Answer:
Radius of the circle = 1 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
PQR is a right-angled triangle with PQ = 3cm & Q R = 4cm
Assuming triangle is Right angled at Q
PR² = PQ² + QR²
=> PR² = 3² + 4²
=> PR² = 25
=> PR = 5
Area of triangle = (1/2) * PQ * QR = (1/2) * 3 * 4 = 6cm²
r = radius of incircle
Area of triangles = (1/2)(PQ + QR + PR)*r
= (1/2)(3 + 4 + 5)*r
= 6r
6r = 6
=> r = 1
Radius of the circle = 1 cm
