Triangles - Area through inradius and circumradius

Rarely Tested

- A = $$\frac{abc}{4R}$$ where R is the circumradius

- A = rs where r is the inradius and s is the semi-perimeter.

- The area of a right angled triangle with inradius r and circumradius R is r(r+2R)

Question 1

The coordinates of the three vertices of a triangle are: (1, 2), (7, 2), and (1, 10). Then the radius of the incircle of the triangle is

Question 2

In a triangle ABC, the lengths of the sides AB and AC equal 17.5 cm and 9 cm respectively. Let D be a point on the line segment BC such that AD is perpendicular to BC. If AD = 3 cm, then what is the radius (in cm) of the circle circumscribing the triangle ABC?

Question 3

If the lengths of diagonals DF, AG and CE of the cube shown in the adjoining figure are equal to the three sides of a triangle, then the radius of the circle circumscribing that triangle will be?
