Examples

1. In a $\triangle \mathrm{ABC}$ the inradius and three exradii are $\mathrm{r}, \mathrm{r} _{1}, \mathrm{r} _{2}$ and $\mathrm{r} _{3}$ respectively. In usual notations the value of $\mathrm{r} \cdot \mathrm{r} _{1} \cdot \mathrm{r} _{2} \cdot \mathrm{r} _{3}$ is equal to

Correct option is ‘b’

2. The distance between the circumcentre and the orthocenter of a triangle $\mathrm{ABC}$ is

(a). $\mathrm{R} \sqrt{1-8 \cos \mathrm{A} \cos \mathrm{B} \cos \mathrm{C}}$

(b). $\mathrm{R} \sqrt{1+8 \cos \mathrm{A} \cos B \cos \mathrm{C}}$

(c). $\mathrm{R} \sqrt{1-4 \cos \mathrm{A} \cos \mathrm{B} \cos \mathrm{C}}$

(d). None of these

Show Answer

Solution:

Let $\mathrm{O} \& \mathrm{P}$ be circumcenter and orthocentre respectively of $\triangle \mathrm{ABC}$

$\mathrm{OF} \perp \mathrm{AB}$.

We have $\angle \mathrm{OAF}=90^{\circ}-\mathrm{C}(\because \angle \mathrm{AOF}=\angle \mathrm{C})$

$ =\angle \mathrm{PAE}(\operatorname{In} \triangle \mathrm{ADC}) $

$ \begin{aligned} & \angle \mathrm{OAP}=\angle \mathrm{A}-\angle \mathrm{OAF}-\angle \mathrm{PAE} \\ & =\angle \mathrm{A}-\left(90^{\circ} \angle \mathrm{C}\right)-\left(90^{\circ} \angle \mathrm{C}\right) \\ & =\angle \mathrm{A}+2 \angle \mathrm{C}-180^{\circ} \\ & =\angle \mathrm{A}+2 \angle \mathrm{C}-(\angle \mathrm{A}+\angle \mathrm{B}+\angle \mathrm{C}) \\ & =\angle \mathrm{C}-\angle \mathrm{B} \end{aligned} $

$\mathrm{OA}=\mathrm{R}$ (circum radius) and $\mathrm{PA}=2 \mathrm{R} \cos \mathrm{A}$

In $\triangle$ OAP

$ \mathrm{OP}^{2}=\mathrm{OA}^{2}+\mathrm{PA}^{2}-2(\mathrm{OA})(\mathrm{PA}) \operatorname{COS}(\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{B}) $

$ =R^{2}+4 R^{2} \cos ^{2} A-4 R^{2} \cos A \cos (C-B) $

$ \begin{aligned} & =R^{2}+4 R^{2} \cos A(\cos A-\cos (C-B) \\ & =R^{2}+4 R^{2} \cos A(-\cos (B+C)-\cos (C-B)) \\ & =R^{2}-4 R^{2} \cos A(\cos (B+C)+\cos (C-B)) \\ & =R^{2}-4 R^{2} \cos A(2 \cos B \cos C) \\ & =R^{2}-8 R^{2} \cos A \cos B \cos C \end{aligned} $

$\mathrm{OP}^{2}=\mathrm{R}^{2}(1-8 \cos \mathrm{A} \cos \mathrm{B} \cos \mathrm{C})$

$\mathrm{OP}=\mathrm{R} \sqrt{1-8 \cos \mathrm{A} \cos \mathrm{B} \cos \mathrm{C}}$

Hence ‘a’ is the correct option

3. The radii $r _{1}, r _{2}, r _{3}$, of escribed circles of the triangle $A B C$ are in HP. If its area is $24 \mathrm{sq} . \mathrm{cm}$ and its perimeter is $24 \mathrm{~cm}$, then the lengths of its sides are

(a). $4, 6, 8$

(b). $3, 9, 11$

(c). $6, 8,1 0$

(d). None of these

Show Answer

Solution:

Given that $r _{1}, r _{2} r _{3}$ are in HP

i.e. $\frac{\mathrm{s}-\mathrm{a}}{\Delta}, \frac{\mathrm{s}-\mathrm{b}}{\Delta}, \frac{\mathrm{s}-\mathrm{c}}{\Delta}$ are in A.P

or $\mathrm{s}-\mathrm{a}, \mathrm{s}-\mathrm{b}, \mathrm{s}-\mathrm{c}$ are in A.P

or a, b, c are in AP

$\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{c}=2 \mathrm{~b}$

$\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}+\mathrm{c}=24$

$3 \mathrm{~b}=24$

$\mathrm{b}=8$

$\mathrm{s}=\frac{24}{2}=12$

$\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{c}=16$

$\mathrm{c}=16-\mathrm{a}$

$\Delta^{2}=\mathrm{s}(\mathrm{s}-\mathrm{a})(\mathrm{s}-\mathrm{b})(\mathrm{s}-\mathrm{c})$

$24 \times 24=12(12-\mathrm{a})(12-8)(12-(16-\mathrm{a}))$

$24 \times 24=12 \times 4(12-a)(a-4)$

$12=(12-a)(a-4)$

$a^{2}-16 a+60=0$

$a^{2}-10 a-6 a+60=0$

$(a-10)(a-6)=0$

$\mathrm{a}=10$ or $\mathrm{a}=6$

$\mathrm{a}=10, \mathrm{c}=6, \mathrm{~b}=8$ or $\mathrm{a}=6, \mathrm{~b}=8, \mathrm{c}=10$

Correct option is ‘c’

4. In $\triangle \mathrm{ABC}$ the value of $\frac{\mathrm{r} _{1}+\mathrm{r} _{2}}{1+\cos \mathrm{c}}$ is always equal to

(a). $2 \mathrm{r}$

(b). $2 \mathrm{R}$

(c). $\frac{2 r^{2}}{R}$

(d). $\frac{2 R^{2}}{r}$

Show Answer

Solution:

We know

$ \begin{aligned} & r _{1}+r _{2}=4 R \sin \frac{A}{2} \cos \frac{B}{2} \cos \frac{C}{2}+4 R \sin \frac{B}{2} \cos \frac{C}{2} \cos \frac{A}{2} \\ &=4 R \cos \frac{C}{2}\left(\sin \frac{A}{2} \cos \frac{B}{2}+\cos \frac{A}{2} \sin \frac{B}{2}\right) \\ &=4 R \cos \frac{C}{2}\left(\sin \left(\frac{A+B}{2}\right)\right) \\ &=4 R \cos \frac{C}{2}\left(\cos \frac{C}{2}\right) \\ &=4 R \cos ^{2} \frac{C}{2} \\ &=2 R(1+\cos C) \\ & \quad\left(1+\cos 2 \theta=2 \cos ^{2} \theta\right) \end{aligned} $

$\therefore \frac{\mathrm{r} _{1}+\mathrm{r} _{2}}{1+\cos \mathrm{C}}=2 \mathrm{R}$

5. Let $\mathrm{ABCD}$ be a quadrilateral with area 18 with side $\mathrm{AB}$ parallel to the side $\mathrm{CD}$ and $\mathrm{AB}=2 \mathrm{CD}$. Let $A D$ be perpendicular to $A B$ and $C D$.If a circle is drawn inside the quadrilaterals $A B C D$ touching all the sides, then its radius is

(a). $3$

(b). $2$

(c). $\frac{3}{2}$

(d). $1$

Show Answer

Solution:

Given that $\mathrm{AB}=2 \mathrm{CD}$

Let $\mathrm{CD}=\mathrm{a} \quad \therefore \mathrm{AB}=2 \mathrm{a}$

$\therefore \mathrm{B}(2 \mathrm{a}, 0)$

and $\mathrm{c}(\mathrm{a}, 2 \mathrm{r})$

Let the centre of in circle be $( \mathrm{r}, \mathrm{r})$

Where $r$ is the radius of the circle

Since $A B \| ^\ell$ to $C D$

$\therefore \mathrm{ABCD}$ is a trapezium

$\operatorname{ar}(\mathrm{ABCD})=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{~h}$ (sum of parallel sides)

$=\frac{1}{2} \times 2 \mathrm{r}(\mathrm{a}+2 \mathrm{a})$

$18=3$ ar

$ar =6$

Now $\mathrm{BC}$ is a tangent to the circle

$ (x-r)^{2}+(y-r)^{2}=r^{2} $

Equation of tangent is $y=-\frac{2 r}{2}(x-2 a)$

$2\mathrm{rx}+\mathrm{ay}-4 \mathrm{ar}=0$

$\therefore \mathrm{r}=\left|\frac{2 \mathrm{r}^{2}+\mathrm{ar}-4 \mathrm{ar}}{\sqrt{4 \mathrm{r}^{2}+\mathrm{a}^{2}}}\right|$

$r=\left|\frac{2 r^{2}-3 a r}{\sqrt{4 r^{2}+a^{2}}}\right|$

squaring

$4 r^{4}+a^{2} r^{2}=4 r^{4}+9 a^{2} r^{2}-12 a r^{3}$

$12 \mathrm{ar}^{3}=8 \mathrm{a}^{2} \mathrm{r}^{2}$

$3 \mathrm{r}=2 \mathrm{a} \quad[\therefore \mathrm{ar}=6]$

$3 \mathrm{r}^{2}=2 \mathrm{ar}$

$3 \mathrm{r}^{2}=12$

$\mathrm{r}^{2}=4$

$\mathrm{r}=2$

6. In a triangle $\mathrm{ABC}, \mathrm{a}: \mathrm{b}: \mathrm{c}=4: 5: 6$. The ratio of the radius of the circumcircle to that of the incircle is

(a). $\frac{15}{4}$

(b). $\frac{11}{5}$

(c). $\frac{16}{7}$

(d). $\frac{16}{3}$

Show Answer

Solution:

$ \begin{aligned} & \mathrm{R}=\frac{\mathrm{abc}}{4 \Delta}, \quad \mathrm{r}=\frac{\Delta}{\mathrm{s}} \\ & \frac{\mathrm{R}}{\mathrm{r}}=\frac{\mathrm{abc}}{4 \Delta} \times \frac{\mathrm{s}}{\Delta} \\ & =\frac{\mathrm{abc} \times \mathrm{s}}{4 \Delta^{2}} \\ & =\frac{\mathrm{abc} \times \mathrm{s}}{4(\mathrm{~s}(\mathrm{~s}-\mathrm{a})(\mathrm{s}-\mathrm{b})(\mathrm{s}-\mathrm{c}))} \\ & =\frac{2 \mathrm{abc}}{(2 \mathrm{~s}-2 \mathrm{a})(2 \mathrm{~s}-2 \mathrm{~b})(2 \mathrm{~s}-2 \mathrm{c})} \\ & =\frac{2 \mathrm{abc}}{(\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}-\mathrm{c})(\mathrm{c}+\mathrm{a}-\mathrm{b})(\mathrm{b}+\mathrm{c}-\mathrm{a})} \\ & =\frac{2.4 .5 .6}{3.5 .7} \\ & =\frac{16}{7} \end{aligned} $

7. The value of $\frac{1}{\mathrm{r} _{1}{ }^{2}}+\frac{1}{\mathrm{r} _{2}{ }^{2}}+\frac{1}{\mathrm{r} _{3}{ }^{2}}+\frac{1}{\mathrm{r}^{2}}$ is

(a). $0$

(b). $\frac{\mathrm{a}^{2}+\mathrm{b}^{2}+\mathrm{c}^{2}}{\Delta^{2}}$

(c). $\frac{\Delta^{2}}{a^{2}+b^{2}+c^{2}}$

(d). $\frac{\mathrm{a}^{2}+\mathrm{b}^{2}+\mathrm{c}^{2}}{\Delta}$

Show Answer

Solution:

$\therefore \frac{1}{\mathrm{r} _{1}{ }^{2}}=\frac{(\mathrm{s}-\mathrm{a})^{2}}{\Delta^{2}} ; \frac{1}{\mathrm{r} _{2}{ }^{2}}=\frac{(\mathrm{s}-\mathrm{b})^{2}}{\Delta^{2}} ; \frac{1}{\mathrm{r} _{3}{ }^{2}}=\frac{(\mathrm{s}-\mathrm{c})^{2}}{\Delta^{2}} ; \frac{1}{\mathrm{r}^{2}}=\frac{\mathrm{s}^{2}}{\Delta^{2}}$

$\therefore \frac{1}{\mathrm{r} _{1}{ }^{2}}+\frac{1}{\mathrm{r} _{2}{ }^{2}}+\frac{1}{\mathrm{r} _{3}{ }^{2}}+\frac{1}{\mathrm{r}^{2}}=\frac{\mathrm{s}^{2}+(\mathrm{s}-\mathrm{a})^{2}+(\mathrm{s}-\mathrm{b})^{2}+(\mathrm{s}-\mathrm{c})^{2}}{\Delta^{2}}$

$=\frac{4 \mathrm{~s}^{2}+\mathrm{a}^{2}+\mathrm{b}^{2}+\mathrm{c}^{2}-2 \mathrm{~s}(\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}+\mathrm{c})}{\Delta^{2}}$

$=\frac{4 \mathrm{~s}^{2}+\mathrm{a}^{2}+\mathrm{b}^{2}+\mathrm{c}^{2}-4 \mathrm{~s}^{2}}{\Delta^{2}} \quad(\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}+\mathrm{c}=2 \mathrm{~s})$

$=\frac{\mathrm{a}^{2}+\mathrm{b}^{2}+\mathrm{c}^{2}}{\Delta^{2}}$
