Question

In a triangle the sum of two sides is x and the product of the same two sides is y.  If x2 – c2 = y, where c is the third side of the triangle, then the ratio of the in-radius to the circum-radius of the triangle is

 3y4c(x+c)

 3y4x(x+c) 

 3y2c(x+c)

 3y2x(x+c)

Solution

a + b = x  

ab = y

x2 – c2 = y

rR = ?

Now rR=Δs4Δabc=4s(sa)(sb)(sc)sabc

 rR=2(sa)(sb)(2s2ca+bc)yc=2(s2sx+y)(xc)c                       y

Now x2 – c2 = y ⇒ (x – c)(x + c) = y        .....(1)

 rR=2(s(sx)+y)c  1x+c using (1)

 =2((x+c2)  (cx2)+y)  1c(x+c)=2(c2x24  +  y)  1c(x+c) 

 =2(y    y4)  1c(x+c)=3y2c(x+c) Ans.

Aliter:   a + b = x

            ab = y

            x2 – c2 = y

            (a + b)2 – c2 = y ⇒ (a + b – c) (a + b + c) = ab

            ⇒   ab = 4s(s – c)

 4ΔtanC2=abtanC2=cR

 

 tanC2=2sinCC=2π3

 

 Now   Δ=12absincΔ=3ab4

Also    Δ=abc4R

One equating both, we get   R =  c3

 

 r=Δsr=3ab·24(a+b+c)r=3ab2(x+c)

 Now  rR=3ab2c(x+c)rR=3y2c(x+c)
