Q68 / 160 · TS EAMCET 2022 (20 Jul Shift 2) · Mathematics

In triangle $\mathrm{ABC}$, if $a=7, b=10, c=11$, then $\frac{\mathrm{R}}{r}=$

  • A
    14
  • B
    77
  • C
    $\frac{24}{11}$
  • Correct answer
    D
    $\frac{55}{24}$

Solution

$$ \begin{aligned} & \text { } \mathrm{S}=\frac{7+10+11}{2}=14 \\ & \Delta=\sqrt{14(14-7)(14-10)(14-11)} \\ & =\sqrt{14 \times 7 \times 4 \times 3} \end{aligned} $$ We have $$ \mathrm{R}=\frac{\mathrm{abc}}{4 \mathrm{D}} \text { and } \mathrm{r}=\frac{\Delta}{\mathrm{S}} $$ $$ \begin{aligned} & \therefore \frac{\mathrm{R}}{\mathrm{r}}=\frac{\mathrm{abc}(\mathrm{S})}{4 \mathrm{D}^2} \\ & =\frac{7 \times 10 \times 11 \times 14}{4 \times 14 \times 7 \times 4 \times 3}=\frac{55}{24} \end{aligned} $$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
