An equilateral triangle of side √3cm is inscribed in a circle. Find the radius of the circle.
2/3 cm
2 cm
1 cm
3 cm
Correct answer is C
Since the inscribed triangle is equilateral, therefore the angles at all the points = 60°
Using the formula for inscribed circle,
2R = \(\frac{a}{\sin A} = \frac{b}{\sin B} = \frac{c}{\sin C}\)
where R = radius of the circle; a, b and c are the sides of the triangle.
⇒ 2R = \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sin 60}\)
2R = \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}\)
2R = 2
R = 1cm
