Solution

The correct options are
A Δ14(a+b+c)abc
B Δ=14(a+b+c)abc if a=b=c
We have a2a2(bc)2=(a+bc)(ab+c)

a2(2s2c)(2s2b)=4(sb)(sc)

Similarly b24(sc)(sa)

c24(sa)(sb)

So that a2b2c264[(sa)(sb)(sc)]2

abc8(sa)(sb)(sc)

(a+b+c)(abc)8×2s(sa)(sb)(sc)=16Δ2

Δ14(a+b+c)abc

and if a=b=c, the triangle is equilateral and its area is

=14(a+b+c)abc=143a×a3=3a24
