Solution
The correct option is D1r−12R r1bc+r2ca+r3ab=stanA2bc+stanB2ac+stanC2ab=sabc[atanA2+btanB2+ctanC2] Now using a=2RsinA=2R.2sinA2.cosA2=4RsinA2.cosA2, and similarly using the formula for b and c, we get r1bc+r2ca+r3ab=sabc.4R[sin2A2+sin2B2+sin2C2] Using r=△s and R=abc4△, we get sabc.4R=1r. . ⇒r1bc+r2ca+r3ab=1r[1−cosA2+1−cosB2+1−cosC2] . =1r[32−cosA+cosB+cosC2] Now using cosA+cosB+cosC=1+rR, we get r1bc+r2ca+r3ab=1r[1−r2R] . ⇒r1bc+r2ca+r3ab=1r−12R
