Solution

The correct option is D 1r12R
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[1cosA2+1cosB2+1cosC2]
.
=1r[32cosA+cosB+cosC2]
Now using cosA+cosB+cosC=1+rR, we get
r1bc+r2ca+r3ab=1r[1r2R]
.
r1bc+r2ca+r3ab=1r12R
