Solution

The correct option is A cscA/2:cscB/2:cscC/2

It is given that, I is the incentre of ΔABC. Let r be the radius of the circle.

We know that,

IA=rsin(A/2)

IB=rsin(B/2)

IC=rsin(C/2)

Therefore,

IA:IB:IC=rsin(A/2):rsin(B/2):rsin(C/2)

=cscA2:cscB2:cscC2

Hence, this is the required ratio.
