Let X , Y , and Z be the points of tangency of the circle to the triangle sides A B , B C , and C A , respectively. By the ice-cream cone theorem (a special case of a Power of a Point), A X = A Z , B X = B Y , and C Y = C X . Thus we have three unknowns for the lengths of the perimeter of the triangle, and three equations, namely A X + B X = 5 1 , B Y + C Y = 4 5 , and A Z + C Z = 2 4 .
After solving, we are especially interested in C Y = C Z = 9 . Since we know ∠ I Y C = ∠ I Z C = ∠ Y C Z = 9 0 ∘ and C Y = C Z , I Y C Z is a square. Thus the radius of the circle is I Y = Y C = 9 . The area is 8 1 π , so our answer is 8 1 .
We know the radius of a circle inscribed inside a right triangle can be found from
Radius = (45+24-51)/2 =9
Therefore the area of the circle is (pi)(9^2)
Therefore a=81
We know that, the radius r of the circle inscribed in a right triangle can be defined as,
r = 2 a + b − c
where, c is the hypotenuse and a and b are the other two sides.
Putting in the values of A B , A C and C B in the identity, we get,
r = 2 4 5 + 2 4 − 5 1 = 2 1 8 = 9
So, the area of the circle is,
π r 2 = π × 9 2 = 8 1 π
Hence, the value of a is 8 1 .
inradius=area/semi perimeter=(1/2 * 45 *24)/(45+24+51)/2=540/60=9,so area of circle=pi * 9^2=81pi
radius= triangular area/k = √k(k-a)(k-b)(k-c) / k where k=1/2(a+b+c) where a, b and c are the side lengths of the triangle a= 51 b=24 c=45
k= 1/2(51+24+45) k= 1/2(120) k=60
radius= √60(60-51)(60-24)(60-45) / 60 radius=√60(9)(36)(15) / 60 radius=√291600 / 60 radius=540/60 radius=9
area=r^2 π area=9^2 π area=81 π therefore a=81
En español:
Siendo un circulo inscrito en un triángulo el radio del circulo sera igual al inradio. Teniendo la formula del área de un triangulo
A
=
s
r
Donde:
A es el area, s el semiperimetro y r el inradio.
Despejando \(r ) \( r=A/s \)
El área es igual a A = ( B a s e ∗ A l t u r a ) / 2 = ( 2 4 ∗ 4 5 ) / 2 = 5 4 0 . El semiperimetro es igual a s = ( A B + A C + C B ) / 2 = ( 5 1 + 2 4 + 4 5 ) / 2 = 6 0 .
Reemplazando r = A / s = 5 4 0 / 6 0 = 9 Como el área del circulo es igual a r 2 ∗ π el resultado es 9 2 = 8 1
Using the relation, in-radius, r = s Δ where Δ is the are of the triangle and s the semi-perimeter. Hence r = 9 . So, the answer is 8 1 .
Let point of contact be D,E and F on AC,CB and BA respectively. Let CD=CE=x, since tangent drawn from a point to a circle are of equal length then BE=BF=45-x, therefore again using above theorem we have, AF=AD=6+x , since AF+FB=AB=51, this implies (6+x)+x=24 (i.e. AD+DC=AC) so, x=9, which is the radius of circle area=9 9 pi so a=81
r = area of triangle/semi-perimeter As area of in-circle = aπ, r = √a = (0.5 24 45)/{0.5(24+45+51)} = (24*45)/120 = 9 or a = 81
Let us draw perpendiculars from point I on sides AB, BC, CA. Let's call the feet of these perpendiculars as points D,E,F respectively. Now let the radius of the circle be r. therefore, ID = IE = IF = FC = CE = r Also BE=(45-r) and AF=(24-r) By properties of congruence of two triangles, we can easily show that the triangles IFA and IDA are congruent, so are the triangles IEB and IDB. Hence, EB = DB = (45-r) and AF = AD = (24-r) but AB = AD + DB so 51 = (45-r) + (24-r) Solving this we get r = 9 and area of circle = 81 pi
You can find the radius of the inscribed circle of a triangle by formula r=L/s. L=(24x45)/2=540 and s=(24+45+51)/2=60 and we get r=540/60=9. The area of the circle can be ound by formula L=r^2xpi and a=r^2=81
Note 24^2 + 45^ 2= 51^2, therefore ABC is a right triangle, and therefore its circumradius is equal to half the hypotenuse, or 51/ 2.
Using equation r = a b c/ 4 s R, where r is the triangle's in radius, a,b,c its sides, and s its semi perimeter, so r=9, therefore the inscribed circle's area is equal to 81π, and a=81.
We see that the incircle formula gives inradius=(45+24-51)/2=9
Let the intersection of circle centred at I with △ A B C , 's sides AB, BC , CA be D,E,F Since , A D = A F , B D = B E , C F = C E . & radius of circle r = C F ( since, C B ⊥ A C ) , s = semi perimeter of triangle .
Since , s = ( A B + B C + A C ) / 2 = A D + B E + C F . = A B + r ( A D + B E = A D + B D )
We have ( 5 1 + 2 4 + 4 5 ) / 2 = 5 1 + r . ,
r = 9 .
So , area of circle = π ∗ r 2 = 8 1 ∗ r
a*pi is the area of triangle
a=r^2
x=51; y=24; z=45; s=(x+y+z)/2 R=(s (s-x) (s-y)*(s-z))^(1/2)/s
a=(s (s-x) (s-y)*(s-z))/s^2
a=60 9 36 15/60 60=81
Let r=radius;
r=(BC+CA-AB)/2 r=(45+24-51)/2 r=9
The area of the circle is 81π. Therefore a=81.
You should be careful and explain the conditions for which your equation r = ( B C + C A − A B ) / 2 holds
First, we must find the radius r, from the equation of the area of the triangle ABC: (24 r)/2 + (45 r)/2 + (51 r)/2 = (24)(45)/2. We get r = 9. Then the Area is aπ = 81 π. So a = 81.
Note 2 4 2 + 4 5 2 = 5 1 2 , therefore A B C is a right triangle, and therefore its circumradius is equal to half the hypotenuse, or 2 5 1 . Through the equation r = 4 s R a b c , where r is the triangle's inradius, a , b , c its sides, and s its semiperimeter, we obtain r = 9 , therefore the inscribed circle's area is equal to 8 1 π , and a = 8 1 .
we know that tangent lines in a certain intersection point have the same length. and by using ratios, we can get the length of the three pair of tangent lines: 9, 15,36..
the area of a circle is π r 2 the radius of the circle is the tangent line with a right angle, in this case, 9 so the area is π 9 2 = 81 π and a = 81
Great approach, realizing that in a right triangle, the radius has length equal to one of the tangents.
The semiperimeter of the triangle is 60, and as the area is 2 4 ⋅ 4 5 , the radius of the inscribed triangle is 6 0 2 4 ⋅ 4 5 = 9 . As the radius is 9, the area is 8 1 π .

r = (area of triangle)/(semiperimeter) = 9. Hence are of circle =81*(p1) , so a=81
