In triangle ABC, if cos A + cos B + cos ...

In triangle ABC, if `cos A + cos B + cos C = (7)/(4), " then " (R)/(r)` is equal to

A

`(3)/(4)`

B

`(4)/(3)`

C

`(2)/(3)`

D

`(3)/(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`cos A + cos B + cos C = (7)/(4)`
`rArr 1 + 4 sin.(A)/(2) sin.(B)/(2) sin.(C)/(2) = (7)/(4)`
or `4 sin.(A)/(2) sin.(B)/(2) sin.(C)/(2) = (3)/(4)`
` :' r = 4R sin(A//2) sin(B//2) sin(C//2)]`
or `(r)/(R) = (3)/(4) " or " (R)/(r) = (4)/(3)`
