Which of the following expresses the circumference of a circle inscribed in a sector `O A B` with radius `Ra n dA B=2a ?` (a)`2pi(R a)/(R+a)` (b) `(2piR^2)/a` `(c) 2pi(r-a)^2` (d) `2piR/(R-a)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We can create a diagram with the given details.
Please refer to video for the diagram.
From the diagram,
`sintheta = r/(OM) = a/(AO)`
`=>r/a = (OM)/R`
`=>r/a = (R-r)/R`
`=>r/a = 1 - r/R`
`=>r/a+r/R = 1`
