The correct Answer is:
To find the inradius of the triangle given the area (Δ), \( r_1 \), and \( r_3 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Given Values**: - Area of the triangle, \( \Delta = 6 \) - \( r_1 = 3 \) - \( r_3 = 6 \) 2. **Use the Formula for Inradius**: The inradius \( r \) can be calculated using the formula: \[ r = \frac{\Delta}{s} \] where \( s \) is the semi-perimeter of the triangle. 3. **Relate \( r_1 \) and \( r_3 \) to \( s \)**: We know: \[ r_1 = \frac{\Delta}{s-a}, \quad r_2 = \frac{\Delta}{s-b}, \quad r_3 = \frac{\Delta}{s-c} \] From the given values: \[ 3 = \frac{6}{s-a} \quad \text{(1)} \] \[ 6 = \frac{6}{s-c} \quad \text{(2)} \] 4. **Solve for \( s-a \) and \( s-c \)**: From equation (1): \[ s-a = \frac{6}{3} = 2 \implies s = a + 2 \quad \text{(3)} \] From equation (2): \[ s-c = \frac{6}{6} = 1 \implies s = c + 1 \quad \text{(4)} \] 5. **Set up equations for \( s-b \)**: We can also express \( s-b \) using \( r_2 \): \[ r_2 = \frac{\Delta}{s-b} \implies 3 = \frac{6}{s-b} \implies s-b = 2 \quad \text{(5)} \] 6. **Combine Equations**: From equations (3), (4), and (5): - From (3): \( s = a + 2 \) - From (4): \( s = c + 1 \) - From (5): \( s = b + 2 \) 7. **Express \( a, b, c \) in terms of \( s \)**: From (3): \[ a = s - 2 \] From (4): \[ c = s - 1 \] From (5): \[ b = s - 2 \] 8. **Calculate \( a + b + c \)**: \[ a + b + c = (s - 2) + (s - 2) + (s - 1) = 3s - 5 \] 9. **Find \( s \)**: The semi-perimeter \( s \) is also given by: \[ s = \frac{a + b + c}{2} \] Setting \( 3s - 5 = 2s \): \[ 3s - 5 = 2s \implies s = 5 \] 10. **Calculate Inradius**: Now substituting \( s \) back into the inradius formula: \[ r = \frac{\Delta}{s} = \frac{6}{5} = 1.2 \] ### Final Answer: The inradius \( r \) of the triangle is \( 1.2 \).

To find the inradius of the triangle given the area (Δ), \( r_1 \), and \( r_3 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Given Values**: - Area of the triangle, \( \Delta = 6 \) - \( r_1 = 3 \) - \( r_3 = 6 \) ...
