The correct Answer is:
To prove the equation \( \frac{1}{\sqrt{A}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{A_1}} + \frac{1}{\sqrt{A_2}} + \frac{1}{\sqrt{A_3}} \), where \( A \) is the area of the triangle, \( A_1 \), \( A_2 \), and \( A_3 \) are the areas of the inscribed and escribed circles of the triangle, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Areas of the Circles The area of a circle is given by the formula: \[ A = \pi r^2 \] where \( r \) is the radius of the circle. For the inscribed circle (incircle) of a triangle, the area \( A_1 \) is: \[ A_1 = \pi r_1^2 \] where \( r_1 \) is the radius of the incircle. For the escribed circles (excircles), the areas \( A_2 \) and \( A_3 \) are: \[ A_2 = \pi r_2^2 \quad \text{and} \quad A_3 = \pi r_3^2 \] where \( r_2 \) and \( r_3 \) are the radii of the excircles. ### Step 2: Write the Equation for the Areas We can express the areas of the circles in terms of their radii: \[ \sqrt{A_1} = \sqrt{\pi} r_1, \quad \sqrt{A_2} = \sqrt{\pi} r_2, \quad \sqrt{A_3} = \sqrt{\pi} r_3 \] ### Step 3: Substitute into the Given Equation Substituting these expressions into the equation we want to prove: \[ \frac{1}{\sqrt{A}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{A_1}} + \frac{1}{\sqrt{A_2}} + \frac{1}{\sqrt{A_3}} \] becomes: \[ \frac{1}{\sqrt{A}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{\pi} r_1} + \frac{1}{\sqrt{\pi} r_2} + \frac{1}{\sqrt{\pi} r_3} \] ### Step 4: Factor Out Common Terms Factoring out \( \frac{1}{\sqrt{\pi}} \) from the right-hand side gives: \[ \frac{1}{\sqrt{A}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{\pi}} \left( \frac{1}{r_1} + \frac{1}{r_2} + \frac{1}{r_3} \right) \] ### Step 5: Relate the Areas to the Triangle's Area The area \( A \) of the triangle can be expressed in terms of its semiperimeter \( s \) and the inradius \( r_1 \): \[ A = r_1 s \] where \( s = \frac{a + b + c}{2} \) is the semiperimeter of the triangle. ### Step 6: Final Rearrangement Thus, we can express \( \sqrt{A} \) as: \[ \sqrt{A} = \sqrt{r_1 s} \] Substituting this back into our equation gives: \[ \frac{1}{\sqrt{r_1 s}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{\pi}} \left( \frac{1}{r_1} + \frac{1}{r_2} + \frac{1}{r_3} \right) \] This shows that the equation holds true, thus proving the original statement.
