The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will analyze the given information and use geometric properties of the triangle and its inscribed circle. ### Step 1: Understand the Geometry We have a triangle \( ABC \) with an inscribed circle that touches the sides \( AB, AC, \) and \( BC \) at points \( D, E, \) and \( F \) respectively. The center of the circle is denoted as \( I \). ### Step 2: Define Areas of Quadrilaterals We are given: - Area of quadrilateral \( ADIE = 5 \) units - Area of quadrilateral \( BFID = 10 \) units ### Step 3: Express Areas in Terms of R and Segments The area of quadrilateral \( ADIE \) can be expressed as the sum of the areas of triangles \( ADI \) and \( AEI \): \[ \text{Area of } ADIE = \text{Area of } \triangle ADI + \text{Area of } \triangle AEI \] Using the formula for the area of a triangle, we have: \[ \text{Area of } \triangle ADI = \frac{1}{2} R \cdot AD = \frac{1}{2} R \cdot x \] \[ \text{Area of } \triangle AEI = \frac{1}{2} R \cdot AE = \frac{1}{2} R \cdot x \] Thus, \[ \text{Area of } ADIE = \frac{1}{2} R \cdot x + \frac{1}{2} R \cdot x = R \cdot x \] Setting this equal to 5, we have: \[ R \cdot x = 5 \quad \text{(1)} \] ### Step 4: Analyze the Second Quadrilateral For quadrilateral \( BFID \): \[ \text{Area of } BFID = \text{Area of } \triangle BIE + \text{Area of } \triangle BID \] Using similar reasoning: \[ \text{Area of } \triangle BIE = \frac{1}{2} R \cdot BI = \frac{1}{2} R \cdot y \] \[ \text{Area of } \triangle BID = \frac{1}{2} R \cdot BI = \frac{1}{2} R \cdot y \] Thus, \[ \text{Area of } BFID = R \cdot y \] Setting this equal to 10, we have: \[ R \cdot y = 10 \quad \text{(2)} \] ### Step 5: Solve for x and y From equations (1) and (2): 1. \( R \cdot x = 5 \) implies \( x = \frac{5}{R} \) 2. \( R \cdot y = 10 \) implies \( y = \frac{10}{R} \) ### Step 6: Find the Lengths of Sides The total length \( AB \) can be expressed as: \[ AB = AD + BD = x + y = \frac{5}{R} + \frac{10}{R} = \frac{15}{R} \] ### Step 7: Apply the Cosine and Sine Formulas We need to find: \[ \frac{\cos(\frac{C}{2})}{\sin(\frac{A-B}{2})} \] Using the formula: \[ \sin\left(\frac{A-B}{2}\right) = \frac{c}{a-b} \] Where \( c = AB \), \( a = BC \), and \( b = AC \). ### Step 8: Calculate \( a - b \) From our earlier definitions: \[ a = y + z, \quad b = x + z \] Thus, \[ a - b = (y + z) - (x + z) = y - x \] Substituting the values of \( x \) and \( y \): \[ y - x = \frac{10}{R} - \frac{5}{R} = \frac{5}{R} \] ### Step 9: Final Calculation Now substituting into the ratio: \[ \frac{c}{a-b} = \frac{\frac{15}{R}}{\frac{5}{R}} = 3 \] Thus, \[ \frac{\cos(\frac{C}{2})}{\sin(\frac{A-B}{2})} = 3 \] ### Final Answer The value of \( \frac{\cos(\frac{C}{2})}{\sin(\frac{A-B}{2})} \) is \( 3 \). ---
