Incircle of DeltaABC touches the sides B...

Incircle of `DeltaABC` touches the sides BC, AC and AB at D, E and F, respectively. Then answer the following question
`angleDEF` is equal to

A

`(pi -B)/(2)`

B

`pi - 2B`

C

`A -C`

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Points I, D, C, E are concylic. Therefore,
`angleEID = pi -C`
Also, I is circumcenter of `DeltaDEF`. Hence,
`angleDFE = (1)/(2) angleDIE = (pi -C)/(2)`
Similarly, `angleFDE = (pi -A)/(2)`
`angleFED = (pi -B)/(2)`
`:.` Area of `DeltaDEF = 2r^(2) sin (angleD) sin (angleE) sin (angleF)`
`= 2r^(2) "cos"(A)/(2) "cos"(B)/(2) "cos"(C)/(2)`
Also by sine rule, in `DeltaDEF`,
`(EF)/(sin angleD) = 2r`
or `EF = 2r cos.(A)/(2)`
