 If α, β, γ are the lengths of the tangents from the vertices of a triangle to its incircle. Then

  • α + β + γ = 1r2αβγ

  • α + β + γ = 1rαβγ

  • 1α + 1β + 1γ = rαβγ

A wire of length 2 units is cut into two parts which are bent respectively to form a square of side=x units and a circle of radius=r units. If the sum of the areas of the square and the circle so formed is minimum, then:

  • 2x=(π+4)r

  • (4−π)x=πr

  • x=2r

  • x=2r


C.

x=2r

According to give information, we have
Perimeter of a square + perimeter of a circle
= 2 units

⇒ 4 x + 2πr = 2
 Now, let A be the sum of the areas of the square and the circle.
Then, A = x22r
