Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \((12,16,20)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

It is given that \(\begin{aligned} r_1 & =8=\frac{\Delta}{s-a} \quad \ldots (i) \\ & r_2=12=\frac{\Delta}{s-b} \quad \ldots (ii) \\ \text { and } \quad r_3 & =24=\frac{\Delta}{s-c} \quad \ldots (iii) \end{aligned}\) From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get…
