  1. A \(\frac{8}{15}\)
  2. B \(\frac{7}{16}\)
  3. C \(\frac{3}{5}\)
  4. D \(\frac{5}{8}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{7}{16}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(s = \frac{8+10+12}{2} = 15\) \(\Delta^2 = s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c) = 15(15-8)(15-10)(15-12) = 15 \cdot 7 \cdot 5 \cdot 3 = 1575\) \(abc = 8 \cdot 10 \cdot 12 = 960\) \(\frac{r}{R} = \frac{4\Delta^2}{s \cdot abc} = \frac{4 \cdot 1575}{15 \cdot 960} = \frac{6300}{14400} = \frac{7}{16}\)
