Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) (0, 2)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The triangle formed by the lines \(y=\sqrt{3} x, y=-\sqrt{3} x\) and \(y=3\) is shown in the figure. We can observe that the triangle \(A B C\) is an isosceles triangle. Therefore, the incentre lie on the median to the base. Since \(D\) is mid-point of \(B C\). So, \(O D\) is…
