Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{a^2+b^2+c^2}{4 \Delta}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let a triangle \(A B C\) of sides \(a, b, c\), having area \(\Delta\) Area \(=\Delta\) \(\frac{1}{2} b c \sin A=\Delta\) \(\ldots({i})\) and \(\quad \frac{1}{2} a c \sin B=\Delta\) \(\ldots({ii})\) and \(\quad \frac{1}{2} a b \sin c=\Delta\) \(\ldots({iii})\) Using cosine rule…
