ln a\(\Delta A B C,\) if \(\angle C=90^{\circ}, r\) and \(R\) are the inradius and circumrodius of the ABC respectively, then \(2(r+R)\) is equal to

  1. A \(b+c\)
  2. B \(c+a\)
  3. C \(a+b\)
  4. D \(a+b+c\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(a+b\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Tangents drawn from external points are of equal length. \(\Rightarrow \quad B D=B E=a-r\) \([\because C D=r]\) and \(\quad A F=A E=b-r\) \([\because C F=r]\) \(A E+B E=A B\) \(\Rightarrow \quad b-r+a-r=2 R\) \(1 \because A B\) is a diameter of circumcircle]…
