GEOMETRY ESCRIBED CIRCLE 3D

A triangle has sides 34 cm, 36 cm and 18

cm. Determine the radius of the circle
that is escribed in 36-cm side.
SOLUTION:
a = 34 cm; b = 36 cm and c = 18 cm
s = (34 + 36 + 18)/2
s = 44 cm
A = s s a s b s c
A = [44(44 - 34)(44 - 36)(44 - 18)]
A = 302.52 cm2
A = rb(s b)
302.52 = rb(44 36)
rb = 37.82 cm
