In a non-right-angled triangle δPQR,\delta PQR, let p,q,rp, q, r denote the lengths of the sides opposite to the angles at P,Q,RP, Q, R respectively. The median from RR meets the side PQPQ at S,S, the perpendicular from PP meets the side QRQR at EE, and RSRS and PEPE intersect at 0.0 . If p=3,q=1,p = \sqrt{3}, q = 1, and the radius of the circumcircle of the δPQR\delta PQR equals 1,1, then which of the following options is/are correct?In a non-right-angled triangle PQR, let p, q, r denote the lengths of the sides opposite to the angles at P, Q, R

Options

  1. ALength of RS=72RS = \dfrac{\sqrt{7}}{2}
  2. BArea of δSOE=312\delta SOE = \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{12}
  3. CRadius of incircle of $\delta PRQ = \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\left(2 - \sqrt{3}\right)
  4. DLength of OE=16OE = \dfrac{1}{6}

Correct answer

A. Length of RS=72RS = \dfrac{\sqrt{7}}{2}

Step-by-step solution

In a non-right-angled triangle PQR, let p, q, r denote the lengths of the sides opposite to the angles at P, Q, R By sine rule in PQRPQR psinP=qsinQ=rsinR=2R\dfrac{p}{sinP} = \dfrac{q}{sinQ} = \dfrac{r}{sinR} = 2R 3sinP=1sinQ=1sinR=2\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{sinP} = \dfrac{1}{sinQ} = \dfrac{1}{sinR} = 2\left(1\right)sinP=32sinP = \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2} and sinQ=sinR=12sinQ = sinR = \dfrac{1}{2} P=60°P = {60}^{°} or 120°,Q=30°{120}^{°}, Q = {30}^{°} and 150°{150}^{°} ⇒⇒ As PQRPQR is not a right angle triangle Only possibility is P=120°,Q=R=30°P = {120}^{°}, Q = R = {30}^{°} ⇒PQR⇒ PQR is an isosceles triangle, hence, PEPE is also a median and ‘O’‘O’ will be centroid. ( ∆PQE∆ PQE and ∆PRE∆ PRE are congruent and EE is mid point of QRQR ) ⇒r=q=1,P=3⇒ r = q = 1, P = \sqrt{3} Option (A):\left(A\right): Length of median from RR RS=122p2+2q2−r2=122(3)2+2(1)−1RS = \dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{2{p}^{2} + 2{q}^{2} - {r}^{2}} = \dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{2{\left(\sqrt{3}\right)}^{2} + 2 ( 1 ) - 1} = \dfrac{\sqrt{7}}{2}OptionOption\left(B\right):Now,areaofNow, area of\delta SEF = \dfrac{1}{4}\delta PQR......\left(i\right)andareaofand area of\delta SOE = \dfrac{1}{3}\delta SEF......\left(ii\right)fromfrom\left(i\right)and(ii)and \left(ii\right)\delta SOE = \dfrac{1}{12}\delta PQR......\left(iii\right)δPQR=12pqsinR=12×3×1×12=34\delta PQR = \dfrac{1}{2}pqsinR = \dfrac{1}{2} \times \sqrt{3} \times 1 \times \dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{4} δSOE=112δPQR=348\delta SOE = \dfrac{1}{12}\delta PQR = \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{48} Option (D):\left(D\right): Length of OEOE As OO is centroid OEOE will be 13\dfrac{1}{3} of PEPE PE=122q2+2r2−p2=122+2−3PE = \dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{2{q}^{2} + 2{r}^{2} - {p}^{2}} = \dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{2 + 2 - 3} =12= \dfrac{1}{2} OE=13PE=16OE = \dfrac{1}{3}PE = \dfrac{1}{6} Option (C):\left(C\right): Radius of incircle =ΔS= \dfrac{\Delta}{S}\left(i . e . \dfrac{area}{semi - perimeter}\right)=34(1+1+32)= \dfrac{\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{4}}{\left(\dfrac{1 + 1 + \sqrt{3}}{2}\right)} =32(2+3)= \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2\left(2 + \sqrt{3}\right)}= \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\left(2 - \sqrt{3}\right)
