Let the centroid of an equilateral triangle A B C be at the origin. Let one of the sides of the equilateral triangle be along the straight line x + y = 3 . If R and r be the radius of circumcircle and incircle respectively of Δ A B C , then ( R + r ) is equal to :
Options
- A9 2
- B7 2
- C2 2
- D3 2
Correct answer
A. 9 2
Step-by-step solution
Distance from origin to line x + y = 3 is inradius. r = O M = 3 2 &   sin 30 ° = 1 2 = r R ⇒ R = 6 2 ∴ r + R = 9 2
