Ans.

(i)

Sol. Let r 1 , r 2 , r 3 be the radii of the escribed circles of the Δ ABC, then r 1 , r 2 , r 3 will be the roots of the equation

x 3 – (r 1 + r 2 + r 3 ) x 2 + (r 1 r 2 + r 2 r 3 + r 3 r 1 ) x –r 1 r 2 r 3 = 0

Now, r 1 + r 2 + r 3 = + +

= + + +

= Δ + Δ +

= + +

= Δ .c +

= Δ . c +

= Δ . c. + = +

= 4R + r … …(i)

Again, r 1 r 2 + r 2 r 3 + r 3 r 1 =

. + . + .

= Δ 2 =

=

= = s 2 …(ii)

Finally, r 1 r 2 r 3 = =

=

= Δ s = (rs) s = rs 2 …(iii)

Thus the required equation using Δ and (i), (ii) and (iii)

is x 3 – (4R + r)x 2 + s 2 x – rs 2 = 0

(ii)

x 3 – (r 1 + r 2 + r 3 ) x 2 + (r 1 r 2 + r 2 r 3 + r 3 r 1 ) x –r 1 r 2 r 3 = 0

Now, r 1 + r 2 + r 3 = + +

= + + +

= Δ 2 =

= = = s 2 …(ii)

Finally, r 1 r 2 r 3 =

= =

= Δ s = (rs) s = rs 2 …(iii)

Thus the required equation using Δ and (i), (ii) and (iii)

is x 3 – (4R + r)x 2 + s 2 x – rs 2 = 0

(iii)

x 3 – (r 1 + r 2 + r 3 ) x 2 + (r 1 r 2 + r 2 r 3 + r 3 r 1 ) x –r 1 r 2 r 3 = 0

Again, r 1 r 2 + r 2 r 3 + r 3 r 1 = . + . + . = Δ 2 =

Finally, r 1 r 2 r 3 =

Thus the required equation using Δ and (i), (ii) and (iii)

is x 3 – (4R + r)x 2 + s 2 x – rs 2 = 0
