 Here , ∠B = 70° and ∠C = 50°∠IBC = 70° = 35° ; 2 ∠ICB = 50° = 25° ; 2 
 Correct Option: CFirstly , We draw a figure of triangle ABC whose I is incentre ,  
 Here , ∠B = 70° and ∠C = 50°∠IBC = 70° = 35° ; 2 ∠ICB = 50° = 25° ; 2 
 We know that , ∠BIC + ∠ICB + ∠IBC = 180°
 ∴ ∠BIC = 180° – 35° – 25°
 ∠BIC = 180° – 60° = 120°
-  In a triangle ABC, AB + BC = 12 cm, BC + CA = 14 cm and CA + AB = 18 cm. Find the radius of the circle (in cm) which has the same perimeter as the triangle.

                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum Given that , AB + BC = 12 
 BC + CA = 14
 CA + AB = 18
 On adding , we get
 ∴ 2(AB + BC + CA) = 12 + 14 + 18 = 44
 ⇒ AB + BC + CA = 22
 ∴ 2πr = 22⇒ 2 × 22 × r = 22 7 
 Correct Option: BGiven that , AB + BC = 12 
 BC + CA = 14
 CA + AB = 18
 On adding , we get
 ∴ 2(AB + BC + CA) = 12 + 14 + 18 = 44
 ⇒ AB + BC + CA = 22
 ∴ 2πr = 22⇒ 2 × 22 × r = 22 7 ⇒ r = 7 cm 2

 ∠ABC = 60°, ACB = 50°∠IBC = 1 ∠ABC = 30° 2 ∠ICB = 1 ∠ACB = 25° 2 
 Correct Option: BOn the basis of given in question , we draw a figure triangle ABC ,  
 ∠ABC = 60°, ACB = 50°∠IBC = 1 ∠ABC = 30° 2 ∠ICB = 1 ∠ACB = 25° 2 
 We know that , ∠BIC + ∠ICB + ∠IBC = 180°
 ∴ ∠BIC = 180° – 30° – 25° = 125°
-  In an isosceles triangle, if the unequal angle is twice the sum of the equal angles, then each equal angle is

                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum We draw a figure of an isosceles triangle ABC ,  
 Given that , ∠ B = ∠ C
 ∴ ∠ A = 2(∠ B + ∠ C)
 ⇒ ∠ A = 4∠ C
 we know that , ∠ A + ∠ B + ∠ C = 180°
 ∴ 4∠ C + ∠ C + ∠ C = 180°Correct Option: CWe draw a figure of an isosceles triangle ABC ,  
 Given that , ∠ B = ∠ C
 ∴ ∠ A = 2(∠ B + ∠ C)
 ⇒ ∠ A = 4∠ C
 we know that , ∠ A + ∠ B + ∠ C = 180°
 ∴ 4∠ C + ∠ C + ∠ C = 180°
 ⇒ 6∠ C = 180°
 ⇒ ∠ C = 30°
