Question
A circle is circumscribed around a triangle whose sides are 8 units, 15 units, and 17 units. Find the radius of the circle.
Hence Triangle ABC is a right-angled triangle. Therefore, a triangle that is inside a circle is right-angled, then the hypotenuse is the diameter of the circle. Hence the radius of the circle CO = OA = AC (diameter) = 17/2 radius = 8.5 unitsMore Mensuration Questions
