Question : The length of each side of an equilateral triangle is $14 \sqrt{3}$ cm. The area of the incircle (in cm2), is:
Option 1: 450
Option 2: 308
Option 3: 154
Option 4: 77
Correct Answer: 154
Solution : Given that the length of each side of an equilateral triangle is $14 \sqrt{3}\ cm$ BD = DC = $7\sqrt3$ cm By Pythagoras theorem, $AD=\sqrt{AB^2-BD^2}$ $= \sqrt{(14\sqrt3)^2-(7\sqrt3)^2}$ = 21 cm Since the radius of the incircle is one-third of the height of the equilateral triangle, OD = radius of incircle = $\frac{1}{3}\times$ 21 = 7 cm So, the area of incircle = $\pi r^2=\frac{22}{7}\times 7^2=154$ cm 2 Hence, the correct answer is 154.
