Answer: Option A. -> 0
:
A
Let’s construct the lines and angles which constitute the triangle.
Number Of Triangles Possible For A Given B, C And B(acute An...

We can see once c and B are fixed the least value it should have in order to form a triangle is b = c sin B. In fact, you can form 2 triangles if b > c sin B and B is acute. If B is obtuse by default b > c b > c sin B. Therefore no triangle is possible when b < c sin B irrespective of B being acute or obtuse. Answer is 0 triangles are possible.
Question 12. Relation between Exradius ,semiperimeter and circumradius can be given by
(r1 is the radius of the circle opposite the angle A)
  1.    r1=2Δs−a,r1=4RcosA2sinB2sinC2
  2.    r1=Δs−a,r1=4RsinA2cosB2cosC2
  3.    r1=2Δ(s−a)(s−b),r1=4RcosA2sinB2sinC2
  4.    r1=Δ(s−a)(s−b)(s−c),r1=4RcosA2sinB2sinC2

Answer: Option B. -> r1=Δs−a,r1=4RsinA2cosB2cosC2
:
B
Relation between Exradius and semiperimeter can be given by, r1=Δsa where r1 is the radius of the circle opposite the angle A. and it's helpful to remember the identity r1=4RsinA2cosB2cosC2
Question 13. In a ΔABC,a(b cosC c cos B) is equal to -
  1.    b + c
  2.    b - c
  3.    b2−c2
  4.    b2+c2
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> b2−c2
:
C
We know from cosine rule
cosC=a2+b2C22ab
cosB=a2+c2b22ac
So we'll use these in the given expression.
a{b(a2+b2c22ab)c(a2+c2b22ac)}
a2+b2c2a2c2+b22
=2(b2c2)2
=b2c2
Question 14.  In an equilateral triangle sum of the distances of orthocenter from all the vertices is equal to -
(Where 'R' is the circumradius of triangle)
  1.     R  
  2.     2R
  3.    3R
  4.     4R
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 3R
:
C
Let the triangle be ABC and the orthocenter be O.
We know that OA = 2RcosA
It is given that triangle is equilateral. So cosA = cos (60°) = 12
And OA = R
Similarly, OB = OC = R
And the sum of them = OA + OB + OC = 3R
Question 15. Which of the following holds true in a Right angled triangle?
  1.    r + R = s
  2.    r + 2R = s
  3.    2r + R = s
  4.    r + R = 2s
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> r + 2R = s
:
B
We know, for a Right angled triangle,
R=a2whereA=90Also,r=(sa)tanA2=(sa)tan45=(sa)=s2Rr+2R=s
