Correct Answer:
Option C —
42 sq. cm
Step-by-Step Calculation:1. Find the semi-perimeter (s):The perimeter of the triangle is given as 24{ cm}. The semi-perimeter is half of the perimeter
s = {Perimeter}\{2} = {24}\{2} = 12{ cm}
2. Calculate the Area (A):Using the inradius (r = 3.5{ cm}) and the semi-perimeter (s = 12cm)
A = 3.5{ cm} times 12cm
A = 42{ sq. cm}
Final Result:
The area of the triangle is 42sq.cm
