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

Answer: Option B

According to question,

AB + BC = 12 cm
BC + CA = 14 cm
CA + AB = 18 cm
2(AB + BC + CA) = 44 cm
AB + BC + CA = $$\frac{44}{2}$$ cm
AB + BC + CA = 22 cm
Perimeter of triangle = 22 cm
Perimeter of triangle = Perimeter of circle
22 = 2πr
2 × $$\frac{22}{7}$$ × r = 22
r = $$\frac{7}{2}$$ cm
