JEE Main 2024 (Online) 6th April Morning Shift Mathematics - Circle Question 7 English Explanation

Inradius of △ABC=r=Δs=34×(12)218\triangle A B C=r=\frac{\Delta}{s}=\frac{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4} \times(12)^2}{18}

r=23r=2 \sqrt{3}

Side length of square is aa , then a2=2r2a^2=2 r^2

⇒a2=24\Rightarrow a^2=24

Area of square, m=24m=24

Perimeter of square, n=424n=4 \sqrt{24}

amp;⇒m+n2=24+384amp;=408\begin{aligned}& \Rightarrow m+n^2=24+384 \\& =408\end{aligned}
