Area of triangle's incircle is 0.950.95 sq.unit.

Explanation:

/_A = pi/12= 180/12=15^0 , /_B = pi/2=180/2= 90^0 A=π12=18012=150,B=π2=1802=900

:. /_C= 180-(90+15)=75^0 ; A_t=3

We know Area , A_t= 1/2*b*c*sinA or b*c=(2*3)/sin15 ~~23.18.

Similarly a*c=(2*3)/sin90 = 6.0 , and a*b=(2*3)/sin75~~ 6.21

(a*b)*(b*c)*(c.a)=(abc)^2= (6.21*23.18*6.00) ~~863.69

:.abc=sqrt(863.69) ~~29.39 ; a=(abc)/(bc)=29.39/23.18~~1.27

b= (abc)/(ac)=29.39/6.0~~4.90 and

c= (abc)/(ab)=29.39/6.21~~4.73

Semi perimeter : S/2=(1.27+4.90+4.73)/2~~5.45

Incircle radius is r_i= A_t/(S/2) = 3/5.45~~0.55

Incircle Area = A_i= pi* r_i^2= pi*0.55^2 ~~ 0.95 sq.unit

Area of triangle's incircle is 0.95 sq.unit [Ans]
