-
Given data
In triangle , and area
Also, is obtuse.
We need to find , where is the inradius.
-
Use area formula with two sides and included angle
Since sides adjacent to angle are and , the area is
Substitute the values:
-
Determine angle
Since , possible angles are
Given that is obtuse, we take
-
Find side using the cosine rule
Since we get
-
Find semiperimeter
-
Use the area formula
-
Compute
Therefore, the required value is
