Let us make
a the radius of the largest circle
centre
A etc.
Then the lengths of the sides of the triangle are:
AB =
a - b,
AC =
a - c and
BC =
b +
c.
The perimeter of the triangle is:
|
AB + BC + CA = (a - b) + (a - c) + (b + c) = 2a. |
|
So the perimeter of the triangle is twice the
radius of the large circle
whatever the sizes of the small circles.
