AHSME 1974 Problem 16

    A circle of radius rr is inscribed in a right isosceles triangle, and a circle of radius RR is circumscribed about the triangle. Then R/rR/r equals (A) 1+2(B) 2+22(C) 2−12(D) 1+22(E) 2(2−2)\mathrm{(A)\ } 1+\sqrt{2} \mathrm{(B) \ }\frac{2+\sqrt{2}}{2} \mathrm{(C) \ } \frac{\sqrt{2}-1}{2} \mathrm{(D) \ } \frac{1+\sqrt{2}}{2} \mathrm{(E) \ }2(2-\sqrt{2})
