Given that, the  $\triangle ABC$ is an equilateral triangle.

Let the radius of the inscribed circle be $r\;\text{cm},$ and radius of the circumscribed circle be $R\;\text{cm}.$

In $\triangle OBD,\angle OBD = 30^{\circ},\angle ODB = 90^{\circ}$

$\implies \sin 30^{\circ} = \dfrac{r}{R} $

$\implies\dfrac{1}{2}= \dfrac{r}{R}$

$\implies R = 2r$

Let the area of the inscribed circle be $A_{I}\;\text{cm}^{2}$ and the area of the circumscribed circle  be $A_{C}\;\text{cm}^{2}.$

$\implies \dfrac{A_{I}}{A_{C}} = \dfrac{\pi r^{2}}{\pi R^{2}} = \dfrac{r^{2}}{(2r)^{2}} = \dfrac{1}{4}.$

So, the correct answer is $(C).$

Striaght and Simple:

It’s a equilateral Triangle

so,The incentre,circumcentre at the same point , as well as Centroid also.

Let consider the Median length = x

And we know it will be divided into 2:1 ratio

so, Circumradius is 2x/3

and inradius = x/3

Now we got the radius

Bigger circle Area = pi * (2x/3)^2

and Incircle Area = pi* (x/3)^2

Taking the Ration it will be 1:4
