Let $ABC$ be an equilateral triangle with side length $a$. Let $R$ and $r$ denote the radii of the circumcircle and the incircle of triangle $ABC$ respectively. Then,as a function of $a$,the ratio $\frac{R}{r}$

  • A
    strictly increases
  • B
    strictly decreases
  • C
    remains constant
  • D
    strictly increases for $a < 1$ and strictly decreases for $a > 1$
