Please construct the incenter of the triangle, confirm that it is equidistant to all the sides, and construct the inscribed circle.
Follow the instructions below to construct the incenter.
1. Construct an angle bisector at each interior angle of the triangle
2. Mark the intersection (point of concurrency) - this point is called in the Incenter
3. Construct a perpendular line from incenter to one of the sides and mark the intersection point.
4. Measure the distance from the incenter to each side. What do you notice?
5. Draw a circle with center at the Incenter that touches each side points.
