It is also the center of the circumcircle, the circle that passes through all three vertices of the triangle.]]> 2017-01-31 15:03:35 UTC https://padlet.com/gtquinn21/v6je2pfscmk6/wish/150547913 gtquinn21 https://padlet.com/gtquinn21/v6je2pfscmk6/wish/150548699 http://www.mathopenref.com/trianglecircumcenter.html]]> 2017-01-31 15:05:26 UTC https://padlet.com/gtquinn21/v6je2pfscmk6/wish/150548699 gtquinn21 https://padlet.com/gtquinn21/v6je2pfscmk6/wish/150548955
Properties of the incenter
Center of the incircle | The incenter is the center of the triangle's incircle, the largest circle that will fit inside the triangle and touch all three sides. See Incircle of a Triangle.
Always inside the triangle | The triangle's incenter is always inside the triangle. Adjust the triangle above by dragging any vertex and see that it will never go outside the triangle

Finding the incenter of a triangle

It is possible to find the incenter of a triangle using a compass and straightedge. 
See Constructing the the incenter of a triangle.


Coordinate geometry

If you know the coordinates of the triangle's vertices, you can calculate the coordinates of the incenter. See Coordinates of incenter.


Summary of triangle centers
There are many types of triangle centers. Below are four of the most common.Incenter |
