The correct Answer is:
To find the incenter of triangle ABC with given sides and coordinates, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the coordinates of points B and C Given: - A(0,0) - AB = 3, so B(3,0) - AC = 4, so C(0,4) ### Step 2: Confirm the coordinates of point D Point D is given as (12/7, 12/7). This point lies on the internal angle bisector of angle A. ### Step 3: Use the formula for the incenter The incenter (I) of triangle ABC can be calculated using the formula: \[ I_x = \frac{aX_A + bX_B + cX_C}{a + b + c} \] \[ I_y = \frac{aY_A + bY_B + cY_C}{a + b + c} \] where: - \(a = BC\) - \(b = AC\) - \(c = AB\) - \(X_A, Y_A\) are the coordinates of point A - \(X_B, Y_B\) are the coordinates of point B - \(X_C, Y_C\) are the coordinates of point C ### Step 4: Substitute the values into the formula From the problem: - \(a = BC = 5\) - \(b = AC = 4\) - \(c = AB = 3\) Coordinates: - \(X_A = 0, Y_A = 0\) - \(X_B = 3, Y_B = 0\) - \(X_C = 0, Y_C = 4\) Now substitute these values into the formula for \(I_x\) and \(I_y\): \[ I_x = \frac{5 \cdot 0 + 4 \cdot 3 + 3 \cdot 0}{5 + 4 + 3} = \frac{12}{12} = 1 \] \[ I_y = \frac{5 \cdot 0 + 4 \cdot 0 + 3 \cdot 4}{5 + 4 + 3} = \frac{12}{12} = 1 \] ### Step 5: Conclusion Thus, the coordinates of the incenter \(I\) of triangle ABC is: \[ I(1, 1) \]

To find the incenter of triangle ABC with given sides and coordinates, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the coordinates of points B and C Given: - A(0,0) - AB = 3, so B(3,0) - AC = 4, so C(0,4) ...
