Text Solution

The correct Answer is:
To find the ratio of \( IA : IB : IC \) where \( I \) is the incenter of triangle \( ABC \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Incenter The incenter \( I \) of triangle \( ABC \) is the point where the angle bisectors of the triangle intersect. It is also the center of the inscribed circle (incircle). ### Step 2: Use the Angle Bisector Theorem The lengths from the incenter to the vertices of the triangle can be expressed in terms of the angles of the triangle. Specifically, we have: - \( IA = \frac{R}{\sin \frac{A}{2}} \) - \( IB = \frac{R}{\sin \frac{B}{2}} \) - \( IC = \frac{R}{\sin \frac{C}{2}} \) where \( R \) is the radius of the incircle. ### Step 3: Write the Ratios Now we can write the ratios of \( IA, IB, \) and \( IC \): \[ IA : IB : IC = \frac{R}{\sin \frac{A}{2}} : \frac{R}{\sin \frac{B}{2}} : \frac{R}{\sin \frac{C}{2}} \] ### Step 4: Simplify the Ratios Since \( R \) is common in all three terms, we can cancel it out: \[ IA : IB : IC = \frac{1}{\sin \frac{A}{2}} : \frac{1}{\sin \frac{B}{2}} : \frac{1}{\sin \frac{C}{2}} \] ### Step 5: Convert to Cosecant This can be rewritten using cosecant: \[ IA : IB : IC = \csc \frac{A}{2} : \csc \frac{B}{2} : \csc \frac{C}{2} \] ### Final Answer Thus, the ratio \( IA : IB : IC \) is: \[ \csc \frac{A}{2} : \csc \frac{B}{2} : \csc \frac{C}{2} \] ---
