Constructing an Inscribed Circle on a Triangle Using Angle Bisectors

This lesson teaches how to construct an inscribed circle within a triangle using angle bisectors. It explains the concept of angle bisectors, triangle centers, and the Euler line. The inscribed circle is defined as the largest circle within a triangle, tangent to its sides. The construction process involves drawing a triangle, finding angle bisectors, and using them to locate the circle's center. The radius is determined by drawing a perpendicular from the center to a triangle side. The lesson concludes with using a compass to draw the inscribed circle.
