Prove that in any triangle ABC:
(i)
(ii)
Proof: (i) Let I be the incentre and D, E, F be the points of contact of the incircle with the sides.
Join ID, IE, IF such that
ID BC, IE CA and IF AB
Now, 2s - 2a = AB + CA - BC
= (AF + FB) + (CE + EA) - (BD + DC)
= (AF + BD) + (CD + AF) - (BD + DC)
[∵ AE = AF, BF = BD and CD = CE]
= 2AF
AF = s - a ...(i)
Now, from right angle triangle AFI,
or [By using (i)]
Similarly, we can show other two results.
(ii) Now, [From figure]
or
Similarly, we can show other two results.
