Question:

The incentre of the triangle with vertices $(1, \sqrt{3}), (0,0)$ and $ (2,0) is $

Updated On: Jun 14, 2022
  • $\Big(1, \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\Big)$
  • $\Big(\frac{2}{3} \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\Big)$
  • $\Big(\frac{2}{3} \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\Big)$
  • $\Big(1,\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\Big)$

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Let the vertices of triangle be $A(1, \sqrt{3}), 5(0.0)$ and $C(2,0)$. Here, $AB = BC = CA=2$
Therefore, it is an equilateral triangle. So, the in centre coincides with centroid.
$\therefore \hspace25mm I\equiv \Bigg(\frac{0 + 1 + 2}{3},\frac{0+0+\sqrt{3}}{3}\Bigg)$
$\Rightarrow \hspace25mm I \equiv(1/\sqrt{3})$

Coordinates of a Point in Space

Three-dimensional space is also named 3-space or tri-dimensional space.

It is a geometric setting that carries three values needed to set the position of an element. In Mathematics and Physics, a sequence of ‘n’ numbers can be acknowledged as a location in ‘n-dimensional space’. When n = 3 it is named a three-dimensional Euclidean space.

The Distance Formula Between the Two Points in Three Dimension is as follows;

The distance between two points P1 and P2 are (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) respectively in the XY-plane is expressed by the distance formula,
