Triangle Incircle Calculator

Find the inscribed circle radius, incenter coordinates, area, and semiperimeter of a triangle from its three sides a, b, c.

Input

Enter the three side lengths a, b, and c of a triangle to compute the inscribed circle radius, incenter coordinates, area, and semiperimeter.

Result

r = 1a = 3b = 4c = 5

Inradius r

1

Area

6

Semiperimeter s

6

Incenter

(2, 1)


Length units follow your input. Area is in squared units, and coordinates assume side a lies along the x axis.

How it works

  • The semiperimeter s is half the sum of the sides, s = (a + b + c) / 2.
  • The area is found with Heron formula, area = sqrt(s (s - a)(s - b)(s - c)).
  • The inradius r is the area divided by the semiperimeter, r = area / s.
  • The incenter is the weighted average of the three vertices using the opposite side lengths as weights, and it is the center of the circle tangent to all three sides.
  • For three sides to form a triangle, each must be positive and the sum of any two sides must exceed the remaining side.
