How do you find the inradius of a triangle?

Back

The inradius can be found using the formula r = A/s, where A is the area and s is the semi-perimeter.

Front

What is the relationship between the circumradius and the sides of a triangle?

Back

The circumradius R can be calculated using the formula R = abc/4A, where a, b, c are the sides and A is the area.
