Look at the inscribed circle of a triangle. Select the correct step from each box to complete the construction for inscribed circle of a triangle. Step 1:​ (a)   Step 2:​ (b)   ​ Step 3: Construct the bisectors long enough, so that you see their point of intersection. Step 4: ​ (c)   Step 5: Mark the point on the side through which this perpendicular passes. Step 6: Using a compass, draw the circle with the center at the intersection point that passes through the point you obtained in Step 5.​
