Incenter
The center 
of a Triangle's Incircle. It can be found as the intersection of AngleBisectors, and it is the interior point for which distances to the sidelines are equal. ItsTrilinear Coordinates are 1:1:1. The distance between the incenter and Circumcenter is 
.
The incenter lies on the Euler Line only for an Isosceles Triangle. It does, however, lie on theSoddy Line. For an Equilateral Triangle, the Circumcenter 
, Centroid 
,Nine-Point Center 
, Orthocenter 
, and de Longchamps Point 
all coincide with .
The incenter and Excenters of a Triangle are an Orthocentric System. The Power of the incenter with respect to the Circumcircle is
(Johnson 1929, p. 190). If the incenters of the Triangles
, 
, and
are 
, 
, and 
, then 
is equal and parallel to 
, where 
are theFeet of the Altitudes and 
are the incenters of the Triangles. Furthermore, , , , are the reflections of with respect to the sides of the Triangle 
(Johnson 1929, p. 193).If four points are on a Circle (i.e., they are Concyclic), the incenters of the four Trianglesform a Rectangle whose sides are parallel to the lines connecting the middle points of opposite arcs. Furthermore, theconnectors pass through the center of the Rectangle (Fuhrmann 1890, p. 50; Johnson 1929, pp. 254-255). More generally,the 16 incenters and excenters of the Triangles whose Vertices are four points ona Circle, are the intersections of two sets of four Parallel lines which are mutually Perpendicular (Johnson1929, p. 255).
