ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Hint : circumcenter of an acute triangle

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Hint2 : the incenter of triangle ABC is same as the circumcenter of triangle DEF

OpenStudy (ytrewqmiswi):

the vertices of the triangle DEF lie on the circle so lets assume that the triangle DEF is obtuse any obtuse triangle in a circle wuld be like-|dw:1443180458012:dw|

OpenStudy (ytrewqmiswi):

is this drawing appearing properly ?^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so now i have to prove that the center of the circle is inside DEF... but how?

OpenStudy (ytrewqmiswi):

well we know that the circle is tangent to triangle at D,E,F so the sides AB,BC,CA are tangents to the incircle the lines AB , BC, CA are represented by L1, L2,L3 but we can easily see that they do not form a triangle that keeps the circle in it ..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry... why not?

OpenStudy (ytrewqmiswi):

ok so lets extend the tangents and the point where they meet joing them would give us the triangle - |dw:1443181441216:dw|
