Steps of construction:
- Draw a line BC of 6 cm.
- At point B draw a right angle.
- Take a distance of 5 cm and cut an arc from the point B. This will give the point
- Join A to C. This is the right angle triangle ABC.
- Draw angle bisector of any two angles say ∠B and ∠C of △ABC and let these intersect at a point say O.
- Taking O as centre and OM as radius, draw a circle.
- The circle touches the other two sides of triangle. This will be the required in circle of the triangle.
