Let points A ( a , 0 , 0 ) , B ( 0 , b , 0 ) , C ( 0 , 0 , c ) be vertices of the triangle. Triangle sides are: A B 2 = a 2 + b 2 , A C 2 = a 2 + c 2 , B C 2 = c 2 + b 2 Coordinates of the incentre are calculated using the system of 3 equations as follows: a ∗ B C / ( A B + A C + B C ) = 9 7 9 b ∗ A C / ( A B + A C + B C ) = 2 3 7 9 c ∗ A B / ( A B + A C + B C ) = 2 5 0 0 The equations solution is: a = 2 3 3 2 , b = 6 2 0 1 , c = 1 2 7 2 0 The perimeter can be calculated as 3 3 7 0 8
