Question

The diagram shows some steps in the construction of the inscribed circle of ABC. Which diagram shows the next step in the construction?

Answer 1

The answer would be A hope I could help

Answer 2

Answer:

Option A is correct.

Steps-by-step explanation:

Given the diagrams of construction of the inscribed circle of ABC. we have to select the diagram which shows the next step in the construction.

Steps of construction are:

Step 1: Bisect one of the angles  of triangle ABC.

Step 2: Bisect another angle as a result we get the incenter which is the point of intersection of these two bisectors.

Step 3: Draw a perpendicular from incenter to one side of the triangle.

Step 4: Place needle on the incenter adjust its length to where the perpendicular crosses the side of triangle, and draw inscribed circle.

Here, in first figure two angle bisectors i.e step 1 and 2 are done. we have to select the next in which perpendicular from incenter to one side of the triangle  is drawn.

Option A shows step 3 i.e in this figure perpendicular from incenter to one side of the triangle  is drawn. Hence, option A is the next step in the construction.
