Special right triangle are in the ratio 1 : 2 : 3 and respectively measure 30° (), 60° (), and 90° (). The sides are in the ratio 1 : : 2. The proof of this fact is clear using trigonometry. The geometric proof is: The 30°–60°–90° triangle is the only right triangle whose angles are in an arithmetic progression. The proof of this fact is simple and follows on from the fact that if "α", , are the angles in the progression then the sum of the angles = 180°. After dividing by 3, the angle must be 60°. The right angle
Incircle and excircles of a triangle Because the Incenter is the same distance of all sides the trilinear coordinates for the incenter are The barycentric coordinates for a point in a triangle give weights such that the point is the weighted average of the triangle vertex positions. Barycentric coordinates for the incenter are given by where formula_7, formula_8, and formula_9 are the lengths of the sides of the triangle, or equivalently (using the law of sines) by where formula_11, formula_12, and formula_13 are the angles at the three vertices. The Cartesian coordinates of the incenter are a weighted average of the coordinates of the three vertices
