Olympic triangle be perfectly sharp, either, since it is a course. Traditionally the configuration of the triangle is an equilateral triangle (3 equal sides and 3 equal angles of 60 degrees) with a ratio of the windward leg to a reaching leg being 1:1. In that case the course length for the 9 legs described above is 9 times the length of the windward leg. The angle at each point of the triangle is 60 degrees. The windward leg is generally aligned with the average wind direction. Another configuration is a triangle with a right angle at the wing mark and 45
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
