(Ahmed Faiz) Find The Radius of The A-Mixtilinear Circle in Terms of AB, AC and Angle A
Lemma
The points of contact of the A-mixtilinear incircle with the sides AB and AC are found by intersecting these
sides with the line through the incenter I perpendicular to the angle bisector AI.
Solution
circle (O,ρ’) tangent to AB, AC at D,E respectively and also tangent to arc BC
I incircle of ∆ ABC, circle (I, ρ) tangent to AB, AC at C’,B’ respectively and also tangent to BC
