Identify the properties of the incenter

\[

$$\begin{aligned} &\text{Point } A \text{ is the incenter of } \triangle DEF.\\ &AX \perp DE,\quad AY \perp DF,\quad AZ \perp EF. \end{aligned}$$

\]

Apply the Incenter Theorem

\[

$$\begin{aligned} &ZA = YA = XA\\ &XA = 3\text{ cm} \end{aligned}$$

\]

Calculate the length of ZA

\[
ZA = 3\text{ cm}
\]
