question 4 of 10
the shortest distance from the center of the inscribed circle to the triangles sides is the circles

a. circumference
b. tangent
c. diameter
d. radius

Explanation:

The radius of a circle is the distance from the center of the circle to any point on the circle. For an inscribed circle in a triangle, the points of tangency between the circle and the triangle's sides are on the circle. So the shortest distance from the center of the inscribed circle to the triangle's sides (at the points of tangency) is the circle's radius.

Answer:

D. radius
