Question

In a scalene triangle, the incenter lies ____.

  1. Inside
  2. Outside
  3. On the side of triangle
  4. On the vertex of triangle

The correct answer is: Inside


    A scalene triangle is a triangle which has three unequal sides.
    The incenter lies at the equal distances from the three line segments forming the sides of the triangle, and also from the three lines containing those segments.
    So Always, Incenter lies inside the triangle.
