Given the length of sides of an equilateral triangle, the task is to find the area and perimeter of Incircle of the given equilateral triangle. Examples:

Input: side = 6 
Output: Area = 9.4. Perimeter = 10.88

Input: side = 9
Output: Area = 21.21, Perimeter = 16.32

Properties of an Incircle are:

  • The center of the Incircle is same as the center of the triangle i.e. the point where the medians of the equilateral triangle intersect.
  • Inscribed circle of an equilateral triangle is made through the midpoint of the edges of an equilateral triangle.
  • The Inradius of an Incircle of an equilateral triangle can be calculated using the formula:
 a / (\sqrt3 * 2),
  • where a     is the length of the side of equilateral triangle.
  • Below image shows an equilateral triangle with incircle:
 
  • Approach: Area of circle = \pi*r^2     and perimeter of circle = 2 * \pi * r     , where r is the radius of given circle. Also the radius of Incircle of an equilateral triangle = (side of the equilateral triangle)/ 3. Therefore,
    1. The formula used to calculate the area of Incircle using Inradius is:
\pi r^2  =>  ( \pi * a^2 ) / (3 * 2 )
  1. The formula used to calculate the perimeter of Incircle using Inradius is:
2 * \pi * r  =>  2 * \pi * (a/\sqrt3*2)
