Problem
Circle is the incircle of and is also the circumcircle of . The point is on , the point is on , and the point is on . If , , and , what is the measure of ?
Solution
A diagram will probably help.
Since we are considering the incenter, , and likewise around the triangle. Therefore the three outer triangles are isosceles.
This lets us determine two of the angles at :
Therefore
