If the bisectors of the acute angles of a right triangle meet at O, then the angle at O between the two bisectors is
Let ABC is an acute angled triangle.
∠B = 90o
We know that,
∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180o
∠A + 90o + ∠C = 180o
∠A + ∠C = 90o (i)
In
∠AOC + ∠ACD + ∠CAD = 180o
∠AOC + ∠C +
∠A = 180o
∠AOC + (∠A + ∠C) = 180o
∠AOC + * 90o = 180o [From (i)]
∠AOC + 45o = 180o
∠AOC = 180o – 45o
= 135o
Thus, the angle at O between two bisectors is equal to 135o.
