A circle is inscribed within a right triangle. Considering that the lengths of the two legs measure 6 cm and 8 cm, what is the radius of the inscribed circle?
Correct Answer
2 cm
Hypotenuse = √(6²+8²) = 10. Radius = (Base + Perpendicular - Hypotenuse) / 2 = (6 + 8 - 10) / 2 = 2 cm.[span_74](start_span)[span_74](end_span)...
