% The three vertices of the triangle
point A 25 70
point B 20 55
point C 45 60

% They define three lines
line a B C
line b A C
line c A B

% The three internal angle bisectors
bis bis_A B A C
bis bis_B A B C
bis bis_C B C A

% The three external angle bisectors
% They are perpendicular to the internal ones

% The incircle.
% Find a point on the incircle
% by going perpendicular from the incenter
% to b (for instance).
