An inscribed circle is tangent to

all 3 sides of the triangle it is inscribed in.

The correct option is the second option

Step-by-step explanation

A circle is inscribed in the triangle if the triangle's three sides are all tangents to a circle. In this situation, the circle is called an inscribed circle, and its center is called the inner center, or incenter.

Since the triangle's three sides are all tangents to the inscribed circle, the distances from the circle's center to the three sides are all equal to the circle's radius
