where r is the inradius and R is the circumradius of the triangle. Here the sign of the distances is taken to be negative if and only if the open line segment DX (X = F, G, H) lies completely outside the triangle. In the diagram, DF is negative and both DG and DH are positive. The theorem is named after Lazare Carnot (1753–1823).
Fuss' theorem gives a relation between the inradius r, the circumradius R and the distance x between the incenter I and the circumcenter O, for any bicentric quadrilateral. The relation is [1] [11] [22] + (+) =, or equivalently
The radical center of the three mixtilinear incircles is the point which divides in the ratio: : =: where ,,, are the incenter, inradius, circumcenter and circumradius respectively. [ 5 ] References

In geometry, Euler's theorem states that the distance d between the circumcenter and incenter of a triangle is given by [1] [2] = or equivalently + + =, where and denote the circumradius and inradius respectively (the radii of the circumscribed circle and inscribed circle respectively).
By Euler's theorem in geometry, the distance between the circumcenter O and the incenter I is ¯ = (), where r is the incircle radius and R is the circumcircle radius; hence the circumradius is at least twice the inradius (Euler's triangle inequality), with equality only in the equilateral case.
Tangential quadrilateral with inradius r. The four line segments between the center of the incircle and the points where it is tangent to the quadrilateral partition the quadrilateral into four right kites. If a line cuts a tangential quadrilateral into two polygons with equal areas and equal perimeters, then that line passes through the ...
In geometry, the incircle or inscribed circle of a triangle is the largest circle that can be contained in the triangle; it touches (is tangent to) the three sides. The center of the incircle is a triangle center called the triangle's incenter.
