Answer to Problem 3MRE
The number of point of intersection for a triangle circumscribed about a circle is 3
Explanation of Solution
Side of triangle will act as tangent of any circle inside triangle. Tangent of circle as side will have one point of tangency. Thus, all three sides of triangle must have tree point of tangency.
Hence, the number of point of intersection for a triangle circumscribed about a circle is 3 as shown below:
Here, D, E and F are the point of intersections.
