In triangle ABC the angle bisectors are AD BE  and CF, which intersect at the incenter I. If Angle ACB = 38 degrees then find the measure of AIE in degrees.

 

I am stuck on this problem and I don't know what to do.

What is an angle bisector?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Let angle BAC be 90 degrees

 

∠IAE = 45º

 

∠AEI = 90 - 1/2(∠ABC) = 64º

 

∠AIE = 180 - (∠IAE + ∠AEI) = 71º

 

Shortcut:::

 

∠AIE = 90 - 1/2(∠ACB) smiley

Where did you get 90 for BAC?
