Let ABC be a right-angled triangle with ∠B = 90◦.Let I be the incentre of ABC. Draw a line perpendicular to AI at I. Let it intersect the line CB at D. Prove that CI is perpendicular to AD and prove that ID =Sqrt(b(b − a)) ,where BC = a and CA = b.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, ∠AID=∠ABD=90°(Given), this means that ADBI is an isosceles quadrilateral.
⇒∠ADI=∠ABI=45°
⇒∠DAI=45°
But, ∠ADB=∠ADI+∠BDI
=45°+∠IAB
=∠IAD+∠CAI
=∠CAD
Therefore, CDA is an isosceles triangle with CD=CA.
Since, we know that CI bisects ∠C, which means that CI is perpendicular to AD.
Now, BC=a and CA=b, therefore DB=AC-BC=b-a and on using the pythagoras theorem in ΔADB,
=
=
But,
⇒
Hence proved.
