Example: Inradius of right triangle

Given the above right triangle, the inradius is denoted by a dotted red line.

Inradius r can be solved using the following equation:

r = 12\frac{1}{2} (a + b - c)

Furthermore, we know that (a + b - c) must be an even positive integer. Therefore, the inradius must be a positive integer.
