Problem Statement

Given triangle ABC ABC with sidelengths a,b,c a,b,c. Tangents to incircle of ABC ABC that parallel with triangle's sides form three small triangle (each small triangle has 1 vertex of ABC ABC). Prove that the sum of area of incircles of these three small triangles and the area of incircle of triangle ABC ABC is equal to \frac{\pi (a^{2}\plus{}b^{2}\plus{}c^{2})(b\plus{}c\minus{}a)(c\plus{}a\minus{}b)(a\plus{}b\minus{}c)}{(a\plus{}b\plus{}c)^{3}} (hmm,, looks familiar, isn't it? :wink: )
