Barycentrics sin A csc4(A/4) : sin B csc4(B/4) : sin C csc4(C/4)In 1997, Yff considered the configuration for the 1st Ajima-Malfatti point, X(179). He proved that the same tangencies are possible in another way if the circles are not required to lie inside ABC. With tangency points labeled as before, the lines AA', BB', CC' concur in X(400).
