A simple google on triangle incenter (or a quick review in your text) should make this easy to answer.
What did you find? (Hint: (c) is false)
Which of the following statements are true?
a. the incenter of a triangle is equidistant from all three vertices of that triangle
b. The incenter of a triangle always lies inside that triangle
c. the incenter of a triangle is the point of concurrency of the perpendicular bisectors of that triangle
d. the incenter of a triangle is the point of concurrency of the altitudes of that triangle.

Is it B? The incenter of a triangle always lies inside that triangle?
"The incenter is the last triangle center we will be investigating. It is the point forming the origin of a circle inscribed inside the triangle. Like the centroid, the incenter is always inside the triangle. It is constructed by taking the intersection of the angle bisectors of the three vertices of the triangle."
