Solution

The correct option is B
S1 is true and S2 is false.
By constructing the incircle for any acute-angled triangle, we see that the incentre lies inside the triangle.

By constructing the incircle for any right-angled triangle, we see that the incentre lies inside the triangle.

By constructing the incircle for any obtuse-angled triangle, we see that the incentre lies inside the triangle.

Hence S1 is true and S2 is false.
