Answer
The circumcenter of a triangle is defined as the point where the perpendicular bisectors of the sides intersect. It is equidistant from the three vertices (D, E, and F) of the triangle.
∴ Statement 1 is true.
The incenter of a triangle is defined as the point of concurrency of the three angle bisectors of the triangle. This point is also the center of the inscribed circle and is equidistant from the three sides of the triangle.
∴ Statement 2 is true.
∴ Both statements are true.
Hence, option 1 is the correct option.
