Profit = (2/3 * 20%) + (1/3 * 0%) = 40/3% = 13.33%.

AI explanation

In right triangle ABC with AB equal to BC, the angles at vertices A and C are 45 degrees each. The incentre I forms an angle AIC that can be calculated using the formula 90 degrees plus half of angle B. Since angle B is the right angle at 90 degrees, half of angle B is 45 degrees. Adding this to 90 degrees gives an angle AIC measure of 135 degrees.
