I need help with Incenter,Circumcenter and orthocenter

I find these particular things for triangle really lengthy to calculate.Any shortcuts will be greatly appreciated.This is when the equations of the three lines alone are given for the triangle.

The usual method was for incenter to 1)find the points of intersection
                                                      2)find the lengths of the lines(Distance Between the points)
                                                      3)use the formula

I would like to know smaller and better methods

Give us a link to read on what these things are or tell us perhaps.
