The author proves the Theorem: Let \(r\) denote the inradius of an \(n\)-dimensional simplex \(A\) in the \(n\)-dimensional Euclidean space \(E^n\), \(P\) be an arbitrary point inside the simplex \(A\), and \(d_i\) denote the distance from the point \(P\) to the hyperplane of the \(i\)-th face of \(A\) (which is spanned by \(n\) of the \(n+1\) vertices \(A_1, \dots, A_{n+1}\) of \(A\), omitting \(A_i)\), \(i=1,2, \dots, n+1\). Then, when \(\alpha\geq 1\), the following negative exponent geometric inequality holds: \[ \sum^{n+1}_{i=1} {1\over d_i^\alpha} \geq{n+1 \over r^\alpha}; \] equality holds iff \(P\) is the incentre of \(A\).
