Brocard Midpoint


BrocardMidpoint

The midpoint of the first and second Brocard points Omega and Omega^'. It has equivalent triangle center functions

alpha=a(b^2+c^2)
(1)
alpha=sin(A+omega),
(2)

where omega is the Brocard angle. It is Kimberling center X_(39) (Kimberling 1998, p. 73).

The Brocard midpoint lies on the Brocard axis and is the center of the Gallatly, half-Moses, and Moses circles.
