The Mandart inellipse of a triangle is the inconic
with inconic parameters
Its center is the mittenpunkt
of the triangle
and its Brianchon point is the Nagel
point
.
The Mandart ellipse touches the sides of the triangle in the vertices of the extouch
triangle, which is also its polar triangle.
It has area
where
is the area of the reference
triangle.
The only point out of the first 2676 Kimberling centers through which it passes is the Feuerbach
point
(Weisstein, Oct. 16, 2004).
The Mandart inellipse is confocal with the billiard circumellipse (Reznik and Garcia
2021, p. 49).
