Parry Reflection Point


ParryReflectionPoint

Let L, M, and N be lines through A, B, C, respectively, parallel to the Euler line. Let L^' be the reflection of L in sideline BC, let M^' be the reflection of M in sideline CA, and let N^' be the reflection of N in sideline AB. The lines L^', M^', and N^' then concur in a point known as the Parry reflection point, which is Kimberling center X_(399) and has triangle center function

 alpha_(399)=-8sinBsinCcos^2A+5cosA-4cosBcosC.
