Let three isoscelizers ,
, and
be constructed on a triangle
, one for each side. This makes
all of the inner triangles similar to each other. However,
there is a unique set of three isoscelizers for which the four interior triangles
,
,
,
and
are congruent. The innermost triangle
is called the Yff central triangle (Kimberling
1998, pp. 94-95).
It has trilinear vertex matrix
where ,
,
and
(Kimberling 1998, p. 172; typo corrected).
The original triangle is the extangents
triangle of the Yff central triangle
.
The circumcircle of the Yff central circle is the Yff central circle.
The following table gives the centers of the Yff central triangle in terms of the centers of the reference triangle for Kimberling
centers
