Extend the symmedians of a triangle DeltaA_1A_2A_3 to meet the circumcircle at P_1, P_2, P_3. Then the symmedian point K of DeltaA_1A_2A_3 is also the symmedian point of ...

An extreme point of a subset K of a vector space X is an extreme set S of K which consists of a single point x in K. The collection of all extreme points of K is sometimes ...

An algorithm originally described by Barnsley in 1988. Pick a point at random inside a regular n-gon. Then draw the next point a fraction r of the distance between it and a ...

The M'Cay cubic Z(X_3) is a self-isogonal cubic given by the locus of all points whose pedal circle touches the nine-point circle, or equivalently, the locus of all points P ...

The perpendicular foot, also called the foot of an altitude, is the point on the leg opposite a given vertex of a triangle at which the perpendicular passing through that ...

The first Yff triangle is the Cevian triangle DeltaA^'B^'C^' of the first Yff point. The area of the first Yff triangle is Delta=(u^3)/(2R), where R is the circumradius of ...

The Longuet-Higgins point is the radical center of the circles centered at the vertices A, B, and C of a reference triangle with respective radii b+c, c+a, and a+b. It has ...

To find the minimum distance between a point in the plane (x_0,y_0) and a quadratic plane curve y=a_0+a_1x+a_2x^2, (1) note that the square of the distance is r^2 = ...

An algebraic curve over a field K is an equation f(X,Y)=0, where f(X,Y) is a polynomial in X and Y with coefficients in K. A nonsingular algebraic curve is an algebraic curve ...

The point of concurrence of the joins of the vertices of a triangle and the points of contact of an inconic of the triangle (Veblen and Young 1938, p. 111; Eddy and Fritsch ...
