In the plane, the reflection property can be stated as three theorems (Ogilvy 1990, pp. 73-77): 1. The locus of the center of a variable circle, tangent to a fixed circle and ...

Let DeltaABC be a triangle and D a point on the side BC. Let I be the incenter, P the center of the circle tangent to the circumcircle and segments AD and BD, Q the center of ...

A (finite, circular) conical surface is a ruled surface created by fixing one end of a line segment at a point (known as the vertex or apex of the cone) and sweeping the ...

The Gergonne point Ge is the perspector of a triangle DeltaABC and its contact triangle DeltaT_AT_BT_C. It has equivalent triangle center functions alpha = [a(b+c-a)]^(-1) ...

As defined by Gray (1997, p. 201), Viviani's curve, sometimes also called Viviani's window, is the space curve giving the intersection of the cylinder of radius a and center ...

The dual of a regular tessellation is formed by taking the center of each polygon as a vertex and joining the centers of adjacent polygons. The triangular and hexagonal ...

Fisheye perspective is a two-part projection. First, three-dimensional space is projected onto the surface of a hemisphere, by connecting every external point to the center ...

The pedal curve of a rectangular hyperbola with the pedal point at the focus is a circle (left figure; Hilbert and Cohn-Vossen 1999, p. 26). The pedal curve of a rectangular ...

A triangle line is a line with trilinear equation lalpha+mbeta+ngamma=0 defined relative to a reference triangle. A triangle line is called a central line iff l:m:n is a ...

The inner Napoleon circle, a term coined here for the first time, is the circumcircle of the inner Napoleon triangle. It has center at the triangle centroid G (and is thus ...
