Abstract
The geometry of 2D Minkowski spacetime (or Minkowski plane) is similar but fundamentally different from the more familiar Euclidean plane geometry. This note gives an elementary discussion on some basic properties of a triangle on the Minkowski plane. In particular, we show that the theorem of Feuerbach also holds and a use of the incenter/excenters is pointed out.
