We give a complete investigation of Morley's trisector theorem. If the intersections of the half lines starting from the adjacent vertices of a triangle form an equilateral triangle for an arbitrary triangle, then the half lines are the…
In this paper, a theorem about similar triangles is proved. It shows that two small and four large triangles similar to the original triangle can appear if we choose well among several intersections of the perpendicular bisectors of the…
Three circles define each of the Brocard points of a triangle. If one adds the three circles through a pair of vertices and the orthocentre one has nine circles. It is described how each of the nine centres of these circles lies at the…
The diagonals of a quadrilateral form four associated triangles, called half triangles. Each half triangle is bounded by two sides of the quadrilateral and one diagonal. If we locate a triangle center (such as the incenter, centroid,…
Given a noncyclic quadrilateral, we consider an iterative procedure producing a new quadrilateral at each step. At each iteration, the vertices of the new quadrilateral are the circumcenters of the triad circles of the previous generation…
We suggest a method of solving the problem of existence of a triangle with prescribed two bisectors and one third element which can be taken as one of the angles, the sides, the heights or the medians, or the third bisector.
Starting with any nondegenerate triangle we can use a well defined interior point of the triangle to subdivide it into six smaller triangles. We can repeat this process with each new triangle, and continue doing so over and over. We show…
Let P be a point inside a convex quadrilateral ABCD. The lines from P to the vertices of the quadrilateral divide the quadrilateral into four triangles. If we locate a triangle center in each of these triangles, the four triangle centers…
Any four mutually tangent spheres in R^3 determine three coincident lines through opposite pairs of tangencies. As a consequence, we define two new triangle centers.
The paper is devoted to the description of family of scalene triangles for which the triangle formed by the intersection points of bisectors with opposite sides is isosceles. We call them Sharygin triangles. It turns out that they are…
The "Perpendicular Bisectors Construction" is a natural way to seek a replacement for the circumcenter of a noncyclic quadrilateral in the plane. In this paper, we generalize this iterative construction to a construction on polytopes with…
We characterize quasiconformal mappings in terms of the distortion of the vertices of equilateral triangles.
We study equivalence relation of the set of triangles generated by similarity and operation on a triangle to get a new one by joining division points of three edges with the same ratio. Using the moduli space of similarity classes of…
Two triangles are called orthologic if the perpendiculars from the vertices of one of them to the sides of the other are concurrent. In this paper, we explore the concept of orthology from various points of view. Mostly we work in terms of…
An elementary geometric construction known as Napoleon's theorem produces an equilateral triangle built on the sides of any initial triangle: the centroids of each equilateral triangle meeting the original sides, all outward or all inward,…
The diagonals of a quadrilateral form four component triangles (in two ways). For each of various shaped quadrilaterals, we examine 1000 triangle centers located in these four component triangles. Using a computer, we determine when the…
We show upper and lower bounds for angles in iterations of trisections of certain triangulations.
The {\it largest angle bisection} procedure is the operation which partitions a given triangle, $T$, into two smaller triangles by constructing the angle bisector of the largest angle of $T$. Applying the procedure to each of these two…
We present a criterion when six points chosen on the sides of a triangle belong to the same conic. Using this tool we show how the two geometrical gems - celebrated Poncelet's theorem of projective geometry and incredible Morley's theorem…
We study side-lengths of triangles in path metric spaces. We prove that unless such a space X is bounded, or quasi-isometric to line or half-line, every triple of real numbers satisfying the strict triangle inequalities, is realized by the…
