Given a right triangle ABC, with the ninety degree angle at A; consider the triangle O1OO2.Where the point O is the midpoint of the hypotenuseBC(and so the center of the triangle ABC's circumcircle), the point O1 being the triangle AOB's…
We consider loci of points such that their sum of distances or sum of squared distances to each of the sides of a given triangle is constant. These loci are inspired by Viviani's theorem and its extension. The former locus is a line segment…
Deltoid curves appear as consequences of certain procedures in triangle geometry. The best known of these is the construction based on Simson lines, described by Steiner. This is carefully related, in this article, to a less known…
The projective line over a field carries structure of a groupoid with a certain correspondence between objects and arrows. We discuss to what extent the field can be reconstructed from the groupoid.
The geometry on a slope of a mountain is the geometry of a Finsler metric, called here the {\it slope metric}. We study the existence of globally defined slope metrics on surfaces of revolution as well as the geodesic's behavior. A…
We study the influence of geometry on semilinear elliptic equations of bistable or nonlinear-field type in unbounded domains. We discover a surprising dichotomy between epigraphs that are bounded from below and those that contain a cone of…
In this work, we define a triangle area number to be the area number of a triangle whose sides have integer lengths, and whose area is a rational number. In Result 3, on page 17, we prove that every triangle area number is in fact an…
Base on a conjecture, we prove that for any smooth separated stack of finite type over a number field, its descent obstruction equals its iterated descent obstruction. As a consequence, we show that for any algebraic stack over a number…
The Longest Edge Bisection of a triangle is performed by joining the midpoint of its longest edge to the opposite vertex. Applying this procedure iteratively produces an infinite family of triangles. Surprisingly, a classical result of…
A concept of a rectangular diagram of a foliation in the three-sphere is introduced. It is shown that any co-orientable finite depth foliation in the complement of a link admits a presentation by a rectangular diagram compatible with the…
In this paper the problem of finding a normal form of triangles and plane quadrilaterals up to similarity is considered. Several normal forms for triangles and a normal form for quadrilaterals of special case are described. Normal forms of…
The incircle of a triangle touches the sides of the triangle in three points. It is well known that the lines from these points to the opposite vertices meet at a point known as the Gergonne point of the triangle. We use a computer to…
Three particles floating on a fluid surface define a triangle. The aim of this paper is to characterise the shape of the triangle, defined by two of its angles, as the three vertices are subject to a complex or turbulent motion. We consider…
A high-level description of an algorithm which computes the minimum perimeter triangle enclosing a convex polygon in linear time exists in the literature. Besides that an implementation of the algorithm is given in the subsequent work.…
While there is extensive literature on approximation of convex bodies by inscribed or circumscribed polytopes, much less is known in the case of generally positioned polytopes. Here we give upper and lower bounds for approximation of convex…
The `linear orbit' of a plane curve of degree $d$ is its orbit in $\P^{d(d+3)/2}$ under the natural action of $\PGL(3)$. In this paper we obtain an algorithm computing the degree of the closure of the linear orbit of an arbitrary plane…
We consider the direction set determined by various subsets $E$ of Euclidean space and show that there is a trichotomy: Either (i) The subset is the graph of a Lipschitz function and the direction set is not dense in the sphere, (ii) The…
This article proves a Pythagoras-type formula for the sides and diagonals of a polygon inscribed in a semicircle having one of the sides of the polygon as diameter.
Intersection algorithms are very important in computation of geometrical problems. Algorithms for a line intersection with linear or quadratic surfaces are quite efficient. However, algorithms for a line intersection with other surfaces are…
