Lemma: Let (C) be a circle, X,X' two antipodal points on (C), and P a point. The centroid of the triangle PXX' is a fixed point. The loci of the H's, O's, N's...
Dear Antreas The locus of the incenter and the excenters looks like some high degree curve. As for the Lemoine point K, I think the locus is a circle. I name Y...
Dear Antreas! The locus of L is the circle and the locus of I the curve with degree 4. This can be obtained by simple coordinate calculation. It is interesting...

Dear Antreas ... I have corrected a typo in my previous message (I've forgotten a factor 2) PM^2+PN^2 and MN^2 are both constant (PM^2+PN^2 = 2(r^2+OP^2) where...
Looking at http://www.cut-the-knot.org/triangle/index.shtml I was asking myself how to find the vertices of ABC, with straightedge and compass, knowing the...
Dear Hyacinthists, Construct a triangle ABC given 1. (A,a,r_a+r) ok 2. (A,a,r_a-r) Datum ok 3. (A,a,r_b+r_c) Datum ok 4. (A,a,r_b-r_c) ok 5. (B,a,r_a+r) ? 6....
Dear Alexey, Francois, Jean-Pierre Thanks for your responses. In the problem: [APH] ... we got the centroid of PXX' fixed point. How about if, by construction,...
Old Theorem: Let A1B1C1, A2B2C2 be the cevian triangles of two points P1,P2. Denote: A* := P2A2 /\ B1C1 B* := P2B2 /\ C1A1 C* := P2C2 /\ A1B1 The triangles...
Hi everybody once again. 5.(B,a,r_a+r) ... Geometric construction: draw BC with length a and a line c through B forming an angle equal to B/2 with A. Take a...
Dear Eli! The triangle can't be constucted by the ruler and the compass if its three centers are given. Any construction problem which can be made by ruler and...
