Conic Solution of Euler’s Triangle Determination Problem
نویسنده
چکیده
We study Euler’s problem of determination of a triangle from its circumcenter, orthocenter, and incenter as a problem of geometric construction. While it cannot be solved using ruler and compass, we construct the vertices by intersecting a circle with a rectangular hyperbola, both easily constructed from the given triangle centers.

Euler’s Triangle Determination Problem
We give a simple proof of Euler’s remarkable theorem that for a nondegenerate triangle, the set of points eligible to be the incenter is precisely the orthocentroidal disc, punctured at the nine-point center. The problem is handled algebraically with complex coordinates. In particular, we show how the vertices of the triangle may be determined from the roots of a complex cubic whose coefficient...
متن کاملConic Construction of a Triangle from the Feet of Its Angle Bisectors
We study an extension of the problem of construction of a triangle from the feet of its internal angle bisectors. Given a triangle ABC, we give a conic construction of points P which are the incenter or excenters of their own anticevian triangles with respect to ABC. If the given triangle contains a right angle, a very simple ruler-and-compass construction is possible. We also examine the case ...
متن کاملSchwarz boundary problem on a triangle
In this paper, the Schwarz boundary value problem (BVP) for the inhomogeneous Cauchy-Riemann equation in a triangle is investigated explicitly. Firstly, by the technique of parquetingreflection and the Cauchy-Pompeiu representation formula a modified Cauchy-Schwarz representation formula is obtained. Then, the solution of the Schwarz BVP is explicitly solved. In particular, the boundary behavio...
متن کاملMulti-objective Solution Approaches for Employee Shift Scheduling Problems in Service Sectors (RESEARCH NOTE)
Today, workforce scheduling programs are being implemented in many production and service centers. These sectors can provide better quality products and/or services to their customers, taking into account employees’ desires and preferences in order to increase sector productivity. In this study, an employee shift scheduling problem in the service sector is discussed. In the problem, the aim is ...
متن کاملConic Construction of a Triangle From Its Incenter, Nine-point Center, and a Vertex
We construct a triangle given its incenter, nine-point center and a vertex by locating the circumcenter as an intersection of two rectangular hyperbolas. Some special configurations leading to solutions constructible with ruler and compass are studied. The related problem of construction of a triangle given its circumcenter, incenter, and one vertex is revisited, and it is established that such...
