... In [10], K. Sastry gives an other version of the Steiner-Lehmus theorem using the equality of two Gergonne cevians. In this paper, we give some analogue theorems in which we consider two equal Nagel cevians. A cevian is a line segment that joins a vertex to a point on the opposite side. If D, E, F a ...

Draw a triangle that satisfies the set of conditions
... This means the third angle would equal 0°, which is not possible. b. never; The sum of the interior angles in a triangle is 180°. The measure of an obtuse angle is greater than 90°. So, a triangle cannot have more than one obtuse angle. 14. Reason Inductively Miguel says that an equilateral triangl ...

... Let’s focus now on two types of triangles in particular – the isosceles triangle and the equilateral triangle. The definition of an isosceles triangle is one that has at least two congruent sides. These congruent sides are called legs and the remaining side is called the base. The angle formed by th ...

Incircle and excircles of a triangle
Incircle redirects here. For incircles of non-triangle polygons, see Tangential quadrilateral or Tangential polygon.In geometry, the incircle or inscribed circle of a triangle is the largest circle contained in the triangle; it touches (is tangent to) the three sides. The center of the incircle is called the triangle's incenter.An excircle or escribed circle of the triangle is a circle lying outside the triangle, tangent to one of its sides and tangent to the extensions of the other two. Every triangle has three distinct excircles, each tangent to one of the triangle's sides.The center of the incircle, called the incenter, can be found as the intersection of the three internal angle bisectors. The center of an excircle is the intersection of the internal bisector of one angle (at vertex A, for example) and the external bisectors of the other two. The center of this excircle is called the excenter relative to the vertex A, or the excenter of A. Because the internal bisector of an angle is perpendicular to its external bisector, it follows that the center of the incircle together with the three excircle centers form an orthocentric system.Polygons with more than three sides do not all have an incircle tangent to all sides; those that do are called tangential polygons. See also Tangent lines to circles.
