2. Triangle center - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle_center

   In geometry, a triangle center or triangle centre is a point in the triangle's plane that is in some sense in the middle of the triangle. For example, the centroid , circumcenter , incenter and orthocenter were familiar to the ancient Greeks , and can be obtained by simple constructions .

3. Centroid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centroid

   In mathematics and physics, the centroid, also known as geometric center or center of figure, of a plane figure or solid figure is the arithmetic mean position of all the points in the surface of the figure. [further explanation needed] The same definition extends to any object in -dimensional Euclidean space. [1]

4. Centre (geometry) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centre_(geometry)

   The centre of a parabola is the contact point of the figurative straight. The centre of a hyperbola lies without the curve, since the figurative straight crosses the curve. The tangents from the centre to the hyperbola are called 'asymptotes'. Their contact points are the two points at infinity on the curve.

5. Nine-point center - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine-point_center

   A triangle showing its circumcircle and circumcenter (black), altitudes and orthocenter (red), and nine-point circle and nine-point center (blue) In geometry , the nine-point center is a triangle center , a point defined from a given triangle in a way that does not depend on the placement or scale of the triangle.

6. Center (group theory) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Center_(group_theory)

   The center of the symmetric group, S n, is trivial for n ≥ 3. The center of the alternating group, A n, is trivial for n ≥ 4. The center of the general linear group over a field F, GL n (F), is the collection of scalar matrices, { sI n ∣ s ∈ F \ {0} }. The center of the orthogonal group, O n (F) is {I n, −I n}.

7. Homothetic center - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homothetic_center

   Figure 1: The point O is an external homothetic center for the two triangles. The size of each figure is proportional to its distance from the homothetic center. In geometry, a homothetic center (also called a center of similarity or a center of similitude) is a point from which at least two geometrically similar figures can be seen as a dilation or contraction of one another.
