  2. Centre (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    A cyclic polygon has each of its vertices on a particular circle, called the circumcircle or circumscribed circle. The centre of the circumcircle, called the circumcentre, can be considered a centre of the polygon. If a polygon is both tangential and cyclic, it is called bicentric. (All triangles are bicentric, for example.)

  3. Centroid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centroid

    The centroid of a ring or a bowl, for example, lies in the object's central void. If the centroid is defined, it is a fixed point of all isometries in its symmetry group . In particular, the geometric centroid of an object lies in the intersection of all its hyperplanes of symmetry .

  4. List of centroids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_centroids

    The following is a list of centroids of various two-dimensional and three-dimensional objects. The centroid of an object in -dimensional space is the intersection of all hyperplanes that divide into two parts of equal moment about the hyperplane.

  5. Central angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_angle

    Angle AOB is a central angle. A central angle is an angle whose apex (vertex) is the center O of a circle and whose legs (sides) are radii intersecting the circle in two distinct points A and B. Central angles are subtended by an arc between those two points, and the arc length is the central angle of a circle of radius one (measured in radians). [1]

  6. Circumcircle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumcircle

    Hence, given the radius, r, center, P c, a point on the circle, P 0 and a unit normal of the plane containing the circle, ⁠ ^, ⁠ one parametric equation of the circle starting from the point P 0 and proceeding in a positively oriented (i.e., right-handed) sense about ⁠ ^ ⁠ is the following:

  7. Locus (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locus_(mathematics)

    Thus a circle in the Euclidean plane was defined as the locus of a point that is at a given distance of a fixed point, the center of the circle. In modern mathematics, similar concepts are more frequently reformulated by describing shapes as sets; for instance, one says that the circle is the set of points that are at a given distance from the ...

  9. Incircle and excircles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incircle_and_excircles

    The center of the incircle is a triangle center called the triangle's incenter. [1] An excircle or escribed circle [2] 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. [3]
