  2. Incircle and excircles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incircle_and_excircles

    The Cartesian coordinates of the incenter are a weighted average of the coordinates of the three vertices using the side lengths of the triangle relative to the perimeter (that is, using the barycentric coordinates given above, normalized to sum to unity) as weights. The weights are positive so the incenter lies inside the triangle as stated above.

  3. Nagel point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nagel_point

    Another construction of the point T A is to start at A and trace around triangle ABC half its perimeter, and similarly for T B and T C. Because of this construction, the Nagel point is sometimes also called the bisected perimeter point, and the segments AT A, BT B, CT C are called the triangle's splitters.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incenter

    The Cartesian coordinates of the incenter are a weighted average of the coordinates of the three vertices using the side lengths of the triangle relative to the perimeter—i.e., using the barycentric coordinates given above, normalized to sum to unity—as weights. (The weights are positive so the incenter lies inside the triangle as stated ...

  5. Trisected perimeter point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trisected_perimeter_point

    In geometry, given a triangle ABC, there exist unique points A´, B´, and C´ on the sides BC, CA, AB respectively, such that: [1] A´, B´, and C´ partition the perimeter of the triangle into three equal-length pieces. That is, C´B + BA´ = B´A + AC´ = A´C + CB´. The three lines AA´, BB´, and CC´ meet in a point, the trisected ...

  6. Semiperimeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semiperimeter

    The three splitters concur at the Nagel point of the triangle. A cleaver of a triangle is a line segment that bisects the perimeter of the triangle and has one endpoint at the midpoint of one of the three sides. So any cleaver, like any splitter, divides the triangle into two paths each of whose length equals the semiperimeter.

  7. Perimeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perimeter

    The three splitters of a triangle all intersect each other at the Nagel point of the triangle. A cleaver of a triangle is a segment from the midpoint of a side of a triangle to the opposite side such that the perimeter is divided into two equal lengths. The three cleavers of a triangle all intersect each other at the triangle's Spieker center.

    Shoelace scheme for determining the area of a polygon with point coordinates (,),..., (,). The shoelace formula, also known as Gauss's area formula and the surveyor's formula, [1] is a mathematical algorithm to determine the area of a simple polygon whose vertices are described by their Cartesian coordinates in the plane.
