The butterfly theorem is a classical result in Euclidean geometry, which can be stated as follows: [1]: p. 78 Let M be the midpoint of a chord PQ of a circle, through which two other chords AB and CD are drawn; AD and BC intersect chord PQ at X and Y correspondingly. Then M is the midpoint of XY.
In geometry, Thales's theorem states that if A, B, and C are distinct points on a circle where the line AC is a diameter, the angle ∠ ABC is a right angle. Thales's theorem is a special case of the inscribed angle theorem and is mentioned and proved as part of the 31st proposition in the third book of Euclid's Elements. [1]
Circle through exactly four points given by Schinzel's construction Schinzel proved this theorem by the following construction. If n {\displaystyle n} is an even number, with n = 2 k {\displaystyle n=2k} , then the circle given by the following equation passes through exactly n {\displaystyle n} points: [ 1 ] [ 2 ] ( x − 1 2 ) 2 + y 2 = 1 4 5 ...
Conway's circle theorem as a special case of the generalisation, called "side divider theorem" (Villiers) or "windscreen wiper theorem" (Polster)) Conway's circle is a special case of a more general circle for a triangle that can be obtained as follows: Given any ABC with an arbitrary point P on line AB.
The second theorem considers five circles in general position passing through a single point M. Each subset of four circles defines a new point P according to the first theorem. Then these five points all lie on a single circle C. The third theorem considers six circles in general position that pass through a single point M. Each subset of five ...

This problem is known as the primitive circle problem, as it involves searching for primitive solutions to the original circle problem. [9] It can be intuitively understood as the question of how many trees within a distance of r are visible in the Euclid's orchard , standing in the origin.
