  2. Bisection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bisection

    Construction by straight edge and compass. In classical geometry, the bisection is a simple compass and straightedge construction, whose possibility depends on the ability to draw arcs of equal radii and different centers: The segment is bisected by drawing intersecting circles of equal radius , whose centers are the endpoints of the segment.

  3. Bisection method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bisection_method

    The bigger red dot is the root of the function. In mathematics, the bisection method is a root-finding method that applies to any continuous function for which one knows two values with opposite signs. The method consists of repeatedly bisecting the interval defined by these values and then selecting the subinterval in which the function ...

  4. Angle bisector theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle_bisector_theorem

    The angle bisector theorem states that the ratio of the length of the line segment BD to the length of segment CD is equal to the ratio of the length of side AB to the length of side AC: and conversely, if a point D on the side BC of ABC divides BC in the same ratio as the sides AB and AC, then AD is the angle bisector of angle ∠ A.

  6. Cevian - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cevian

    Cevian. In geometry, a cevian is a line segment which joins a vertex of a triangle to a point on the opposite side of the triangle. [1][2] Medians and angle bisectors are special cases of cevians. The name "cevian" comes from the Italian mathematician Giovanni Ceva, who proved a well-known theorem about cevians which also bears his name.

  7. Incenter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incenter

    Incenter. The point of intersection of angle bisectors of the 3 angles of triangle ABC is the incenter (denoted by I). The incircle (whose center is I) touches each side of the triangle. In geometry, the incenter of a triangle is a triangle center, a point defined for any triangle in a way that is independent of the triangle's placement or scale.

  8. Median (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    In geometry, a median of a triangle is a line segment joining a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side, thus bisecting that side. Every triangle has exactly three medians, one from each vertex, and they all intersect at the triangle's centroid. In the case of isosceles and equilateral triangles, a median bisects any angle at a vertex whose ...

  9. Symmedian - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmedian

    Symmedian. In geometry, symmedians are three particular lines associated with every triangle. They are constructed by taking a median of the triangle (a line connecting a vertex with the midpoint of the opposite side), and reflecting the line over the corresponding angle bisector (the line through the same vertex that divides the angle there in ...
