A circle that is tangent to two sides of a triangle, as the Malfatti circles are, must be centered on one of the angle bisectors of the triangle (green in the figure). These bisectors partition the triangle into three smaller triangles, and Steiner's construction of the Malfatti circles begins by drawing a different triple of circles (shown ...
Enclosed Alphanumerics is a Unicode block of typographical symbols of an alphanumeric within a circle, a bracket or other not-closed enclosure, or ending in a full stop. It is currently fully allocated. Within the Basic Multilingual Plane, a few additional enclosed numerals are in the Dingbats and the Enclosed CJK Letters and Months blocks.
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.
Determination of a circle, that intersects four circles by the same angle. [2] Solving the Problem of Apollonius; Construction of the Malfatti circles: [3] For a given triangle determine three circles, which touch each other and two sides of the triangle each. Spherical version of Malfatti's problem: [4] The triangle is a spherical one.
The useful minimum bounding circle of three points is defined either by the circumcircle (where three points are on the minimum bounding circle) or by the two points of the longest side of the triangle (where the two points define a diameter of the circle). It is common to confuse the minimum bounding circle with the circumcircle.
The radius of a triangle's circumcircle is twice the radius of that triangle's nine-point circle. [6]: p.153 Figure 3. A nine-point circle bisects a line segment going from the corresponding triangle's orthocenter to any point on its circumcircle. Figure 4
The large triangle that is inscribed in the circle gets subdivided into three smaller triangles, all of which are isosceles because their upper two sides are radii of the circle. Inside each isosceles triangle the pair of base angles are equal to each other, and are half of 180° minus the apex angle at the circle's center.
Two triangles are said to be poristic triangles if they have the same incircle and circumcircle. Given a circle with Center O and radius R and another circle with center I and radius r, there are an infinite number of triangles ABC with Circle O(R) as circumcircle and I(r) as incircle if and only if OI 2 = R 2 − 2Rr. These triangles form a ...
