  • The Malfatti Problem
    Forum Geometricorum b Volume 1 (2001) 43–50. bbb FORUM GEOM ISSN 1534-1178 The Malfatti Problem Oene Bottema Abstract. A solution is given of Steiner’s variation of the classical Malfatti problem in which the triangle is replaced by three circles mutually tangent to each other externally. The two circles tangent to the three given ones, presently known as Soddy’s circles, are encountered as well. In this well known problem, construction is sought for three circles C1, C2 and C3, tangent to each other pairwise, and of which C1 is tangent to the sides A1A2 and A1A3 of a given triangle A1A2A3, while C2 is tangent to A2A3 and A2A1 and C3 to A3A1 and A3A2. The problem was posed by Malfatti in 1803 and solved by him with the help of an algebraic analysis. Very well known is the extraordinarily elegant geometric solution that Steiner announced without proof in 1826. This solution, together with the proof Hart gave in 1857, one can find in various textbooks.1 Steiner has also considered extensions of the problem and given solutions. The first is the one where the lines A2A3, A3A1 and A1A2 are replaced by circles. Further generalizations concern the figures of three circles on a sphere, and of three conic sections on a quadric surface. In the nineteenth century many mathematicians have worked on this problem. Among these were Cayley (1852) 2, Schellbach (who in 1853 published a very nice goniometric solution), and Clebsch (who in 1857 extended Schellbach’s solution to three conic sections on a quadric surface, and for that he made use of elliptic functions).

  • Triangle Centers Associated with the Malfatti Circles
    Forum Geometricorum b Volume 3 (2003) 83–93. bbb FORUM GEOM ISSN 1534-1178 Triangle Centers Associated with the Malfatti Circles Milorad R. Stevanovi´c Abstract. Various formulae for the radii of the Malfatti circles of a triangle are presented. We also express the radii of the excircles in terms of the radii of the Malfatti circles, and give the coordinates of some interesting triangle centers associated with the Malfatti circles. 1. The radii of the Malfatti circles The Malfatti circles of a triangle are the three circles inside the triangle, mutually tangent to each other, and each tangent to two sides of the triangle. See Figure 1. Given a triangle ABC, let a, b, c denote the lengths of the sides BC, CA, AB, s the semiperimeter, I the incenter, and r its inradius. The radii of the Malfatti circles of triangle ABC are given by C X3 r3 Y3 r3 O3 C3 X2 C2 r I 2 C Y1 1 O2 r1 O1 r2 r1 A Z1 Z2 B Figure 1 r r = (s − r − (IB + IC − IA)) , 1 2(s − a) r r = (s − r − (IC + IA − IB)) , 2 2(s − b) (1) r r = (s − r − (IA + IB − IC)) . 3 2(s − c) Publication Date: March 24, 2003.

Euclid and the Equilateral Triangle (Elements: Book I, Proposition 1) Preface v PREFACE Welcome to Mysteries of the Equilateral Triangle (MOTET), my collection of equilateral triangular arcana. While at first sight this might seem an id- iosyncratic choice of subject matter for such a detailed and elaborate study, a moment’s reflection reveals the worthiness of its selection. Human beings, “being as they be”, tend to take for granted some of their greatest discoveries (witness the wheel, fire, language, music,...). In Mathe- matics, the once flourishing topic of Triangle Geometry has turned fallow and fallen out of vogue (although Phil Davis offers us hope that it may be resusci- tated by The Computer [70]). A regrettable casualty of this general decline in prominence has been the Equilateral Triangle. Yet, the facts remain that Mathematics resides at the very core of human civilization, Geometry lies at the structural heart of Mathematics and the Equilateral Triangle provides one of the marble pillars of Geometry.

  • Abridged Notation in Analytic Plane Geometry
    Abridged Notation in Analytic Plane Geometry Thomas Howard Abstract An examination of the abridged notation that Salmon introduces in his treatment of lines, circles and conics. Explaining what he means by abridged notation, and showing how he uses it to study various loci in plane geometry. Culminating in its use to show how it may prove the theorems of Pascal and Brianchon, the theorem of Steiner on Pascals hexagons and Steiner’s solution of Malfatti’s problem. Reference: George Salmon: “A Treatise on Conic Sections” Longman, Brown, Green and Longmans, London 1855. Introduction “A Point is that which cannot be divided.” So wrote Euclid more than 2000 years ago and it is still a reasonable defin- ition of a point after all this time. However, it is not the way that we usually define points in geometry today, and similarly Euclid’s other axioms have been iterated on over the years. Definitions are a side of mathematics that it is easy to brush past without too much consideration, to see definitions as the dull but necessary steppingstone to more interesting things. However, I hope to demon- strate in this thesis that understanding the consequences of definitions provides a greater understanding of the subtle challenges inherent in any algebraic treat- ment of geometry. We will examine a different way of defining and discussing planar geometry algebraically, using something Salmon called “Abridged Notation”. We will build up an understanding of this new system of thinking and then apply it to four classical problems to show how it can be used. By the end of this thesis we should understand the change of perspective this notation offers; the advantages and disadvantages compared to the usual Cartesian system and the choices we make by employing a given set of definitions.

We could not find (March 2015) in the literature new theorems in mathematics, dis- covered by computers, different from the results discovered by the “Discoverer”. Hence, we present some results discovered by the computer program “Discoverer”. The computer program “Discoverer” is the first computer program, able easily to discover new theorems in mathematics, and possibly, the first computer program, able easily to discover new knowledge in science. The creation of the computer program “Discoverer” began in June 2012. The “Discoverer” is created by the authors - Sava Grozdev and Deko Dekov. In 2006 was created the prototype of the “Discoverer”, named the “Machine for Questions nd Answers”. The prototype has discovered a few thousands new theorems. The prototype of the “Discoverer” has been created by using the JavaScript.

  • Triangle Circle Limits
    The Journal of Symbolic Geometry Volume 1 (2006) Triangle Circle Limits Walker Ray Lakeside High School Lake Oswego, OR [email protected] Abstract: We examine the limit behavior of various triangle circles, called “limit circles”, as the vertices of the triangle coalesce. Introduction To aid my research I used mathematical software programs, most importantly Geometry Expressions and Maple. The use of technology allowed me to complete this research topic successfully. I was able to visualize the problems I was trying to solve and eliminate a great deal of error from my work by utilizing these programs. This allowed me to use creativity in studying my topic and quickly find solutions to the problems I faced. Limit Circles A “limit circle” is an extension of the concept of single dimension interpolation where two or more points have coalesced. The limit circumcircle is a simple, non- trivial case of multidimensional interpolation through points that have coalesced. We will see that the limit circumcircle has some unexpected properties, especially in terms of its relation to the other triangle circles. Limit Circles 25 Limit Circumradius – Two Coalescing Points: C b A a D c B Figure 1. Triangle ABC with circumcircle We start by examining the limit of the circumradius of a triangle as two of the vertices coalesce. To define the radius of the limit circle, we examine the behavior of the circle as vertices B and C approach one another. Using the Law of Sines, we know that the circumradius R of triangle ABC with a sides a, b, and c opposite the angles A, B, and C is R = .

  • Pseudo-Incircles
    Forum Geometricorum b Volume 6 (2006) 107–115. bbb FORUM GEOM ISSN 1534-1178 Pseudo-Incircles Stanley Rabinowitz Abstract. This paper generalizes properties of mixtilinear incircles. Let (S) be any circle in the plane of triangle ABC. Suppose there are circles (Sa), (Sb), and (Sc) each tangent internally to (S); and (Sa) is inscribed in angle BAC (similarly for (Sb) and (Sc)). Let the points of tangency of (Sa), (Sb), and (Sc) with (S) be X, Y , and Z, respectively. Then it is shown that the lines AX, BY , and CZ meet in a point. 1. Introduction A mixtilinear incircle of a triangle ABC is a circle tangent to two sides of the triangle and also internally tangent to the circumcircle of that triangle. In 1999, Paul Yiu discovered an interesting property of these mixtilinear incircles. Proposition 1 (Yiu [8]). If the points of contact of the mixtilinear incircles of ABC with the circumcircle are X, Y , and Z, then the lines AX, BY , and CZ are concurrent (Figure 1). The point of concurrence is the external center of similitude of the incircle and the circumcircle. 1 Y A Y A Sb Z Sc Z B C Sa B C X X Figure 1 Figure 2 I wondered if there was anything special about the circumcircle in Proposition 1. After a little experimentation, I discovered that the result would remain true if the circumcircle was replaced with any circle in the plane of ABC. Publication Date: March 26, 2006. Communicating Editor: Paul Yiu. 1 This is the triangle center X56 in Kimberling’s list [5].

  • American Mathematical Monthly Geometry Problems 1894 –
    YIU : Problems in Elementary Geometry 1 American Mathematical Monthly Geometry Problems 1894 – Vis171. (Marcus Baker) In a traingle ABC, the center of the circumscribed circle is O, the center of the inscribed circle is I, and the orthocenter is H. Knowing the sides of the triangle OIH, determine the sides of triangle ABC. R − 2 Solution by W.P. Casey: Let N be the nine-point center. From IN = 2 r and OI = R(R − 2r), R and r can be determined. The circumcircle and the incircle, and the nine-point circle, can all be constructed. Then, Casey wrote, “[i]t only remains to find a point C in the circumcircle of ABC so that the tangent CA CA to circle I may be bisected by the circle N in the point S, which is easily done”. [sic] The construction of ABC from OIH cannot be effected by ruler and compass in general. Casey continued to derive the cubic equation with roots cos α, cos β,cosγ, and coefficients in terms of R, r,and := OH,namely, r 4(R + r)2 − (2 +3R2) R2 − 2 x3 − (1 + )x2 + x − =0. R 8R2 8R2 Given triangle OIH,letN be the midpoint of OH. Construct the circle through N tangent to OI at O.ExtendIN to intersect this circle again at M. The diameter of the circumcircle is equal to the length of IM. From this, the circumcircle, the nine-point circle, and the incircle can be constructed. Now, it remains to select a point X on the nine point circle so that the perpendicular to OX is tangent to the incircle.

  • A Generalized Malfatti Problem
    A Generalized Malfatti Problem Ching‐Shoei Chiang,1 Christoph M. Hoffmann,2 and Paul Rosen3 Soochow University, Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C. Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN, USA Abstract Malfatti’s problem, first published in 1803, is commonly understood to ask fitting three circles into a given triangle such that they are tangent to each other, externally, and such that each circle is tangent to a pair of the triangle’s sides. There are many solutions based on geometric constructions, as well as generalizations in which the triangle sides are assumed to be circle arcs. A generalization that asks to fit six circles into the triangle, tangent to each other and to the triangle sides, has been considered a good example of a problem that requires sophisticated numerical iteration to solve by computer. We analyze this problem and show how to solve it quickly. Keywords: Malfatti’s problem, circle packing, geometric constraint solving, GPU programming. 1. Introduction Geometric constraint solving plays a pivotal role in computer-aided design (CAD). Practical solvers include graph-theoretic solvers in which the constraint problem is decomposed into sub problems of known structure, those sub problems subsequently are solved, and then the solution fragments are assembled into a solution of the original problem; e.g., [1,10,11,13,15]. Such constraint sub problems often involve constructing circles with unknown radius and center. In the literature on this subject, such circles are determined, one at a time, either sequentially, for instance when required to be tangent to three geometric elements [5], or simultaneously with other elements, for example when tangent to four geometric elements, not all fixed in relation to each other; e.g., [6].

We define Moses Triangles and by using the computer program "Machine for Questions and Answers", we find perspectives of Moses Triangles. The Moses triangles are named in honor of Peter J. C. Moses, who defined and studied the Inner and the Outer Moses triangles in the case of the Lucas circles [5]. Peter J. C. Moses [5] identified the perspector between the Inner (Outer) Moses triangle and the Outer Apollonius triangle, for the case of the Lucas circles. Given three circles (A), (B) and (C) with noncollinear centers A, B and C, respectively. Let (R) is the Radical Circle of the given circles. Let A1 be the Internal Similitude Center of circles of (R) and (A). Similarly define B1 and C1. The triangle A1B1C1 is called the Inner Moses Triangle of circles (A), (B), (C).
