Triangles have a Magic Highway bakunin888: The centroid is the actual centre of the triangle! The others are mere impostors! The centroid is by far the most convincing -true centre- if you have to pick one because it is the centre of mass, i. e. the average position of all the points in the triangle, which is also the only physically real centre. This is well demonstrated: in my geometry classes we make cardboard triangles of any shape and find the centroid by drawing lines from the midpoints of each side to the opposite angle, and make a hole. Pin the triangle to the wall through the centroid and it will spin very freely and smoothly. Make a hole at the orthocentre or one of the other centres and notice how the triangle wobbles awkwardly as it spins in comparison.

Sin waves are the real creators of the ratios. That's why you have the ratios. Each thing like centroid etc are special angles of sin. A triangle is a special planar vortex. They can always be split to two right. Equi is quantum duality. Resonance is a equal side match of any shape triangles. A D in the formation is where all center meet. That's why most creatures are like worms. The shape of BH. Equality is the chance of meeting or superficial. BH are the male aspects of the cosmos. Croissants. A cocktail of Eclipses of moon. Do universes flip yes sometimes. Maybe once in a blue moon. They are just quantum predictions.

That was my school geometry:
Given any triangle, prove that angle bysectors, medians and heights of its 3 angles always intersect at one point, and so do the perpendicular bycenters. (The 4 points of intersections do not have to be the same)
In other words, prove that in enter, medicenter, orthocenter and circumcenter always exist for any triangle.
Anyone can point me to the proofs.
We didn't learn about the Euler line, but the proof of that would be interesting too.

now that i have revisited the video, i'm also astounded by the method to proof centroid separates the line 2: 1
because the center triangle forms a parallelogram & its centroid remains the same
therefore repeatedly add center triangles will get the longer side equals 1-0. 5+0. 25. = 1/(1+0. 5) = 2/3
& so the ratio is (2/3): (1/3) which is 2: 1

Using euclidean tools, and draw circles based upon the centers of the three sides, and then draw a circle that encloses and touches all three circles, one would presume that the center of that larger circle would also be on that line. But it isn't. Do we know why? Is this another case of the In-center?

Amazing video! Two questions:
1. Can you find the point that represents the smallest total summed distance from itself to each of the points? (Smallest value for XA+XB+XC)
2. Can these nuggets of wisdom be extrapolated to any other n-sided shape? Does it work for shapes that contain concave angles?

If you apply a projective transformation to the equilateral triangle case how is it that one point is split into three if under projection distinct points are mapped to distinct points? Bisecting the Euler line gives the centre of the Feuerbach 9-point ciecle. Nice animations. (Dr) Rhydian Harker.

Question: Given the three -centers- is it possible to determine the triangle that generated them? If not, what is the class of triangles that may have generated them? What is the situation in the degenerative cases where two or all three of the -centers- coincide?
Any thoughts?

reply

Wow! I never knew that the three centers lie on the same line! I thought that my education system beat Euclidean geometry to death and I guess not. I am here after watching all the -clown- videos (wink wink. I am so happy that I didn't skip this video.

thanks so much, brilliant subject and brilliantly explained. i dont want to exagerate, but so many answers to so many misteries in life (from piramids to perpetum mobile, to the masonic logo) may be answered with this explanation
