  2. Polar circle (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    Any two polar circles of two triangles in an orthocentric system are orthogonal. [1]: p. 177 The polar circles of the triangles of a complete quadrilateral form a coaxal system. [1]: p. 179 The most important property of the polar circle is the triangle is self-polar; the polar of each side/point is the opposite side/point.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_trigonometry

    The polar triangle A'B'C' The polar triangle associated with a triangle ABC is defined as follows. Consider the great circle that contains the side BC. This great circle is defined by the intersection of a diametral plane with the surface.

  4. Pole and polar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pole_and_polar

    If two lines a and k pass through a single point Q, then the polar q of Q joins the poles A and K of the lines a and k, respectively. The concepts of a pole and its polar line were advanced in projective geometry. For instance, the polar line can be viewed as the set of projective harmonic conjugates of a given point, the pole, with respect to ...

  5. Spherical geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_geometry

    The sum of the angles of a spherical triangle is not equal to 180°. A sphere is a curved surface, but locally the laws of the flat (planar) Euclidean geometry are good approximations. In a small triangle on the face of the earth, the sum of the angles is only slightly more than 180 degrees. A sphere with a spherical triangle on it.

    Regular polygons; Description Figure Second moment of area Comment A filled regular (equiliteral) triangle with a side length of a = = [6] The result is valid for both a horizontal and a vertical axis through the centroid, and therefore is also valid for an axis with arbitrary direction that passes through the origin.

  7. Modern triangle geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_triangle_geometry

    Any triangle ABC and its tangential triangle are in perspective and the axis of perspectivity is called the Lemoine axis of triangle ABC. It is the trilinear polar of the symmedian point of triangle ABC and also the polar of K with regard to the circumcircle of triangle ABC. [11] [12]

  8. Nine-point circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine-point_circle

    The orthopole of lines passing through the circumcenter lie on the nine-point circle. A triangle's circumcircle, its nine-point circle, its polar circle, and the circumcircle of its tangential triangle [9] are coaxal. [10] Trilinear coordinates for the center of the Kiepert hyperbola are
