  2. Median triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Median_triangle

    The median triangle of a given (reference) triangle is a triangle, the sides of which are equal and parallel to the medians of its reference triangle. The area of the median triangle is of the area of its reference triangle, and the median triangle of the median triangle is similar to the reference triangle of the first median triangle with a ...

  3. Median (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    The triangle medians and the centroid.. 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 cent

  4. Medial triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medial_triangle

    The medial triangle is not the same thing as the median triangle, which is the triangle whose sides have the same lengths as the medians of ABC. Each side of the medial triangle is called a midsegment (or midline). In general, a midsegment of a triangle is a line segment which joins the midpoints of two sides of the triangle.

  5. Geometric median - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_median

    For the 1-dimensional case, the geometric median coincides with the median.This is because the univariate median also minimizes the sum of distances from the points. (More precisely, if the points are p 1, ..., p n, in that order, the geometric median is the middle point (+) / if n is odd, but is not uniquely determined if n is even, when it can be any point in the line segment between the two ...

  6. Cevian - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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. Automedian triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automedian_triangle

    There is only one automedian right triangle, the triangle with side lengths proportional to 1, the square root of 2, and the square root of 3. [2] This triangle is the second triangle in the spiral of Theodorus. It is the only right triangle in which two of the medians are perpendicular to each other. [2]

    A triangle is a polygon with three corners and three sides, one of the basic shapes in geometry. ... The centroid cuts every median in the ratio 2:1, i.e. the ...

  9. List of triangle inequalities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_triangle_inequalities

    The parameters most commonly appearing in triangle inequalities are: the side lengths a, b, and c;; the semiperimeter s = (a + b + c) / 2 (half the perimeter p);; the angle measures A, B, and C of the angles of the vertices opposite the respective sides a, b, and c (with the vertices denoted with the same symbols as their angle measures);
