X(40)
(BEVAN POINT)


Click here to access the list of all triangle centers.

Interactive Applet

You can move the points A, B and C (click on the point and drag it).
Press the keys “+” and “−” to zoom in or zoom out the visualization window and use the arrow keys to translate it.

You can also construct all centers related with this one (as described in ETC) using the “Run Macro Tool”. To do this, click on the icon Run Macro Tool, select the center name from the list and, then, click on the vertices A, B and C successively.

The JRE (Java Runtime Environment) is not enabled in your browser!

Download all construction files and macros: tc.zip (10.1 Mb).
This applet was built with the free and multiplatform dynamic geometry software C.a.R..

Trilinears           cos B + cos C - cos A - 1 : cos C + cos A - cos B - 1 : cos A + cos B - cos C - 1
                                    = f(a,b,c) : f(b,c,a) : f(c,a,b), where f(a,b,c) = b/(c + a - b) + c/(a + b - c) - a/(b + c - a)
                                    = g(A,B,C) : g(B,C,A) : g(C,A,B), where
                                    g(A,B,C) = sin2(B/2) + sin2(C/2) - sin2(A/2)

X(40) = point of concurrence of the perpendiculars from the excenters to the respective sides
X(40) = circumcenter of the excentral triangle
X(40) = incenter of the extangents triangle if triangle ABC is acute
X(40) = perspector of the excentral and extangents triangles

This point is mentioned in a problem proposal by Benjamin Bevan, published in Leybourn's Mathematical Repository, 1804, p. 18.
