Relations between Some Characteristic Lengths in a Triangle
Koepf, Wolfram; Brede, Markus
International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, v12 n4 p149-154 2005
The paper's aim is to note a remarkable (and apparently unknown) relation for right triangles, its generalisation to arbitrary triangles and the possibility to derive these and some related relations by elimination using Groebner basis computations with a modern computer algebra system. (Contains 9 figures.)
