Srinivasan, V. K.
International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, v43 n7 p972-982 2012
In this note, primarily intended for high school students and high school teachers, characterizations of a right triangle and an equilateral triangle in the Euclidean plane are presented using the nine-point circle of a given triangle. Geometrical applications are explored along with their possible uses in the teaching environment. (Contains 4 figures.)
