The center of a circle |
2019-10-24 |
|
From Patrick: I'm trying to find a quick calculation to find the center of the circle that will touch the 3 points of an isosceles triangle.
Known dimensions are length of the triangle base and the height from the top point to the middle of the base.
Thanks in advance,
Kind regards,
Patrick Answered by Penny Nom. |

A cyclic quadrilateral |
2014-03-28 |
|
From Carly: Suppose ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral, i.e A, B, C, and D are the points on a circle,
given in order going around the circle. Show that if we join each of A, B, C, and D to the orthocentre
of the triangle formed by the other three, then the resulting line segments all intersect in a common midpoint.
Thank you. Answered by Chris Fisher. |

The centre and radius of a circle |
2006-04-02 |

From Kaye: I need to calculate Dimension E and F. I am given A, B, C, (or over all A+B+C), D, G. The radius is one continuous unknown radius.
Example: A = 23.50
B = 35.50
C = 0.50
D = 11.50
G = 23.50
I have calculated this for angles but my mind is drawing a blank for the radius calculation. I can draw it but I need to put into Excel spreadsheet.

A circle problem |
2006-01-23 |
|
From Matyan:
Find the standard equation of the circle that passes through the points (0,4) and (3,7) with center on the line
2x-y+4=0.
I've tried substituting the two points to the general equation of a circle, but I can't solve it without a third equation. The problem here is I don't really know how to use the given line of 2x-y+4=0. Please help. Thank you.
