	The circumcentre, centroid and orthocentre of a triangle		2012-04-24
		From Nazrul: The circumcentre, centroid and orthocentre of a triangle is given. The distance between circumcentre and orthocentre is also given. How can I draw the circle? Please Help me. Answered by Chris Fisher.
	The centroid and circumcircle of a triangle		2008-12-09

	The centroid of a polygon		2007-12-29
		From David: I am playing around with an idea. I've read previous answers to questions (using surveyor calculation methods) related to finding the area of an irregular shape parcel of land (or irregular polygon). Is there a formula or method for calculating the centroid (mid-point) for this type of polygon. I've seen plenty of methods for calculating the mid-point for a triangle or regular shape poloygon but few for an irregular shape polygon such as a parcel of land. Thanks...

	A perpendicular intersection of two barrel vaults		2006-07-21
		From Neal: I'm wanting to build a series of architectural models of different roman and medieval buildings out of cardboard. Once I have perfected the models I want to print them out on card stock so that school kids (or anyone else) can make the buildings. A feature of many of these models is the cross or groin vault (a perpendicular intersection of two barrel vaults). A single barrel vault is easy to imagine as a plane (a rectangular piece of cardboard) that will be folded into a semi-circular arch. The intersection of a second barrel vault and this one is presenting me with problems. The second plane needs to have an ellipse cut into it so that when it is folded into the arch, it will mate up with the curve of the first barrel vault. Given that the two pieces of card have identical widths (and therefore identical arcs in cross section) is there a way to calculate the ellipse that needs to be cut so that it can be cut before the second arch is folded?

	The centroid of a triangle		2006-01-18
		From Andrea: I am trying to find the centriod of a triangle. I have been given the three vertices of the triangle: A (-25, -20), B (-5, -40), and C (15, 30). I believe I calculated the correct midpoints: AB(E) (-5, 5), BC(D) (5, -5), and AC(F) (-15, -30). When I graphed these points I came up with the solution (-5, -10), but I can't seem to write the answer out (equations of the lines, etc) correctly. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

	Vectors in three space		2004-10-30
		From Jo: I have two questions that I just cannot visulise and dont know how to get started on them..! 1. Ship X is sailing North at 4m/s and Ship Y is sailing due East at 3m/s. A sailor on Ship X climbs a vertical pole at 1/2 m/s. What is the velocity of the sailor on Ship X relative to an observer on Ship Y? State it's magnitude and direction. Not sure where to start with this one... 2. Show, using vectors, that for any tetrahedron, the segments joining the midpoints of the opposite edges are concurrent. i know what a tetradedron is, and what I am proving but do I solve simultaneously for a specific case??

	A centroid problem		2000-06-02
		From Kerstin: An isoceles triangle has sides measuring 13 cm, 13 cm, and 10 cm. Find the distance from the centroid to the vertex of a base angle. Answered by Harley Weston.
	Two sides and a bisectrix.		1998-11-11
		From Victor Grinshtein: I am looking for someone who can tell me how to construct a triangle by 2 sides and a bisectrix using a compass and a ruler. Answered by Chris Fisher.
	Volumes		1998-08-29
		From Lorraine Wall: Consider the region in the first quadrant bounded by the x and y axes, the vertical line x=3 and the curve y = 1 / (x squared + 3). Determine the volume of the solid by rotating this region about the x-axis. Now that is the first part. I then have to find the coordinates of the centroid of the solid by rotating this region about the x-axis. Thanks. Lorraine Answered by Harley Weston.

	Les 3 maisons		2003-11-16
		From Amandine: Sur la figure ci-contre on peut voir 3 maisons A, B et C nouvellement construites. Toutes les 3 doivent être reliées au gaz, à l'eau et à l'électricité. Cependant, tous ces raccordements doivent impérativement avoir lieu dans un même plan et les câbles et autres canalisations ne peuvent pas se croiser. Comment doit-on s'y prendre pour relier les 3 maisons à l'eau, au gaz et à l'électricité? Answered by Claude Tardif.
