Please enable Java to see an interactive version of Napoleon's theorem Drag any of the large red vertices of the inner triangle to see Napoleon's theorem in action! If you erect an equilateral triangle on each side of a triangle, then the centroids of these triangles form again an equilateral triangle, no matter which triangle you started with in the beginning.

NAPOLEON'S THEOREM Napoleon Bonaparte was a dictator and emperor of France during their height and power. He took over almost all of Europe and was a tactical leader. He also was interested in mathematics. His discovery, Napoleon's Theorem, is a very interesting tesselation. It is basically this. If you take any triangle ABC and draw equilateral triangles on the sides facing outwards then the incenters of the 3 equilateral triangles connected will form a equilateral triangle. Below is a diagram of this theorem. Later M.C. Escher discovered other things shown below and the theorem expanded to be a fairly complex tesselation. THE THEOREM MC ESCHER'S DISCOVERY to home page

MATH AND ENGINES Welcome to my page. My name is Daniel Huck and I am in 8th grade. I am in a geometry class at Littleton High School. I have a RC airplane so that is why I wrote this page. This page is about different engine air-fuel ratios on carburetors and fuel-injection that are related to math and has some animated diagrams and graphs. There is also some flexagon information and links. Finally, there is a Napoleon's Theorem which is a diagram made by the French emperor. I hope you find this page interesting and informative. I tried to make it very easy to understand with a lot of illustrations. Below is the description of my page. Napoleon's Theorem is an interesting design that involves triangles and incenter. My section has a design of one and tells more about this design. Go to Napoleon's Theorem for this section. I compare carburetors and fuel injection on cars and other vehicles. I also look into the air-fuel ratios of the 2. Included is many visuals and an animated throttle. Go to Carbs vs. Injection

June Lester - Mathematical publications Matric vector spaces Geometric characterization problems Spacetime geometry Complex triangle and polygon geometry ... Misscellaneous topics (Note: some of the papers listed below appear in more than one section. There are 39 distinct papers.) Metric vector spaces A metric vector space is a vector space which has a (usually indefinite) scalar product. I first became fascinated with these spaces as a beginning master's student. Geometrically interesting in their own right (as Euclidean n-space or Minkowski spacetime, for example), they are also invaluable as coordinate spaces: it's quite extraordinary just how many classical geometries can be coordinatized by n-tuples subject to some indefinite scalar product. And looking at these geometries through their coordinate spaces often makes obvious the isomorphisms between different models of the same geometry, or even between different geometries: the same coordinate space implies the same or related geometries.

A. G. Horvath, I. Prok: Packing Congruent Bricks into a Cube, 5 (2001) 001012

Hence, fundamentally, this is a special packing problem: some bricks having fixed volume must be put into a container of given volume. From the combinatorial point of view, similar container problems were investigated by D. Jennings. The first author has found a possible universal arrangement, and someone else has found an additional one which has proved to be different under the symmetries of the cube. In the paper we introduce an algorithm for finding all the different universal arrangements. As a result we obtain 21 possibilities (listed in Section 4) by the corresponding computer program. Our method seems to be suitable for solving the analogous problem in higher dimensions.

P. Pech: The Harmonic Analysis of Polygons and Napoleon's Theorem, 5 (2001) 013022
Plane closed polygons are harmonically analysed, i.e., they are expressed in the form of the sum of fundamental k-regular polygons. From this point of view Napoleon's theorem and its generalization, the so-called theorem of Petr, are studied. By means of Petr's theorem the fundamental polygons of an arbitrary polygon have been found geometrically.

http://alvyray.com/Geometry/HexagonTheorm.htm
Every triangle has an infinite sequence of regular hexagons. Move any of the three red dots to change the gray triangle to any arbitrary triangle . This first theorem says there is an infinite sequence of regular hexagons intimately associated with each triangle, and centered on it (its centroid). Some of the hexagons you might think would be in the sequence aren't. Only those that are 2 n m times as large as the two smallest hexagons are in the sequence, for nonnegative integers n m . You can also move the green point along one edge of the triangle. This changes the parameterization of the hexagons. See paper for full details, such as how this theorem is a generalization of Napoleon's Theorem. An even prettier theorem.

Sample activities, which cover art, explorations, demonstrations, and constructions, are included. For example, the activity in art discusses vanishing points and gives step-by-step directions for drawing a box with two-point perspective. One investigation explores exterior angles in a polygon. The investigation starts with summing the exterior angles of a pentagon. Parts of the pentagon are moved to see if the sum changes. The students are expected to make a conjecture concerning the sum of the exterior angles of any polygon and investigate the conjecture by constructing and manipulating other polygons. Blackline masters and teaching notes are provided for these activities. (Author/JAR). Reviews and Awards:
