63. NAPOLEON BONAPARTE
Coxeter and Greitzer then remark that Napoleon probably did not know enough geometryto discover napoleon's theorem, just as he probably did not know enough
http://faculty.evansville.edu/ck6/bstud/napoleon.html
Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821)
Emperor of the French
The famous Napoleon Theorem is stated by Coxeter and Greitzer as follows: If equilateral triangles are erected externally on the sides of any triangle, their centers form an equilateral triangle. They continue with a historical anecdote: It is known that Napoleon Bonaparte was a bit of a mathematician with a great interest in geometry. In fact, there is a story that, before he made himself ruler of the French, he engaged in a discussion with the great mathematicians Lagrange and Laplace until the latter told him, severely, "The last thing we want from you, general, is a lesson in geometry." Laplace became his chief military engineer. Coxeter and Greitzer then remark that Napoleon probably did not know enough geometry to discover Napoleon's Theorem, just as he probably did not know enough English to compose the palindrome often attributed to him: Able was I ere I saw Elba. The portrait is by Anne-Louis Girodet-Trioson (1767-1824). I thank the MAA for permission to quote from H. S. M. Coxeter and S. L. Greitzer

Using this theory, some classical plane geometry theorems are proved, among them : the theorem which gives a necessary and sufficient condition so that four points are cocyclic, the one which shows that the reflected points with respect to the sides of a triangle orthocenter are on its circumscribed circle, the Simson's theorem and the Napoleon's theorem. Elaboration of proofs using Coq that followed the traditional proofs in geometry, and the difficulties encountered are described. Use of the interface Pcoq allows notations close to mathematical ones. KEY-WORDS : COQ / PCOQ / GEOMETRY / THEOREM / PROOF / ANGLE / CIRCLE

INVESTIGATING HISTORICAL PROBLEMS USING GEOMETER'S SKETCHPAD
Mary C. Enderson Indiana University of Pennsylvania, Mathematics Department 233 Stright Hall, Indiana, PA 15705 Investigating Historical Problems Using Geometer's Sketchpad
Mary C. Enderson Naturally, history has a place in the mathematics classroom that should not be overlooked. What many mathematicians fail to recognize is the enhancement of historical investigations by use of technology. Geometer's Sketchpad , a dynamic and interactive piece of software, provides a work environment that allows one to create, test, validate, and manipulate objects. It has the power and flexibility to allow students to examine an infinite number of situations, instead of one singular static case, which is invaluable in attempts to make mathematical conjectures and generalizations. The purpose of this paper is not to shed new light on tasks or problems related to history of math, but to share "golden" opportunities where use of Geometer's Sketchpad (GSP) enhances the investigation of many famous geometric problems. The scope of situations to investigate with this software are unlimited. Users quickly see how technology often generates many additional questions or tasks for students to explore, as well as enabling them to visualize the connections among various mathematics topics.

Technology Applications for the Classroom: A Sample Report
Roger Day return to Writing Assignment #4 a) McGehee, Jean J. "Interactive Technology and Classic Geometry Problems." Mathematics Teacher 91 (March 1998): 204-208. b.i) dynamic geometry software Geometer's Sketchpad b.iii) The author compares two approaches, a traditional approach and an interactive approach, for using dynamic geometry software to explore the circle of Appolonius. She provides step-by-step instructions on both approaches that a Sketchpad user can follow. She claims that the differences in approaches focus on whether students are provided any opportunity to investigate, conjecture, and otherwise carry out some of the steps that a mathematician may actually undergo in attempting to solve a problem. The traditional approach results in a successful verification of the constant ratio in the circle of Appolonius, but allows little if any investigation by users as well as fostering little connection between the concepts involved and the construction carried out. The interactive approach allows users to first experiment and carry out many examples of the situation in order to discover the resultthe constant ratioas a result of the construction. This seemingly subtle difference, the author contends, spells the difference between students simply following and completing a procedure to focusing on the concept of the locus and using technology for exploration and discovery. The author provides suggestions of other classical geometry constructions that teachers might consider for similar interactive approaches. In so doing, students and teachers will experience more completely the kind of activities engaged in by mathematicians.

Geometry term projects Projects are due Tuesday, December 3. Project proposals are due Tuesday, October 8. Projects may be done by a group (of no more than 4 people) or individually. The format of the project may be a paper, a class presentation, a web site, GSP files, or any combination of these things. Your class presentation may involve computer, video, or a class activity. I am very open to different methods of presentation. Part of your proposal is to define the group and the format. You may not do geometry lesson plans as your project unless you have teaching experience. Good starting points for projects are the references listed on the course home page: Useful texts Yahoo! Geometry Math Forum Geometry bibliography . There is a wealth of geometry on the internet! I own many geometry books, and I will lend them to you. Here are some suggestions for topics, in no particular order. You may go into the history, focus on specific theorems, or combine both viewpoints. You may talk about applications or relations to other parts of mathematics such as algebra or calculus.

Mirror reflections and billiard balls give way to mathematical constructs suchas Ptolemy's Theorem, napoleon's theorem and Fourier transformations.

Andrew Glassner's Notebook In 1996 I started writing a regular column for the magazine IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications . I'm happy with my columns, but there are often things that need to get cut out for space reasons. Sometimes I realize some things could have been done better. And errors do make it into print. I've collected the first three years of columns, restored them to their original full-length form, expanded and revised each one, and fixed the errors, resulting in this book. The book now has a sequel, Andrew Glassner's Other Notebook The idea that graphics is fun is reflected in the book's subtitle, Recreational Computer Graphics . The cover is a notebook-style collage of some illustrations from different chapters, evoking the idea of a notebook. You can read notes on the original columns, plus the ones that haven't yet been collected
