EulerLine(Ell, T)

Parameters

Ell

-

the name of the Euler line

T

-

triangle

Description

• 

The Euler line Ell of triangle T is the line on which the orthocenter, centroid and circumcenter lie.

• 

For a detailed description of the Euler line, use the routine detail (e.g., detail(Ell))

• 

Note that the routine only works if the vertices of triangle T are known.

• 

The command with(geometry,EulerLine) allows the use of the abbreviated form of this command.
