In this article we consider two triangles: one inscribed in another. We prove that the area of the central triangle is at least the harmonic mean of the areas of corner triangles. We give two proofs of this theorem. One is based on Rigby inequality and the other is based on the known algebraic inequality, to which we bring a new, geometric, proof.…

There are many problems whose solution requires proof that a quadrilateral is cyclic. The main reason for writing this paper is to offer a number of new tools for proving that a particular quadrilateral is cyclic, thus expanding the present knowledge base and ensuring that investigators in mathematics and teachers of mathematics have at their…

Students use GeoGebra to explore the mathematical relations among different radii of circles in a triangle (circumcircle, incircle, excircles) and the sides and other segments in the triangle. The more formal mathematical development of the relations that follows the explorations is based on known geometrical properties, different formulas…

Solution of problems in mathematics, and in particular in the field of Euclidean geometry is in many senses a form of artisanship that can be developed so that in certain cases brief and unexpected solutions may be obtained, which would bring out aesthetically pleasing mathematical traits. We present four geometric tasks for which different proofs…
