The Convex Coordinates of the Symmedian Point
Boyd, J. N.; Raychowdhury, P. N.
Mathematics and Computer Education, v40 n1 p51-56 Win 2006
In this note, we recall the convex (or barycentric) coordinates of the points of a closed triangular region. We relate the convex and trilinear coordinates of the interior points of the triangular region. We use the relationship between convex and trilinear coordinates to calculate the convex coordinates of the symmedian point of the triangular region. (Contains 3 figures.)
