The Centroid or point of intersection of the midpoints.
Given any three points, this will construct the midpoints, and connect to the opposite vertex to create the Centroid.
The circumcenter is the point of intersection of lines that are perpendicular bisectors of each side.
Given three point, this will construct the perpendicular bisectors, and the intersection to create the Circumcenter.
The circumcircle is the circle that passes through the vertex points of the triangle.
Given three points, this will construct the circumcircle.
A triangle that has three sides all in which are equal in size.
Given A segment, this will construct a triangle with all sides of equal length.
The line that passes through the orthocenter, the circumcenter, then centroid and is the center for the nine point circle
Given three points, this will construct a Euler Line.
The point of intersection of the altitudes of a triangle.
Given three points, this will construct in incenter to the triangle.
The circle with radius length of incenter to any intersection point on the triangle from the
line containing the altitude
The two sides of a triangle will be equal in length
Given on side of a triangle and a base, this application will construct an isosceles triangle.
The triangle that in formed from the midpoints of each side of the given triangle.
Given a side to a triangle, this application will find the medial triangle.
The Circle constructed from the orthocenter, the midpoints of the sides and the foot of the lines that contain the altitudes.
Given a Triangle, this application will find the nine point circle constructed from the restrictions above.
The center of the circle in a nine point circle
Given a triangle, this will construct the center to the nine point circle.
A triangle formed from the intersection of the lines that contained the altitudes and the sides the intersect.
Given a triangle this application will construct the orthic triangle.
The point of intersection of the lines that contain the altitudes of the triangles.
Given a triangle, this application will find the orthocenter of the triangle.
The mid points of the segments that are contained by the altitudes
Given a triangle, this application will find the orthocenter triangle.
Given triangle DEF and a point not on the triangle, projected to triangle DEF.
This application will construct the pedal triangle to triangle DEF.
A Square with Four equilateral triangles of side length equivalent to the length of the square drawn from each side of the square.
Given two points, this will construct the square stellation
A four sided polygon with all sides of equal length
Given two points this will construct a square.

Given the side of a Pentagon
This application will find a regular hexagon to include the given side.
Given the radius of a circle
This application will find a regular octagon to include the given radius.
Given the side of a octagon
This application will find a regular octagon to include the given side.
Given a line of an arbitrary length,
This application will find a trisection of that line.
