Assignment 5: Script Tools
The following tools require users to draw a triangle.
Then, using the tool, the following points, circles, or additional triangles will be appropriately added to your construction.
Centroid - the point of concurrency of the medians of a triangle.
Orthocenter - the point of concurrency of the altitudes of a triangle.
Circumcenter - the point of concurrency of the perpendicular bisectors of a triangle.
Circumcircle - a circle that passes through all three vertices of a triangle.
Incenter - the point of concurrency of the angle bisectors in a triangle.
Incircle - a circle inscribed in a triangle
Orthic Triangle - the triangle formed by connecting the feet of the altitudes of a triangle
Orthocenter, Mid-segment triangle - the triangle formed by connecting the vertices of the midpoints of the segments that run from the orthocenter to the vertices.
Medial Triangle - the triangle formed by connecting the midpoints of the sides of a triangle
Pedal Triangle - the triangle formed by selecting a point in the plane, constructing perpendicular lines from that point to the three sides of the triangle, and connecting the 3 points of intersection with the triangle
9 point circle - a circle with 9 special points, each being the vertex of a special type of triangle
The following tools require users to draw a segment(s).
Then, using the tool, the following points or polygons will be appropriately added to your construction.
Equilateral Triangle, given one side length
Divide a segment into the golden ratio
Construct a square for a given side length
Isosceles triangle, given a base and an altitude
The following tools require users to draw a segment and an angle.
Then, using the tool, the following locus will be appropriately added to your construction.
