Angle:Below we have the BÂC angle. This name tells that A is the vertex. You can move the points A, B and C to see what happens with the angle's measure. |
Angle Bisection:Move around the points to see what happens to the bisection for different angle's measures. |
Barycenter:It is the crossing point of the three medians of the triangle. You can move the figure below to see what happens to the barycenter when you move around A, B and C. |
Bisector:Bisector is a region whose points are equidistant (same distance) to two points. In the drawing we see that points A and B have a bisector. Move the points and see what happens with the bisector. |
Circumcenter:It is the crossing point of the three bisectrix of the triangle's segments. It is the center of the Circunscribing Circumference. |
Circumference:It is used to mark distances in constructions. Move the points to see how you can control it! |
Incenter:It is the crossing point of the triangle's angle bisections. Move the points to see where the Incenter goes when you stretch the triangle! |
Median:Move the triangle to see where the median goes! |
