Triangle and Circle Geometry

This group gathers theorems about triangles, circles, and the points, lines, and circles constructed from them, the largest and most classical family of results in plane geometry. It covers the special centers and circles associated with a triangle, including the nine-point circle, the Euler line theorems, and Morley's trisector theorem, the concurrence and collinearity theorems of Ceva, Menelaus, and Miquel, circle theorems such as Ptolemy's, the inscribed angle theorem, and the power of a point, and further classical identities relating a triangle's or cyclic polygon's sides, angles, and area.
