    It makes me smile each times she says "it better". I don’t know her but I can imagine how good she is as a funny lovely teacher for kids. Thank you. Love it.

    Lovely proof with excellent quality of both presentation and production.

    at a glance, after watching the rotation animations in the beginning, I'd say every triangle is equilateral, but not in the literal numberphile sense... more like... it describes a plane, and it's "eccentricity" is the amount that plane has been rotated/skewed/squished/whatever before projecting onto 2D. Likewise, Euler's line appears to be perpendicular to the triangle's original plane. My intuition is to try to prove something via linear algebra re: the orthogonality of euler's line to the triangle in some basis.

    There is one thing which is difficult to grasp : I mean how can you say that the distance between the vertex and orthocentre will get halved...i mean this is quite intuitive but is there some very short proof(or even a prompt reply) which makes me to believe that.....
    P.S. awesome video by the way (Y)

    And there is one more thing I am curious to know about : actually i was trying to prove it by myself but i was unable to do so...is there some other easy proof which does not require the medial triangle and is easy for a beginner to come up with?...Thanks a lot in advance.

    May I please know what program you used for the interactive triangles? It would be a great help if I used them and tried it out on my own!

    • @kcmathhelp
      @kcmathhelp  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I used a program called Geogebra (free!) to do it. On the calculator, you want to go into the geometry mode and get rid of the grid and axes in the settings.

    What about the equilateral triangle? In an equilateral triangle, the orthocentre, the centroid, and the circumcentre all coincide. If three points coincide, are they collinear?

    • @kcmathhelp
      @kcmathhelp  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      What a great question! I can safely say that they are not noncollinear (sorry for the double negative). Since they coincide, there are actually an infinite number of lines that would pass through all of them simultaneously. It would seem that the term collinear loses its usefulness in describing the relationship between the centroid, circumcenter, and orthocenter of an equilateral triangle...

      @@kcmathhelp Yes, you’re right. The collinearity of two or more points implies the uniqueness of the line that contains the points. Thanks.
