5G-s-P1   5G-Newton Lines Crosspoint


Given a pentagon P1P2P3P4P5.

We denote the intersection of P1P3 and P2P5 by P12.

Similarly P23, P34, P45 and P51 are defined.

The 5 Newton lines of P1P12P2P4, P2P23P3P5, P3P34P4P1, P4P45P5P2 and P5P51P1P3 have a common point 5G-s-P1.

See [34], Seiichi Kirikami, QFG#760.

There is another way to construct this point:

Given a pentagon P1P2P3P4P5.

We denote the intersection of P1P3 and P2P5 by P12.

Similarly P23, P34, P45 and P51 are defined.

We denote the midpoints of PiPi+1 by Mi+3

We denote the midpoints of PiPi+2 by mi. The lines Mimi concur in 5G-s-P1.

See [34], Seiichi Kirikami, QFG#726.

Note that the Newton Line in the left figure coincides with the lines Mimi in the right figure.

Coordinates:

Let P1,P2,P3,P4,P5 have these barycentric coordinates:

P1=(0:1:0), P2=(0:0:1), P3=(1:0:0), P4=(p:q:r) and P5=(P:Q:R).

Then 5G-s-P1 has coordinates: (p (2 P + Q) + P (q + r) : P q + p Q + q (2 Q + R) : P r + q R)

Calculation Seiichi Kirikami. See [34], QFG#750.
