Triangle Geometry
Geometric Entities in a 3-Element Framework
EPG describes items constructed from a reference system consisting of n points and/or n lines, where n ≥ 3.
When n = 3, this corresponds to the triangular case, where the reference system is based on either three points or three lines. This case has been extensively documented in the literature.
Three primary sources are:
ETC — Encyclopedia of Triangle Centers by Clark Kimberling
CTC — Catalogue of Triangle Cubics by Bernard Gibert
MathWorld — Mathematical reference work by Eric W. Weisstein
Within EPG, triangle-related information will primarily be referenced through these established sources. The following table summarizes the generic EPG-style codings for triangle-based elements:
