On Wilkinson's Method of treating the Nine-Points Circle, with Generalizations
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 January 2009
Extract
Ever since I first became acquainted with Wilkinson's method of establishing the existence of the nine-points circle of a triangle (see Mackay's “Euclid,” Appendix to Bk. IV., Prop. 2, the lettering of which I have followed in the first three sections of this paper), its simple and fundamental character has pleased me. I propose to point out first that this method yields probably the most elementary proof of the concurrence of the perpendiculars from the vertices, and then, after restating the investigation of the nine-points circle, to sketch some generalizations.
