- Mandart inellipse
-
In geometry, the Mandart inellipse of a triangle is the inconic having parameters
where a, b, and c are sides of the triangle. It is named after H. Mandart, who studied it in two papers published in the late 19th century.[1][2]
The center of the Mandart inellipse is the mittenpunkt of the triangle. The three lines connecting the triangle vertices to the opposite points of tangency all meet in a single point, the Nagel point of the triangle.[1]
