Lemoine point


The Lemoine point of a triangleMathworldPlanetmath, is the intersectionMathworldPlanetmath point of its three symmediansMathworldPlanetmath. (That is, the isogonal conjugateMathworldPlanetmath of the centroid).

It is related with the Gergonne pointMathworldPlanetmath by the following result:
On any triangle A⁢B⁢C, the Lemoine point of its Gergonne triangle is the Gergonne point of A⁢B⁢C.

In the picture, the blue lines are the medians, intersecting an the centroid G. The green lines are anglee bisectorsMathworldPlanetmath intersecting at the incentre I and the red lines are symmedians. The symmedians intersect at Lemoine point L.
