Euler line the Euler line is parallel to an acute triangle's side "BC" if and only if formula_43 The locus of the centroids of equilateral triangles inscribed in a given triangle is formed by two lines perpendicular to the given triangle's Euler line. In a right triangle, the Euler line coincides with the median to the hypotenuse—that is, it goes through both the right-angled vertex and the midpoint of the side opposite that vertex. This is because the right triangle's orthocenter, the intersection of its altitudes, falls on the right-angled vertex while its circumcenter, the intersection of its perpendicular bisectors of sides,
Automedian triangle much more recent. The problem of characterizing automedian triangles was posed in the late 19th century in the "Educational Times" (in French) by Joseph Jean Baptiste Neuberg, and solved there with the formula 2"a" = "b" + "c" by William John Greenstreet. Apart from the trivial cases of equilateral triangles, the triangle with side lengths 17, 13, and 7 is the smallest (by area or perimeter) automedian triangle with integer side lengths. There is only one automedian right triangle, the triangle with side lengths proportional to 1, , and . This triangle is the second triangle in the spiral of
