Hexagon on the circumcircle of an acute triangle at the six points (including three triangle vertices) where the extended altitudes of the triangle meet the circumcircle, then the area of the hexagon is twice the area of the triangle. Let ABCDEF be a hexagon formed by six tangent lines of a conic section. Then Brianchon's theorem states that the three main diagonals AD, BE, and CF intersect at a single point. In a hexagon that is tangential to a circle and that has consecutive sides "a", "b", "c", "d", "e", and "f", If an equilateral triangle is constructed externally on each
Distance from a point to a plane the point on a plane formula_33 closest to an arbitrary point formula_34 is formula_2 given by where and the distance from the point to the plane is Distance from a point to a plane In Euclidean space, the point on a plane formula_1 that is closest to the origin has the Cartesian coordinates formula_2, where The distance between the origin and point formula_2 is formula_5. If what is desired is the distance from a point not at the origin to the nearest point on a plane, this can be found by a change of variables that moves the origin to
