Langley’s Adventitious Angles the first of the three unsolved problems listed by Rigby in his 1978 paper. Langley’s Adventitious Angles Langley’s Adventitious Angles is a mathematical problem posed by Edward Mann Langley in "The Mathematical Gazette" in 1922. In its original form the problem was as follows: formula_1 is an isosceles triangle. A solution was developed by James Mercer in 1923. This solution involves drawing one additional line, and then making repeated use of the fact that the internal angles of a triangle add up to 180° to prove that several triangles drawn within the large triangle are all isosceles. Many other solutions
Incircle and excircles of a triangle any vertex to the incircle tangency on either adjacent side is half the sum of the vertex's adjacent sides minus half the opposite side. Thus for example for vertex "B" and adjacent tangencies "T" and "T", The incircle radius is no greater than one-ninth the sum of the altitudes. The squared distance from the incenter "I" to the circumcenter "O" is given by and the distance from the incenter to the center "N" of the nine point circle is The incenter lies in the medial triangle (whose vertices are the midpoints of the sides). The radius of the incircle is
