Incenter centers known to the ancient Greeks, and the only one that does not in general lie on the Euler line. It is the first listed center, X(1), in Clark Kimberling's Encyclopedia of Triangle Centers, and the identity element of the multiplicative group of triangle centers. For polygons with more than three sides, the incenter only exists for tangential polygons—those that have an incircle that is tangent to each side of the polygon. In this case the incenter is the center of this circle and is equally distant from all sides. It is a theorem in Euclidean geometry that the three
Rectification (geometry) 2r{p,q...}. For polyhedra, a birectification creates a dual polyhedron. Higher degree rectifications can be constructed for higher dimensional polytopes. In general an n-rectification truncates "n-faces" to points. If an n-polytope is (n-1)-rectified, its facets are reduced to points and the polytope becomes its dual. There are different equivalent notations for each degree of rectification. These tables show the names by dimension and the two type of facets for each. Facets are edges, represented as {2}. Facets are regular polygons. Facets are regular or rectified polyhedra. Facets are regular or rectified 4-polytopes. Rectification (geometry) In Euclidean geometry, rectification or complete-truncation is
