Sastry, K. R. S. – Mathematics and Computer Education, 2007
This paper takes a known point from Brocard geometry, a known result from the geometry of the equilateral triangle, and bring in Euler's [empty set] function. It then demonstrates how to obtain new Brocard Geometric number theory results from them. Furthermore, this paper aims to determine a [triangle]ABC whose Crelle-Brocard Point [omega]…

Ecker, Michael W. – Mathematics and Computer Education, 2006
The author has always been fascinated by the title identity. It's charming and simple, as well as easy to believe after pressing a few calculator keys. Several fine proofs have appeared in the literature, including several proofs without words. His own earlier proof is trigonometric, and he has often been dissatisfied with not being able to…

Dana-Picard, Thierry – Mathematics and Computer Education, 2005
An integral, either definite or improper, cannot always be computed by elementary methods, such as reversed usage of differentiation formulae. Graphical properties, in particular symmetries, can be useful to compute the integral, via an auxiliary computation. We present graded examples, then prove a general result. (Contains 4 figures.)
