Bell, A. W. – Mathematics Teaching, 1971
The first of three articles showing how inductively-obtained results in transformation geometry may be organized into a deductive system. This article discusses two approaches to enlargement (dilatation), one using coordinates and the other using synthetic methods. (MM)

Shilgalis, Thomas W.; Benson, Carol T. – Mathematics Teacher, 2001
Investigates the idea of the center of mass of a polygon and illustrates centroids of polygons. Connects physics, mathematics, and technology to produces results that serve to generalize the notion of centroid to polygons other than triangles. (KHR)

Austin, Joe Dan – Mathematics Teacher, 1998
Summarizes and extends a well-known geometry theorem that states that any triangle inscribed in a circle with one side of the triangle a diameter of the circle, is a right triangle. (ASK)

Stols, G. H. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2005
This paper explores a geometrical way to sketch graphs of the general quadratic in two variables with Geometer's Sketchpad. To do this, a geometric procedure as described by De Temple is used, bearing in mind that this general quadratic equation (1) represents all the possible conics (conics sections), and the fact that five points (no three of…
