Mandart inellipse


In geometry, the Mandart inellipse of a triangle is an ellipse inscribed within the triangle, tangent to its sides at the contact points of its excircles. The Mandart inellipse is named after H. Mandart, who studied it in two papers published in the late 19th century.

Parameters

As an inconic, the Mandart inellipse is described by the parameters
where a, b, and c are sides of the given triangle.

Related points

The center of the Mandart inellipse is the mittenpunkt of the triangle. The three lines connecting the triangle vertices to the opposite points of tangency all meet in a single point, the Nagel point of the triangle.
