This example demonstrates the relationships between special points and lines in a triangle. By dragging the triangle's vertices, different triangles can be formed. Key mathematical concepts include centroid, circumcircle, incircle, median, and orthocenter. GeoGebra commands such as Polygon, AngularBisector, Midpoint, and Line are used in construction. Suitable for middle school and above students to learn geometric construction.
