Dear "ben_goss_ro" (= grobber at MathLinks?), ... This puzzles me a bit. In fact, the lines MM_1, NN_1, PP_1 do bisect the perimeter of triangle ABC, but the...

Dear friends! Sa = (b^2+c^2-a^2)/2 = 2ScotA (S - area of triangle ABC), Sb and Sc are defined in the same way. q= y^2 (x+z)^2; Q = y^2 (Sa*x^2 + Sc*z^2) - b^2...
