چکیده

We group triangles into families based on three parameters: the distance between the circumcenter O and the centroid G , the circumradius, and the measure of angle ∠GOA where A is one vertex. We focus on the family of triangles which allows ∠GOA to vary and fixes the other two parameters. By construction, this grouping produces triangles which share the same Euler line. Perhaps unexpectedly, if we examine the family’s locus of a triangle center known as the symmedian point, we find that it always forms an arc of a circle centered at a specified point on the Euler line.

Survey of FecXL Locus of BMP15 Gene and Growth Hormone (GH) Gene and Their Effects on Lambing Rate in Zel Sheep

The GH gene and BMP15 gene have been used as candidate genes for ­marker-assisted selection in different livestock species. Random blood samples were obtained from 180 Zel sheep breed to study genetic polymorphism of these genes. DNA was extracted from blood samples and a 365 bp fragment from the exon V of the ovine growth hormone gene and a 312 bp region from exon II of BMP15 gene were amplifi...

Primitive Heronian Triangles With Integer Inradius and Exradii

It is well known that primitive Pythagorean triangles have integer inradius and exradii. We investigate the generalization to primitive Heronian triangles. In particular, we study the special cases of isosceles triangles and triangles with sides in arithmetic progression. We also give two families of primitive Heronian triangles, one decomposable and one indecomposable, which have integer inrad...

The Locations of Triangle Centers

The orthocentroidal circle of a non-equilateral triangle has diameter GH where G is the centroid and H is the orthocenter. We show that the Fermat, Gergonne and symmedian points are confined to, and range freely over the interior disk punctured at its center. The Mittenpunkt is also confined to and ranges freely over another punctured disk, and the second Fermat point is confined to and ranges ...

Report of VNTR with 13 Repeats Linked to Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Locus in Unaffected Members of Two PKU Families

Phenylketonuria (PKU) is one of the most common metabolic inborn diseases caused by mutations in the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene. This gene is linked to a variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR) region which is a polymorphic marker that facilitates the implementation of prenatal diagnosis and carrier screening. In this study, VNTR with 13 repeats that has not been reported previously ...

Similar Triangles, Another Trace of the Golden Ratio

In this paper we investigate similar triangles which are not congruent but have two pair congruent sides. We show that greatest lower bound of values for similarity ratio of such triangles is golden ratio. For right triangles, we prove that the supremum of values for similarity ratio is the square root of the golden ratio.
