Tangent Spheres and Triangle Centers (2001)
Abstract:
9.47> XX= 1 2 (-a + d + f ), YY = 1 2 (a - d + f ), ZZ= 1 2 (a + d - f ), XY =-b, XZ =-c, YZ=-e. Note that YY + ZZ = a, XX+ ZZ = d , XX+ YY = f . Then observe that every (necessarily real) eigenvalue of a real symmetric matrix is associated with a real eigenvector. This note is dedicated to Gus Watts (1916--2000), a retired aeronautical engineer, who died shortly after crafting for the author a tetrahedron of solid poplar through which holes were bored by a sp
