...Let D, E, and F be the feet of the perpendicular line drawn from a point P on the plane △ABC to sides BC, CA, and AB. If P is on the circumference of the circumscribing circle of △ABC (the circle that passes through three points A, B, and C), then D, E, and F are on the same line (figure). This line is called P's Simson line with respect to △ABC, and is called Simson's theorem after R. Simson (1687-1768), who is said to have discovered the above fact. The converse of Simson's theorem also holds. If H is the orthocenter of △ABC, P's Simson line bisects the line segment PH. ... *Some of the terminology that mentions "Simson, R." is listed below.

…△ABCの平面上の1点Pから辺BC,CA,ABへ下ろした垂線の足をD,E,Fとするとき,Pが△ABCの外接円(3点A,B,Cを通る円)の周上にあれば,D,E,Fは同一直線上にある(図)。この直線を△ABCに関するPのシムソン線といい,上記の事実を発見者といわれるシムソンR.Simson(1687‐1768)にちなんでシムソンの定理と呼んでいる。なお,シムソンの定理の逆も成り立つ。△ABCの垂心をHとするとき,Pのシムソン線は線分PHを2等分する。… ※「Simson,R.」について言及している用語解説の一部を掲載しています。 出典|株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について | 情報 |
