Abstract

It is well known that in a given triangle a one-fold infinity of triangles may be inscribed similar to a given triangle This becomes at once obvious on consideration of the converse problem; for we may circumscribe about a given triangle (A), a triangle similar to a second triangle (B), and having its sides parallel to the sides of (B).
