Pedal TriangleGiven a point , the pedal triangle of is the Triangle whose Vertices are the feet ofthe perpendiculars from to the side lines. The pedal triangle of a Triangle with Trilinear Coordinates and angles , , and has Vertices with Trilinear Coordinates
The third pedal triangle is similar to the original one. This theorem can be generalized to: the th pedal -gon of any -gon is similar to the original one. It is also true that
