+% \subsection{Checking the date of a sufficiently recent \texttt{curve2e}
+% package}
+%^^A%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+% This package has been already identified by the commands extracted
+% by the |docstrip| package, during the |.dtx| file compilation.
+% Therefore we start providing the |\GetFileInfo| in case the package
+% is used outside a “documented \TeX\ source”; we just provide the
+% definition from the |ltxdoc| class code.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\makeatletter
+\providecommand\GetFileInfo{}
+\renewcommand\GetFileInfo[1]{%
+ \def\filename{#1}%
+ \def\@tempb##1 v.##2 ##3\relax##4\relax{%
+ \def\filedate{##1}\def\fileversion{##2}\def\fileinfo{##3}}%
+ \edef\@tempa{\csname ver@#1\endcsname}%
+ \expandafter\@tempb\@tempa\relax? ? \relax\relax}
+% \end{macrocode}
+%
+% But in order to make the file date comparison for loading a suitable
+% version of |curve2e| we need to strip away its date dash signs,
+% so we define the |\cleanfiledate| macro that defines a |\FileDate| macro
+% with a purely numerical string, suitable for numerical comparisons;
+% if the fetched class file is so old that the date is not in the ISO
+% format (for example with slashes instead of dashes) the macro fails
+% and the interpreter comparison algorithm produces \TeX\ error messages.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\def\cleanfiledate#1-#2-#3!{\unless\ifx#3\empty
+\edef\FileDate{#1#2#3}\else\unless\ifx#2\empty
+\edef\FileDate{#1#2}\else\edef\FileDate{#1}\fi\fi}
+% \end{macrocode}
+% In any case, if the test checks that the |curve2e| file date is too old;
+% it warns the user with an emphasised error message on the console,
+% loading this |euclideangeometry| package is stopped and the whole
+% job aborts. The emphasised error message appears like this:
+%\begin{flushleft}\ttfamily\obeylines

+%Package curve2e too old
+%Be sure that your TeX installation is complete and up to date
+%*************************************************************
+%Input of euclideangeometry is stopped and job aborted
+%*************************************************************
+%\end{flushleft}
+% This message should be sufficiently strong in order to avoid using
+% this package with a vintage version of \TeXLive or Mik\TeX.

+% \subsection{Service macros}
+%^^A%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+% The following macros are useful for typesetting the manual; but they
+% might be useful also for the final user; they mostly define commands
+% that classify the various entities of the programming language with
+% (generally different) font families, series and shapes; but the commands
+% that receive the “name of an argument” enclose this name between math
+% angle brackets.

+% The next commands are defined in the |babel-italian| module for |babel|;
+% |\ped| introduces a subscript in math mode, but the command may be used
+% also in text mode; the same holds true also for |\ap| that introduces
+% a superscript. |\unit| is a shorthand for attaching the units of measure
+% in math upright roman font, with an unbreakable space between the measure
+% and its units; |\sigla| is the Italian equivalent of |\acronym|, that
+% avoids any conflict with other packages; |\iu| (alias|\gei|) typesets
+% the imaginary unit in roman font according to the ISO regulations;
+% |\eu| defines the roman type “e”, the Neper number, as a math operator;
+% we all know that “e” is not an operator, but it is used very often as
+% the base of an exponential, therefore, in math mode it is better to
+% leave the necessary space before and after it, without any space between
+% it and its exponent.
+% \begin{macrocode}

+% \end{macrocode}
+%
+% The next code is used to typeset the logo of \Ars logo, and the logo
+% of \LyX; the other command |\GuIT| typesets equally well the \GuIT logo;
+% if necessary the |\RequirePackage| macro loads the |xspace| package;
+% therefore these macros do not require any special terminator of the
+% control sequence name, because the |\xspace| command takes care of the
+% necessary space; this command avoids inserting any space if macros are
+% followed by any reasonable sign different form a space, such as
+% punctuation marks, parentheses, quotation marks, and so on.

+% The following macros |\usecs| and |\whilenum| allow the use the internal
+% \LaTeX control sequence names that contain a |@| sign. They are not so
+% useful in this package, but they might be useful for the end user.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\providecommand*\usecs[1]{\csname#1\endcsname}
+\providecommand*\whilenum[2]{\usecs{@whilenum}#1\do{#2}}
+% \end{macrocode}
+% Accordingly the following two macros, and their English aliases, allow
+% to delay the output of a (possibly floating) object to a page of the
+% desired parity; they are not infallible, because the the |\afterpage|
+% command defined by package |afterpage| (loaded if necessary) operates
+% on the typesetting program output routine and the object to be delayed
+% might be lost on the way, or might get delayed too much; these facts
+% take place very seldom, but are not impossible, the solution is to move
+% back several paragraphs the command with is argument.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\RequirePackage{afterpage}
+\providecommand\supaginapari[1]{%
+ \afterpage{%
+ \ifodd\value{page}\expandafter\@firstoftwo
+ \else\expandafter\@secondoftwo

+% \end{macrocode}
+% The following \LaTeX related logos are provided so as to make them
+% coherent with the smart final space we have discussed above. The real
+% difference is that it is necessary to use tue |etoolbox| facilities;
+% therefore the package is (possibly) loaded. With it we add at the end
+% of their original definition the |\xspace| command. But what is the
+% “original definition”? Of course |\TeX| and |\LaTeX| macros are defined
+% within the \LaTeX kernel, but the user might have loaded other packages
+% that have redefined them; therefore these patches are applied only at
+% the preamble end, so if other definitions were provided by other
+% packages loaded in the preamble, such redefinitions are patched.
+% Only |\XeLaTeX| is completely redefined, because the other existing
+% definitions work correctly only with OpenType fonts; with Type~1 fonts
+% and oblique fonts (italics, slanted, etc.) the reversed “E” generally
+% is inclined in the wrong direction; by rotating it, instead of
+% reflecting it, the “E” might not be the best, but al least slants in
+% the right direction.

+% The following command is useful to output two column floats when
+% typesetting in |twocolumn| mode.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\renewcommand\dbltopfraction{1.}
+% \end{macrocode}
+% This apparently useless command becomes useful to separate a font
+% selection command or the |\item| command from the following text so
+% as to allow hyphenation in what follows; it is just a very innocent
+% dirty trick, but it works.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\def\hz{\hskip0pt}
+% \end{macrocode}
+% Here we have a command that allows to display some framed code; it is
+% usable also to display the syntax of some commands; and when doing this
+% action the full range of service macros at the beginning of this section
+% play the best of their role. The English aliases for the opening and
+% closing environments are also provided. Attention: do not use |\\|
+% commands to specify new lines, unless you want to produce empty/blank
+% lines; within this environment the source code “end of line” characters
+% are not treated as spaces, but are actually executed according to their
+% name.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\newenvironment{ttsintassi}{\begin{lrbox}{0}
+\minipage{\dimexpr\linewidth-2\fboxrule-2\fboxsep}\ttfamily\obeylines}%
+{\endminipage\end{lrbox}\center\fbox{\box0}\endcenter}
+\let\ttsyntax\ttsintassi \let\endttsyntax\endttsintassi
+% \end{macrocode}
+% The following macro probably will migrate to |curve2e|; meanwhile
+% this redefinition is useful in order to save some input and to make
+% a more flexible macro. We used it virtually in every picture we
+% inserted in the user manual of this package; of course the user does
+% not need to have any drawing superimposed onto a red grid. Actually
+% the grid is useful while drawing; when the image is complete, the
+% grid command may be deleted or its line commented out. The purpose
+% of this macro is to avoid the |\put| command to place the grid; and
+% since its reference point in the original definition is arbitrary,
+% the connection with real coordinates is very small and might become
+% confusing or of little help.
+% Now the syntax is the following:
+%\begin{ttsyntax}
+%\cs(GraphGrid)\parg{reference point or dimensions}\parg{overall dimensions}
+%\end{ttsyntax}
+% where the second argument is optional; if it is missing, the first
+% argument contains the \meta{overall dimensions}, otherwise it
+% contains the lower left corner coordinate that represent the
+% \meta{reference point} that an internal |\put| command will use
+% to place the grid; if no \meta{reference point} is specified, the
+% reference point is \texttt{0,0}, and the grid is |\put| with its
+% lower left corner in the origin of the |picture| coordinates.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+
+\unless\ifcsname Gr@phGrid\endcsname
+\let\originalGraphGrid\GraphGrid
+\RenewDocumentCommand\GraphGrid{r() d()}{%
+\IfValueTF{#2}{\put(#1){\originalGraphGrid(#2)}}%
+ {\put(0,0){\originalGraphGrid(#1)}}}\fi
+% \end{macrocode}
+%^^A%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+%\subsection{Labelling}
+%^^A%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+%
+% While doing any graphical geometrical drawing it is necessary to label
+% points, lines, angles and other such items. Non measurable labels should
+% be in upright sans serif font, according to the ISO regulations, but here
+% we are dealing witt point identified by macros the contain their
+% (cartesian or polar) coordinates that very often are both labels
+% and math variables.
+%
+% Here we provide a versatile macro that can do several things. Its name
+% is |\Pbox| and it produces a box containing the label in math format. By
+% default the point label is typeset with the math font variant produced
+% by command |\mathsf|, but the macro is sufficiently versatile to allow
+% other settings; It accepts several optional arguments, therefore it syntax is particular:
+%\begin{ttsyntax}
+%\cs{Pbox}\parg{coordinates}\oarg{alignment}\marg{label}\oarg{diameter}\meta{$\star$}\aarg{angle}
+%\end{ttsyntax}
+% where \meta{coordinates} are the coordinates where to possibly set a
+% black dot with the specified \meta{diameter}; in any case it is the
+% reference point of the \meta{label}; the \meta{alignment} is formed by
+% the usual letters \texttt{t, b, c, l, r} that can be paired in a
+% coherent way (for example the couple \texttt{tb} is evidently
+% incoherent, as well as \texttt{lr}), but in absence of this optional
+% specification, the couple \texttt{cc} is assumed; most often than
+% not, the label position becomes such that when the user reviews the
+% document drafts, s/he understands immediately that s/he forgot to specify
+% some reasonable \meta{alignment} codes. Think of the \meta{alignment}
+% letters as the position of the reference point with respect to the
+% the \meta{label} optical center. The optional \meta{angle} argument
+% produces a rotation of the whole label by that angle; it may be used
+% in several circumstances, especially when the label is just text, to
+% produce, for example, a sideways legend. It is useful also when the
+% labels are produced within a rotated box, in order to counterrotate them.
+%
+% The optional asterisk draws a frame around the \emph{label}. Notice that
+% the separator between the visible or the invisible frame and the box
+% contents varies according the the fact the the \meta{alignment}
+% specification contains just one or two letter codes; this is useful,
+% because the diagonal position of the label should be optically equal
+% to the gap that exists between the reference point and the \meta{label}
+% box.
+%
+% If the \meta{diameter} is zero, no dot is drawn, the whole \meta{label}
+% is typeset with the |\mathit| math font; otherwise only the first symbol
+% of a math expression si typeset in sans serif. The presence of subscripts
+% makes the labels appear more distant from their reference point; the same
+% is true when math symbols, even without subscripts, are used, because
+% of the oblique nature of the math letters alphabet.
+%
+% If some text has to be printed as a label, it suffices to surround it
+% with dollar signs, that switch back to text mode when the default mode
+% is the math one. With this kind of textual labels it might be convenient
+% to use the optional asterisk to frame the text.
+% \begin{macrocode}

+% The following command, to be used always within a group, or a
+% environment or inside a box, works only with piecewise continuously
+% scalable font collection, such as, for example, the Latin Modern
+% fonts, or with continuously scalable fonts, such as, for example,
+% the Times ones. They let the operator select, for the scope of the
+% command ,any size, even fractional so as to fine adjust the text
+% width in the space allowed for it; it is particularly useful with
+% the monospaced fonts, that forbid hyphenation, and therefore cannot
+% be adjusted to the current line width.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\DeclareRobustCommand\setfontsize[2][1.2]{%
+ \linespread{#1}\fontsize{#2}{#2}\selectfont}
+% \end{macrocode}
+% With OpenType fonts there should not be any problems even with math
+% fonts; with Type~1 fonts the only scalable fonts I know of, are the
+% LibertinusMath fonts, usable through the LibertinusT1math package, are
+% also the only ones that have 8~bit encoded math fonts (256
+% glyph fonts), while the standard default Type~1 math fonts are just
+% 7~bit encoded (128 glyphs fonts).
+%
+% Another useful labelling command is |Zbox|; this command is an
+% evolution of a command that I been using for years in several
+% documents of mine. It uses some general text, not necessarily
+% connected to a particular point of the |picture| environment,
+% as a legend; It can draw short text as a simple horizontal box,
+% and longer texts as a vertical box of specified width and height
+%
+% Is syntax is the following:
+%\begin{ttsyntax}
+%\cs{Zbox}\parg{position}\parg(dimensions)\oarg{alignment}\marg{text}
+%\end{ttsyntax}
+% where \meta{position} is where the reference point of the box has
+% to be put in the picture; \meta{dimensions} are optional; if not
+% specified, the box is a horizontal one, and it is as wide as its
+% contents; if it is specified, it must be a comma separated list
+% of two integer or fractional numbers that are the width and the
+% height of the box; if the height is specified as zero, the width
+% specifies a horizontal box of that width; \meta{alignment} is optional
+% and is formed by one or two coherent letter codes from the usual set
+% \texttt{t, b, c, l, r}; if the \meta{alignment} is absent, the
+% default alignment letters are \texttt{bl}, i.e. the box reference
+% point is the bottom left corner; \meta{text} contains general text,
+% even containing some math.

+% it has an English alias |Example|, but we suggest to use the Italian
+% name, because it is safer in order to avoid conflicts with other packages;
+% this environment is very handy to typeset a stretch of code side by
+% side its typeset result obtained by executing it; it has advantages and
+% disadvantages, though. A similar environment was used to show the
+% examples in the \emph{The \LaTeX Companion}; another similar environment
+% may be used from the |tcolorbox| package (by T.F.~Sturm, read its
+% documentation by using the terminal command |texdoc tcolorbox|)
+% environment |tcolorbox| and using the keyword |sidebyside| among the
+% options; package |fancyvrb| also offers a similar environment.
+% The critical disadvantage is that that you cannot use any of these
+% environments, not even this |Esempio| one, when typesetting a
+% documented \TeX file, such as the one you are reading now. In facts
+% the |.dtx| file has all text lines that start with a comment character,
+% and the code parts, to be output to a |.sty|, or |.cls|, or whatever
+% other file used by the \TeX system to format documents, are explicitly
+% marked with the special delimiters \verb*|% \begin{macrocode}| and
+% \verb*|% \end{macrocode}|.
+%
+% Therefore with those packages and with this |Esempio| environment
+% the code you want to show appears with all lines with a |%| at the
+% beginning. This certainly does not help the description of a software
+% and this is the very reason why this package has a separate
+% |euclideangeometry-man| manual typeset with the |article| class.
+%
+% Nevertheless this environment makes use of the facilities of the
+% |verbatim| environment.

+% We do not know if the following macro |\polyvector| may be useful for
+% euclidean geometry constructions, but it may be useful in block
+% diagrams; it is simply a polyline where the last segment is a geometrical
+% vector. As in polyline the number of recursions is done until the last
+% specified coordinate pair; recognising that it is the last one, instead
+% of drawing a segment, the macro draws a vector.

+\def\EUGpolyvector(#1){%

+ {\VECTOR(\EUGpreviouspoint)(#1)}%
+}
+% \end{macrocode}
+%^^A%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+% \subsection{Processing lines and segments}
+%^^A%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+%
+% The next macros are functional for the geometric constructions we are
+% going to make: finding the intersection of lines or segments,
+% finding the lengths and arguments of segments, directions, distances,
+% distance of a point from a line or a segment, the symmetrical
+% point of a another one specified with respect to a given center of
+% symmetry; the axes of segments, the solutions of the relationship
+% between the semi axes of an ellipse and the semi focal distance,
+% and so on.
+%
+% Most of these commands have delimited arguments; the delimiters
+% may be the usual parentheses, but they may be keywords; many
+% commands contain the keyword \texttt{to}, not necessarily the
+% last one; the arguments before such keyword may be entered as
+% ordered comma separated numerical couples, or comma separated
+% macros the containing scalar values; or they may be macros that
+% contain the ordered couples representing vectors or directions;
+% they all may be in cartesian or polar form. Remember that such
+% ordered couples are complex numbers, representable by
+% vectors applied to the origin of the axes; therefore sometimes it is
+% necessary that the underlying commands execute some vector
+% differences so as to work with generic vectors.
+%
+% On the opposite the output values, i.e. the argument after that
+% \texttt{to} keyword, should be tokens that can receive a definition,
+% in general macros, to which the user should assign a mnemonic name;
+% s/he should use such macros for further computations or for drawing
+% commands.
+%
+% The first and principal command is |\IntersectionOfLines| and
+% it has the following syntax:
+%\begin{ttsyntax}
+%\cs{IntersectionOfLines}\parg{point1}\parg{dir1}and\parg{point2}\parg{dir2}to\meta{crossing}
+%\end{ttsyntax}
+% where \meta{point1} and \meta{dir1} are respectively a point of the
+% first line and its \emph{direction}, not a second point, but the
+% \emph{direction} — it is important to stress this point; similarly
+% for the second line; the output is stored in
+% the macro that identifies the \meta{crossing} point. The directions
+% do not need to be expressed with unit vectors, but the lines must not
+% be parallel or anti parallel (equal directions or differing by
+% $180^\circ$); the macro contains a test that checks this anomalous
+% situation because an intersection at infinity or too far away
+% ($2^{14}-1$ typographical points, approximately 5,758\,m) is of no
+% interest; in case, no warning message is issued, the result is
+% put to \texttt{0,0}, and the remaining computations become nonsense.
+% It is a very unusual situation and I never encountered~it;
+% nevertheless\dots

+% \end{macrocode}
+%
+% The |IntersectionOfSegments| macro is similar but in input it
+% contains the end points of two segments: internally it uses
+% |\IntersectionOfLines| and to do so it has to determine the
+% directions of both segments. The syntax is the following:
+%\begin{ttsyntax}
+%\cs{IntersectionOfSegments}\parg{point11}\parg{point12}and\parg{point21}\parg{point22}
+%\qquad to\meta{crossing}
+%\end{ttsyntax}
+% The \meta{crossing} point might fall outside one or both segments.
+% It is up to the users to find out if the result is meaningful
+% or nonsense. Two non parallel lines are infinitely long in both
+% directions and any \meta{crossing} point is acceptable; with
+% segments the situation might become nonsense.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+
+\def\IntersectionOfSegments(#1)(#2)and(#3)(#4)to#5{%
+\SubVect#1from#2to\IoSvectu \DirOfVect\IoSvectu to\DirIoSVecu
+\SubVect#3from#4to\IoSvectd \DirOfVect\IoSvectd to\DirIoSVecd
+\IntersectionOfLines(#1)(\DirIoSVecu)and(#3)(\DirIoSVecd)to#5\ignorespaces}
+% \end{macrocode}
+%
+% An application of the above intersections is formed by the next
+% two macros; they find the axes of a couple of sides of a triangle
+% and use their base point and direction to identify two lines the
+% intersection of which is the circumcenter; the distance of one
+% base point from the circumcenter is the radius of the circumcircle
+% that can be drawn with the usual macros. We have to describe
+% the macros |\AxisOf| and |CircleWithCenter| and we will do it in
+% a little while. Meanwhile the syntax of the whole macro is the
+% following:
+%\begin{ttsyntax}
+%\cs{ThreePointCircle}\meta{$\star$}\parg{vetex1}\parg{vertex2}\parg{vertex3}
+%\end{ttsyntax}
+% where the three vertices are the three points where the circle
+% must pass, but they identify also a triangle. Its side axes
+% intersect in one point that by construction is at the same
+% distance from the three vertices, therefore it is the center of
+% the circle that passes through the three vertices. A sub product
+% of the computations is the macro |\C| that contains the center
+% coordinates. If the optional asterisk is used the whole drawing
+% is executed, while if it is missing, only the |\C| macro remains
+% available but the user is responsible to save/copy its value
+% into another macro; for this reason another macro should be more
+% easy to use; its syntax is the following:
+%\begin{ttsyntax}
+%\cs{ThreePointCircleCenter}\parg{vetex1}\parg{vertex2}\parg{vertex3}
+%\qquad to\meta{center}
+%\end{ttsyntax}
+% where the vertices have the same meaning, but\meta{center} is
+% the user chosen macro that contains the center coordinates.
+%
+% \begin{macrocode}

+% \end{macrocode}
+%
+% There are some useful commands that help creating |picture|
+% diagrams in an easier way; for example one of the above described
+% commands internally uses |\CircleWithCenter|. It is well known
+% that the native |picture| command |\circle| requires the
+% specification of the diameter but many |euclideangeometry|
+% commands already get the distance of two points, or the magnitude
+% of a segment, or similar objects that may be used as a radius, rather
+% than the diameter; why should we not have macros that simultaneously
+% compute the require diameter and draw the circle. Here there are two
+% such macros; they are similar to one another but their names differ in
+% capitalisation, but also in the way they use the available input
+% information. The syntax is the following:
+%\begin{ttsyntax}
+%\cs{CircleWithCenter}\meta{center} Radius\meta{Radius}
+%\cs{Circlewithcenter}\meta{center} radius\meta{radius}
+%\end{ttsyntax}
+% where in both cases \meta{center} is a vector/ordered couple
+% that points to the circle center. On the contrary \meta{Radius}
+% is a vector obtained through previous calculations, while
+% \meta{radius} is a scalar containing a previously calculated length.

+%
+% As announced, here we have a macro to compute the axis of a segment;
+% given two points $P_1$ and $P_2$, for example the end points of a
+% segment, or better the end point of the vector that goes from
+% $P_1$ to $P_2$, the macro determines the segment middle point and
+% a second point the lays on the perpendicular at a distance equal to half
+% the first two points distance; this second point lays at the left of
+% vector $P_2-P_1$, therefore it is important to select the right initial
+% vector, in order to have the second axis point on the desired side.
+%\begin{ttsyntax}
+%\cs{AxisOf}\meta{P1} and\meta{P2} to\meta{Axis1}\meta{Axis2}

+% Macros |\SegmentCenter| and |\MiddlePointOf| are alias to one another;

+%^^A%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+% \subsection{Triangle special points}
+%^^A%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+% Here we have the macros to find the special points on a triangle
+% side that are the “foot” of special lines from one vertex to the
+% opposite side. We already described the circumcircle and the
+% circumcenter, but that is a separate case, because the circumcenter
+% is not the intersection of special lines from one vertex to the
+% opposite base. The special lines we are interested in here are
+% the height, the median, and the bisector
+% The macros have the same aspect |\Triangle...Base|, where the dots
+% are replaced with each of the (capitalised) special line names.
+% Their syntaxes are therefore very similar:
+%\begin{ttsyntax}
+%\cs{TriangleMedianBase}\meta{vertex} on\meta{base1} and\meta{base2} to\meta{M}
+%\cs{TriangleHeightBase}\meta{vertex} on\meta{base1} and\meta{base2} to\meta{H}
+%\cs{TrinagleBisectorBase}\meta{vertex} on\meta{base1} and\meta{base2} to\meta{B}
+%\end{ttsyntax}
+% where \meta{vertex} contains one of the vertices coordinates, and
+% \meta{base1} and \meta{base2} are the end points of the side
+% opposite to that triangle vertex; \meta{M}, meta{H}, and \meta{B}
+% are the intersections of these special lines from the \meta{vertex}
+% to the opposite side; in order, they are the foot of the median,
+% the foot of the height; the foot of the bisector. The construction
+% of the median foot \meta{M} is trivial because this foot is the base
+% center; the construction of the height foot is a little more
+% complicated, because it is necessary to find the exact direction
+% of the perpendicular from the vertex to the base in order to
+% find the intersection \meta{H}; the construction of the bisector
+% base implies finding the exact direction of the two sides starting at the
+% \meta{vertex}, and taking the mean direction, which is trivial if
+% polar coordinates are used; at this point the bisector line is completely
+% determined and the intersection with the base line \meta{B} is
+% easily obtained.

+% Having defined the previous macros, it becomes very easy to create
+% the macros to find the\emph{barycenter}, the \emph{orthocenter},
+% the\emph{incenter}; for the \emph{circumcenter} and the
+% \emph{circumcircle} we have already solved the question with the
+% |\ThreePointCircleCenter| and the |ThreePointCircle| macros; for
+% homogeneity, we create here their aliases with the same form as
+% the new “center” macros. Actually, for the “circle” macros,
+% once the center is known, there is no problem with the circumcircle,
+% while for the incircle it suffices a macro to determine the distance
+% of the incenter from one of the triangle sides; such a macro is going to
+% be defined in a little while; it is more general than simply to
+% determine the radius of the incircle.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+
+\let\TriangleCircumcenter\ThreePointCircleCenter
+\let\TriangleCircummcircle\ThreePointCircle
+% \end{macrocode}
+%
+% The other “center” macros are the following; they all consist
+% in finding two of the specific triangle lines, and finding their
+% intersection. Therefore for the barycenter we intersect two
+% median lines; for the orthocenter we intersect two height lines;
+% for the incenter we intersect two bisector lines;

+%\subsection{Other specific service macros}\label{ssec:ellissi}
+%^^A%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+%
+% And here it comes the general macro to determine the distance
+% of a point from a segment or from a line that contains that
+% segment; it may be used for determining the radius of the
+% incenter, but it is going to be used also for other purposes.
+% Its syntax is the following:
+%\begin{ttsyntax}
+%\cs{DistanceOfPoint}\meta{point} from\parg{P1}\parg{P2}to\meta{distance}
+%\end{ttsyntax}
+% where \meta{point} is a generic point; \meta{P1} and \meta{P2}
+% are a segment end points, or two generic points on a line;
+% \meta{distance} is the macro that receives the computed scalar
+% distance value.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+
+\def\DistanceOfPoint#1from(#2)(#3)to#4{%
+\SubVect#2from#3to\Base \MultVect\Base by0,1to\AB
+\IntersectionOfLines(#1)(\AB)and(#2)(\Base)to\D
+\SubVect#1from\D to\D
+\ModOfVect\D to#4}
+% \end{macrocode}
+% The following macros are specific to solve other little geometrical
+% problems that arise when creating more complicated constructions.
+%
+% The |\AxisFromAxisAndFocus| is an unhappy name that describes
+% the solution of an ellipse relationship between the ellipse axes
+% and the focal distance
+%\begin{equation} a^2 = b^2 + c^2\label{equ:axes-foci}\end{equation}
+% This relation exists between the “semi” values, but it works equally
+% well with the full values. Evidently $a$ is the largest quantity and
+% refers to the main ellipse axis, the one that passes through the two
+% foci; $b$ refers to the other shorter ellipse axis and $c$ refers to
+% the foci; $b$ and $c$ are smaller than $a$, but there is no specific
+% relationship among these two quantities It goes by itself that
+% these statements apply to a veritable ellipse, not to a circle,
+% that is the special case where $b=a$ and $c=0$.
+%
+% Since to solve the above equation we have one unknown and two
+% known data, but we do not know what they represent, we have to
+% assume some relationship exist between the known data; therefore
+% if $a$ is known it must be entered as the first macro argument;
+% otherwise $a$ is the unknown and the first Argument has to be the
+% smaller one among $b$ and $c$. Since $b$ and$c$ may come from other
+% computation the user has a dilemma: which is the smaller one?
+% But this is a wrong approach; of course if the user knows which is the
+% smaller, s/he can use the macro by entering the data in the proper
+% order; but the user is determining the main axis, therefore it better
+% that s/he uses directly the second macro |\MainAxisFromAxisAndFocus|
+% that directly computes $a$ disregarding the order with which $b$
+% and $c$ are entered; the macro name suggests to enter $b$ first
+% and $c$ second, but it is irrelevant thanks to the sum properties.
+% Summarising:
+%\begin{itemize}[noitemsep]
+%\item if the main axis is known use |\AxisFromAxisAndFocus| by
+% entering the main axis as the first argument; otherwise
+%\item ~
+% \begin{itemize}
+% \item if it is known which is smaller among $b$ and $c$, it is
+% possible to use |\AxisFromAxisAndFocus| by entering the smaller
+% one as the first argument; otherwise
+% \item determine the main axis by using |\MainAxisFromAxisAndFocus|
+% \end{itemize}
+%\end{itemize}
+% Their syntaxes of these two commands are basically the following:
+%\begin{ttsyntax}
+%\cs{AxisFromAxisAndFocus}\meta{main axis} and\meta{axis or focus} to\meta{focus or axis}
+%\cs{MainAxisFromAxisAndFocus}\meta{axis or focus} and\meta{focus or axis} to\meta{main axis}
+%\end{ttsyntax}
+% but it is possible to enter the data in a different way with the
+% first command; the described syntax is the suggested one.
+% Evidently \meta{axis or focus} and \meta{focus or axis} imply
+% that if you specify the focus in one of the two, you have to
+% specify the axis in the other one.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+
+\def\AxisFromAxisAndFocus#1and#2to#3{%
+\fptest{abs(#1)>abs(#2)}%
+ {\edef#3{\fpeval{sqrt(#1**2-#2**2)}}}%
+ {\edef#3{\fpeval{sqrt(#2**2+#1**2)}}}}
+
+\def\MainAxisFromAxisAndFocus#1and#2to#3{%
+\edef#3{\fpeval{sqrt(#2**2+#1**2)}}}
+% \end{macrocode}
+% The following macros allow to determine some scalar values relative
+% to segments; in the second one the order of the segment end points is
+% important, because the computed argument refers to the vector $P_2 - P_1$.
+% Their syntaxes are the following:
+%\begin{ttsyntax}
+%\cs{SegmentLength}\parg{P1}\parg{P2}to\meta{length}
+%\cs{SegmentArg}\parg{P1}\parg{P2}to\meta{argument}
+%\end{ttsyntax}
+% Both \meta{length} and \meta{argument} are macros that contain
+% scalar quantities; the argument is in the range
+% $-180^\circ <\Phi \leq +180^\circ$.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+
+\def\SegmentLength(#1)(#2)to#3{\SubVect#1from#2to\Segm
+\ModOfVect\Segm to#3}
+
+\def\SegmentArg(#1)(#2)to#3{\SubVect#1from#2to\Segm
+\GetCoord(\Segm)\SegmX\SegmY\edef#3{\fpeval{atand(\SegmY,\SegmX)}}%
+\ignorespaces}
+% \end{macrocode}
+%
+% In the following sections we need some transformations, in
+% particular the affine shear one. The macros we define here are
+% not for general use, but are specific for the purpose of this package.
+%
+% The fist macro shears a segment, or better a vector that goes
+% from point $P_1$ to point $P_2$ with a horizontal shear
+% factor/angle $\alpha$; the origin of the vector does not vary
+% and remains $P_1$ but the arrow tip of the vector is moved
+% according to the shear factor; in practice this shearing macro
+% is valid only for vectors that start from any point laying on
+% the $x$ axis. The shear factor $\alpha$ is the angle of the
+% \emph{clock wise} rotation vector operator by which the vertical
+% coordinate lines get rotated with respect to their original position.
+% The syntax is the following:
+%\begin{ttsyntax}
+%\cs{ShearVect}\parg{P1}\parg{P2}by\meta{shear} to\meta{vector}
+%\end{ttsyntax}
+% where \meta{P1} and \meta{P2} are the initial and final points of the
+% vector to be sheared with the \meta{shear} angle, and the result is put
+% in the output \meta{vector}

+% The following macro to draw a possibly sheared ellipse appears
+% complicated; but in reality it is not much different from a
+% “normal” ellipse drawing command. In oder to do the whole work
+% the ellipse center is set in the origin of the axes, therefore
+% it is not altered by the shearing process; everything else is
+% horizontally sheared by the shear angle $\alpha$. In particular the
+% 12~nodes and control point that are required by the Bézier
+% splines that draw the four ellipse quarters. It is this multitude
+% of shearing commands that makes the macro mach longer and apparently
+% complicated.
+% The syntax is the following:
+%\begin{ttsyntax}
+%\cs{Sellisse}\meta{$\star$}\marg{h-axis}\marg{v-axis}\oarg{shear}
+% \end{ttsyntax}
+% where the optional asterisk is used to mark and label the Bézier
+% spline nodes and the control points of the possibly sheared ellipse;
+% without the asterisk the ellipse is drawn without any “decoration”;
+% the optional \meta{shear} is as usual the angle of the sheared
+% vertical coordinate lines; its default value is zero.

+% \subsection{Regular polygons and special ellipses}

+%
+% We finally arrive to more complex macros used to create special
+% polygons and special ellipses.
+%
+%^^A%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+% \subsubsection{Regular polygons}
+%^^A%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+% Regular polygons are not that special; it is possible to draw them
+% by using the |\multiput| or |\xmultiput| commands, but a single
+% command that does everything by itself with more built in
+% functionalities is much handier. The new command |\RegPolygon|
+% has the following syntax:
+%\begin{ttsyntax}
+%\cs{RegPoligon}\meta{$\star$}\parg{center}\marg{radius}\marg{number}\oarg{angle}\aarg{settings}
+%\end{ttsyntax}
+% where \meta{$\star$} is an optional asterisk; its presence means
+% that the polygon interior is filled, instead of the polygon
+% contour being stroked; the \meta{center} specification of the
+% polygon is optional; if it is omitted, the polygon center goes
+% to the origin of the |picture| coordinates; \meta{radius} is the
+% mandatory radius of the circumscribed circle, or, in other words,
+% the distance of each polygon vertex form the \meta{center}; the
+% mandatory \meta{number} is an integer that specifies the number of
+% polygon sides; the first vertex that is being drawn by this
+% command, has an angle of zero degrees with respect to the
+% \meta{center}; if a different initial \meta{angle} different from
+% zero is desired, it is specified through this optional argument;
+% possibly the angle bracketed optional \meta{setting} parameter
+% may be used to specify, for example, the line thickness for the
+% contour, and/or the color for the polygon contour or interior.
+% See the documentation \file{euclideangeometry-man.pdf} for more
+% information and usage examples.

+%^^A%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+% \subsubsection{The Steiner ellipse}
+%^^A%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+% The construction of the Steiner ellipse is very peculiar; it is
+% almost intuitive that any triangle has infinitely many internal
+% tangent ellipses; therefore it is necessary to state some other
+% constraints to find one specific ellipse out from this unlimited set.
+%
+% One such ellipse is the Steiner one, obtained by adding the
+% constraint that the ellipse be tangent to the median points
+% of the triangle sides. But one thing is the definition, and
+% another totally different one is to find the parameters of
+% such an ellipse; and working with ruler and compass, it is
+% necessary to find a procedure to draw such an ellipse.
+%
+% The construction described here and implemented with the
+% |SteinerEllipse| macro is based on the following steps, each
+% one requiring the use of some of the commands and/or
+% transformations described in the previous sections.
+%\begin{enumerate}[noitemsep]
+%^^A
+%\item Given a generic triangle (the coordinates of its three
+% vertices) it is not necessary, but it is clearer to explain,
+% if the triangle is shifted and rotated so as to have one of
+% its sides horizontal, and the third vertex in the upper part
+% of the |picture| drawing. So we first perform the initial
+% shift and rotation and memorise the parameters of this
+% transformation so that, at the end of the procedure, we can
+% put back the triangle (and its Steiner ellipse) in its
+% original position. Let us call this shifted and rotated triangle
+% with the symbol $T_0$.
+%^^A
+%\item We transform $T_0$ with an affine shear transformation into an
+% isosceles triangle $T_1$ that has the same base and the same
+% height as $T_0$. We memorise the shear “angle” so as to proceed
+% to an inverse transformation when the following steps are completed:
+% let be $\alpha$ this shear angle; geometrically it represents the
+% angle of the sheared vertical coordinate lines with respect
+% to the original vertical position.\label{enum:shear}
+%^^A
+%\item With another affine vertical scaling transformation we transform $T_1$ into an equilateral triangle $T_2$; the ratio of the vertical
+% transformation equals the ratio between the $T_2$ to the
+% $T_1$ heights; we memorise this ratio for the reverse transformation
+% at the end of the procedure.\label{enum:ratio}
+%^^A
+%\item The Steiner ellipse of the equilateral triangle $T_2$ is its
+% incircle. We are almost done; we just have to proceed to the
+% inverse transformations; getting back from $T_2$ to $T_1$ first implies
+% transforming the incircle of $T_2$ into an ellipse with its
+% vertical axis scaled by the inverse ratio memorised in
+% step~\ref{enum:ratio}.
+%^^A
+%\item The second inverse transformation by the shear angle is easy
+% with the passage from $T_1$ to $T_0$, but it would be more difficult
+% for transforming the ellipse into the sheared ellipse. We have already
+% defined the |\Sellipse| and the |\XSellipse| macros that may take
+% care of the ellipse shear transformation; we already memorised the
+% shear angle in step~\ref{enum:shear}, therefore the whole procedure,
+% except for putting back the triangle, is almost done.
+%^^A
+%\item Eventually we perform the last shifting and rotating transformation
+% and the whole construction is completed.
+%^^A
+%\end{enumerate}
+%
+% The new macro Steiner ellipse has therefore the following syntax:
+%\begin{ttsyntax}
+%\cs{SteinerEllipse}\meta{$\star$}\parg{P1}\parg{P2}\parg{P3}\oarg{diameter}
+%\end{ttsyntax}
+% where \meta{P1}, \meta{P2}, \meta{P3} are the vertices of the
+% triangle; \meta{$\star$} is an optional asterisk; without it
+% the maro draws only the final result, that contains only the
+% given triangle and its Steiner ellipse; on the opposite, if the asterisk
+% is used the whole construction from $T_0$ to its Steiner ellipse
+% is drawn; the labelling of points is done with little dots of
+% the default \meta{diameter} or a specified value; by default it is a 1\,pt
+% diameter, but sometimes it would be better to use a slightly
+% larger value (remembering that 1\,mm — about three points —
+% is already too much).
+% Please refer to the documentation file \file{euclideangeometry-man.pdf}
+% for usage examples and suggestions.

+%^^A%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+%\subsubsection{The ellipse that is internally tangent to a triangle while one of its foci is prescribed}
+%^^A%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+% We now are going to tackle another problem. As we said before, any
+% triangle has an infinite set of internally tangent circles, unless
+% some further constraint is specified.
+%
+% Another problem of this kind is the determination and geometrical
+% construction of an internally tangent ellipse when one focus is
+% specified; of course since the whole ellipse is totally internal
+% to the triangle, we assume that the user has already verified
+% that the coordinates of the focus fall inside the triangle.
+% We are not going to check this feature in place of the user;
+% after all, if the user draws the triangle within a |picture| image,
+% together with the chosen focus, is suffices a glance to verify that
+% such focus lays within the triangle perimeter.
+%
+% The geometrical construction is quite complicated, but it is
+% described in a paper by Estevão V.~Candia on \TB~2019 \textbf{40}(3);
+% it consists of the following steps.
+%\begin{enumerate}[noitemsep]
+%^^A
+%\item Suppose you have specified a triangle by means of its three
+% vertices, and a point inside it to play the role of a focus; it
+% is necessary to find the other focus and the main axis length in
+% order to have a full description of the ellipse.
+%^^A
+%\item To do so, it is necessary to find the focus three symmetrical
+% points with respect to the three sides.
+%^^A
+%\item The center of the three point circle through these symmetrical
+% points is the second focus.
+%^^A
+%\item The lines that join the second focus to the three symmetrical
+% points of the first focus, intersect the triangle sides in three
+% points that result to be the tangency points of the ellipse to the
+% triangle.
+%^^A
+%\item Chosen one of these tangency points and computing the sum of its
+% distances from both foci, the total length of the ellipsis main axis
+% is found.
+%^^A
+%\item Knowing both foci, the total inter focal distance is found,
+% therefore equation~\eqref{equ:axes-foci} allows to find the other
+% axis length.
+%^^A
+%\item The inclination of the focal segment gives us the the rotation
+% to which the ellipse is subject, and the middle point of such
+% segment gives the ellipse center.
+%^^A
+%\item At this point we have all the necessary elements to draw
+% the ellipse.
+%^^A
+%\end{enumerate}
+%
+% We need another little macro to find the symmetrical points;
+% if the focus $F$ and its symmetrical point $P$ with respect
+% to a side/segment, the intersection of such segment $F-P$ with
+% the side is the segment middle point $M$; from this property
+% we derive the formula $P= 2M -F$. Now $M$ is also the
+% intersection of the line passing through $F$ and perpendicular
+% to the side. Therefore it is particularly simple to compute,
+% but its better to have available a macro that does the whole
+% work; here it is, but it assumes the the center of symmetry is
+% already known:
+% \begin{macrocode}
+
+\def\SymmetricalPointOf#1respect#2to#3{\ScaleVect#2by2to\Segm
+\SubVect#1from\Segm to#3\ignorespaces}
+% \end{macrocode}
+% And its syntax is the following:
+%\begin{ttsyntax}
+%\cs{SymmetricalPointOf}\meta{focus} respect\meta{symmetry center}
+%\qquad to\meta{symmetrical point}
+%\end{ttsyntax}
+% where the argument names are self explanatory.
+%
+% The overall macro that executes all the passages described in
+% the above enumeration follows; the reader can easily recognise
+% the various steps, since the names of the macros are self
+% explanatory; the $G_i$ point names are the symmetrical ones
+% to the first focus $F$; the $M_i$ points are the centers of
+% symmetry; the $F'$ point is the second focus; the $T_i$ points
+% are the tangency points. The macro |\EllipseWithFOcus| has the
+% following syntax:
+%\begin{ttsyntax}
+%\cs{EllipseWithFocus}\meta{$\star$}\parg{P1}\parg{P2}\parg{P3}\parg{focus}
+%\end{ttsyntax}
+% where \meta{P1}, \meta{P2}, \meta{P3} are the triangle vertices
+% and \meta{focus} contains the first focus coordinates; the
+% optional asterisk, as usual, selects the construction steps
+% versus the final result: no asterisk, no construction steps.

+% \section{Comments on this package}
+%^^A%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+%
+% In general we found very comfortable to draw ellipses and
+% to define macros to draw not only such shapes or filled elliptical
+% areas, but also to create “legends” with coloured backgrounds and
+% borders; such applications found their way in other works.
+% But here we dealt with other geometrical problems. The accompanying
+% document |euclideangeometry-man.pdf| describes much clearly with
+% examples what you can do with the macros described in this package.
+% In facts, this file just describes the package macros, and it gives
+% some ideas on how to extend the ability of |curve2e| to draw geometrical
+% diagrams.
+% The users who would like to modify or to add some functionalities
+% are invited to do so; I will certainly acknowledge their contributions
+% and even add their names to the list of authors.
+%
+% As long as I can, I enjoy playing with \LaTeX and its wonderful
+% facilities; but, taking into consideration my age, I would invite
+% the users to consider the possibility of assuming the maintenance
+% of this package.
