Triangles whose sides form an arithmetic progression
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 08 October 2020
Extract
This article is motivated by, and is meant as a supplement to, the recent paper [1]. That paper proves three geometric characterisations of triangles whose sides are in arithmetic progression, or equivalently triangles in which one of the sides is the arithmetic mean of the other two. More precisely, it gives three geometric contexts in which such triangles appear. In this Article, we supply references for the results in [1] and we provide more proofs of these results. We also add more contexts in which such triangles appear, and we raise related issues for future work. We hope that this will be a source of problems for training for, and for including in, mathematical competitions.
