Does this plane geometry theorem have a name (well-known)?
Consider three circles $(O_1)$, $(O_2)$, $(O_3)$. Denote the homothetic center of $\{$$(O_1)$, $(O_2)$$\}$ by $A$, the homothetic center of $\{$$(O_2)$, $(O_3)$$\}$ by $B$. Let $C$, $D$ be two points ...

Is this a new result about hexagon?
Let a hexagon $AB'CA'BC'$ let $AB' \cap A'B=C''$, $BC' \cap B'C = A''$, $CA' \cap C'A = B''$ then three conditions as follows equivalent:
Three lines $AA', BB', CC'$ are concurrent (let the point of ...

Another Butterfly theorem — Conway like circle
Have You seen these result as follows before?
In Figure 1: $AA'=BB'=tAB$; $CC'=DD'=tCD$, where t is real number then $ABCD$ is a cyclic quadrilateral iff $A'B'C'D'$ is a cyclic quadrilateral.
In the ...
