My first wiki

Check it out and try to improve my first wiki. Its 'Triangles-Orthocentres'. Suggestions and advices are welcome.

This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

When posting on Brilliant:

Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

Thanks! That is a great start!

Can you add details of what is expected for the IIT? I know that they test on Orthocenter, but it is not clear to me which properties they expect you to be aware of.

they ask problems based on relation between orthocenter,circumcenter and centroid with a mix of other topics like straight line or circles and so on

The properties which i mentioned are must. And specifically what we call "Solutions of triangles". Various distances like ortho to circumcentre, incentre to circumcentre , and cos rule ,sine rule, napiers analogy , triangles related to various circles , and all this includes typical geometry and algebra,geometry related to complex no.s. IIT is notorious for its changing patterns of exam and types and level of questions so nothing can be said what they test but these types of properties are must

They also test conic section i.e parabola,circles ,hyperbola,ellipse, straight lines. Their reflection properties are extremely helpful.
