NAPOLEON'S THEOREM . If equilateral triangles are erected externally on the sides of any triangle then their centers form an equilateral triangle called Napoleon triangle . The center of the Napoleon triangle coincides with the centroid of the original triangle
Move the vertices of the triangle and see how the picture changes.

Abstract The famous theorem of Napoleon was recently extended
to higher dimensions.
With the help of weighted vertices of an n-simplex T in
E n , n >= 2, we present a weighted
version of this generalized theorem, leading to a natural
configuration of (n-1)-speres corresponding with T by an
almost arbitrarily chosen point.
Besides the Euclidean point of view, also affine aspects of the
theorem become clear, and in addition a critical discussion on
the role of the Fermat-Tooicelli point in this framework is given. Keywords: Napoleon's Theorem, Torricelli's configuration Upload: Update: The author(s) agree, that this abstract may be stored as full text and distributed as such by abstracting services.

Napoleon's Theorem
If Equilateral Triangles are erected externally on the sides of any Triangle , then the centers form an Equilateral Triangle (the outer Napoleon Triangle ). Furthermore, the inner Napoleon Triangle is also Equilateral and the difference between the areas of the outer and inner Napoleon triangles equals the Area of the original Triangle See also Napoleon Points Napoleon Triangles

and the Napoleon Points
Napoleon's Theorem is the name popularly given to a theorem which states that if equilateral triangles are constructed on the three legs of any triangle, the centers of the three new triangles will also form an equilateral triangle. In the figure the original triangle is labeled A, B, C, and the centers of the three equilateral triangles are A', B', C'. If the segments from A to A', B to B', and C to C' are drawn they always intersect in a single point, called the First Napoleon Point. If the three equilateral triangles are drawn interior to the original triangle, the centers will still form an equilateral triangle, but the segments connecting the centers with the opposite vertices of the original triangle meet in a (usually) different point, called the 2nd Napoleon Point.
Although it is known that Napoleon had a keen interest in geometry, math historians seem unable to find evidence he really discovered the theorem. Here is a letter on the subject from Antreas P. Hatzipolakis, a real living Greek mathematician, to the Geometry Forum.
The early history of Napoleon's theorem and the Fermat points F, F' (which are also called isogonic centers of ABC) is summarized in Mackey [21], who traces the fact that LMN and L'M'N' are equilateral to 1825 to one Dr. W. Rutherford [27] and remarks that the result is probably older.

The theorem states that for any arbitrary triangle, if you construct an equilateral triangle on each edge, and join the centers of the incircles of these triangles, then the resulting triangle is equilateral. The theorem is named for, and supposedly discovered by, Napoleon Bonaparte, himself no stranger to tours de force.
    Take a triangle and draw a triangle on each of its sides
    We can make the subtended triangles equilateral simply by specifying congruence constraints. Start by making AC congruent to AF and AC congruent to FC… (Congruence is the second option on the Measurement Selection drop down button when two segments are selected.)
    We can follow the same procedure for the other two triangles:
    We have created the required equilateral triangles. Now for the incircles. We sketch the circles then set tangency constraints - three for each.
    Now let’s join the centers of these circles. Shading the resulting triangle makes it stand out from the cat’s cradle of lines and circles. If you’re not convinced that it is indeed equilateral - and why should you be, Napoleon was more famous for geopolitics than geometry - inspect its side lengths

    ABSTRACT
    If equilateral triangles are constructed outwards or inwards on the sides of any given triangle, the centroids of these triangles are the vertices of an equilateral triangle. In elementary Euclidean geometry this result is known as Napoleon's Theorem. In this paper we adapt the foregoing construction to certain classes of spherical triangles and use a CAS to determine various values of s,t with the properties given above.

Written: Jan. 4, 1998 Thanks to Rene Descartes all plane geometry is routine in principle, and thanks to computer algebra, it is also routine in practice. However, it is still a challenge to write Maple code that takes as few characters as possible.
