the name of the Euler line
T
triangle
The Euler line Ell of triangle T is the line on which the orthocenter, centroid and circumcenter lie.
For a detailed description of the Euler line, use the routine detail (e.g., detail(Ell))
Note that the routine only works if the vertices of triangle T are known.
The command with(geometry,EulerLine) allows the use of the abbreviated form of this command.
