The Conway Circle Theorem
Posted: Fri Mar 13, 2026 4:17 pm
Triangles are fundamental in the history of Mathematics. The first proposition in Euclid's Elements (written around 300 BC) was about how to construct an equilateral triangle.
The Pythagorean Theorem relating the lengths of the sides of a right triangle is one of the most famous theorems in mathematics. It's from around 500 BC.
Given the centrality and antiquity of the study of triangles, it is surprising that a new beautiful theorem relating to triangles was still waiting to be discovered in the 21 century: Conway's Circle Theorem.
Now here's a question for those who love studying the alphanumeric and geometric patterns in Scripture - Can you find any way this theorem relates to our studies?
