Euler Line and AutoCAD – Something Mathy and not Civily

Ok, this has absolutely nothing to do with Civil 3D, civil engineering, and just a little bit about AutoCAD.

Anyways, I watched this cool video by Numberphile (it’s a YouTube channel that deals with numbers and math – or “maths” if your from outside the U.S.).

If you enjoyed it, go subscribe, it’s a great channel!

Anyways, I decided to try this out in AutoCAD and created a parametric drawing that shows this capability. If you would like to try it out yourself, you can download it HERE.

The white lines represent the triangle, the red lines are the medicenter, the yellow lines are the circumcenter, the green lines are the orthocenter, and the blue line goes from the orthocenter to the circumcenter passing through the medicenter.
