Meaning of Euler line | Babel Free

Definitions

1. A line that, for a given triangle, passes through several important points, including the circumcentre, orthocentre and centroid; an analogous line for certain other 2- and 3-dimensional geometric figures.
2. An Eulerian path, a looped path through a graph that passes along every edge exactly once.

“Since the line joining the circumcenter and orthocenter of a triangle is its Euler line, we see that this parabola is the envelope of the Euler lines of the triangles Aᵢ.”

“The Euler line in the preceding figure is OH. N, the center of the nine-point circle, not only lies on the Euler line, but is also its midpoint.”

“2011, Derek Allan Holton, A Second Step to Mathematical Olympiad Problems, World Scientific Publishing, Mathematical Olympiad Series, Volume 7, page 57, Show that the perpendicular bisector of LM in Figure 2.5 meets the Euler line halfway between the orthocentre and the circumcentre of ΔABC.”

“Theorem 2.1 A connected graph with even local degrees has an Euler line.”

“In defining an Euler graph, some authors drop the requirement that the Euler line be closed.”

“Euler lines mainly deal with the nature of connectivity in graphs. The concept of an Euler line is used to solve several puzzles and games.[…]A closed walk running through every edge of the graph G exactly once is called an Euler line.”
