Lemoine's problem
Definition(s)
-
In mathematics, Lemoine's problem is a certain construction problem in elementary plane geometry posed by the French mathematician Émile Lemoine (1840–1912) in 1868. The problem was published as Question 864 in Nouvelles Annales de Mathématiques (Series 2, Volume 7 (1868), p 191). The chief interest in the problem is that a discussion of the solution of the problem by Ludwig Kiepert published in Nouvelles Annales de Mathématiques (series 2, Volume 8 (1869), pp 40–42) contained a description of a hyperbola which is now known as the Kiepert hyperbola.
