CEVA, MENELAUS, STEWART AND CARNOT THEOREMS AND INEQUALITIES RELATED TO TRIANGLES
Abstract
This paper studies four fundamental theorems in Euclidean triangle geometry: Ceva’s Theorem, Menelaus’ Theorem, Stewart’s Theorem, and Carnot’s Theorem. In addition, key inequalities related to triangles are analyzed. The research highlights their interconnections and applications in geometric problem-solving. These classical results provide essential tools for proving concurrence, collinearity, and metric relationships in triangles.
