Exeter point
In geometry, the Exeter point is a special point associated with a plane triangle. It is a triangle center and is designated as X(22) in Clark Kimberling's Encyclopedia of Triangle Centers. This was discovered in a computers-in-mathematics workshop at Phillips Exeter Academy in 1986. This is one of the recent triangle centers, unlike the classical triangle centers like centroid, incenter, and Steiner point.
