Kosnita's theorem explained
In Euclidean geometry, Kosnita's theorem is a property of certain circles associated with an arbitrary triangle.
Let
be an arbitrary triangle,
its circumcenter and
are the circumcenters of three triangles
,
, and
respectively. The theorem claims that the three
straight lines
,
, and
are concurrent. This result was established by the Romanian mathematician Cezar Coşniţă (1910-1962).

Clark Kimberling's list. This theorem is a special case of Dao's theorem on six circumcenters associated with a cyclic hexagon in.
