Pentagon centroid-locus conjecture for parabola-inscribed Poncelet families
Pentagon centroid-locus conjecture for parabola-inscribed Poncelet families
Let be a parabola of focal distance , and let be a focus-centered circle of radius such that they admit a Poncelet family of inscribed pentagons. Pentagon centroid-locus conjecture. Over this family, the loci of the vertex, perimeter, and area centroids are parabolas coaxial with . This is an experimentally observed claim for the pentagon family; no proof or resolution is supplied.
