Lines with a given orthopole P
1) Let X, Y, Z be the points with
Simson line through P (construction 39).
2) The lines XY, YZ, ZX have P as
orthopole.
When there is only a point with Simson
line through P (X in the figure on the right):
1') Let Q be the isogonal of the
infinite point of the orthogonal to HP, H being the orthocenter.
2') The parallel from Q to the Simson
line of X cuts HP at R.
3) The perpendicular bisector between
Q and R has P as orthopole.
