Euler line

This article is a stub. Help us out by expanding it.

Let $ABC$ be a triangle, points $H, N, G, O, L$ as $\triangle ABC$ 's orthocenter, nine-point center, centroid, circumcenter, De Longchamps point respectively, then these points are collinear(regardless of $\triangle ABC$ 's shape). And the line passes through points $H, N, G, O, L$ is called as Euler line, which is named after Leonhard Euler.

An interesting property of distances between these points on the Euler line:

$OG:GN:NH\equiv2:1:3$

Construct an orthic triangle $\triangle H_A,H_B,H_C$ , then Euler lines of $\triangle AH_BH_C$ , $\triangle BH_CH_A$ , $\triangle CH_AH_B$ concur at $\triangle ABC$ 's nine-point center.
