cevian  

Definition

  • In geometry, a cevian is a line segment which joins a vertex of a triangle to a point on the opposite side of the triangle. Medians and angle bisectors are special cases of cevians. The name "cevian" comes from the Italian mathematician Giovanni Ceva, who proved a well-known theorem about cevians which also bears his name.
