  2. ~is said to be one of the most-often rediscovered results in mathematics ~earliest appearance of this theorem was said to be is an 1825 article by Dr. W. Rutherford in "The Ladies Diary“. Although he was probably not the first discoverer. HISTORY ~The theorem is named after Napoleon Bonaparte, although he was not the first to discover it but apparently found it independently and so it bears his name. http://www.mathpages.com/home/kmath270/kmath270.htm

  3. Napolean's Theorem States: If we construct equilateral triangles on the sides of any triangle - all outward or all inward - the centers of those equilateral triangles themselves form an equilateral triangle. http://www.mathpages.com/HOME/kmath270/kmath270.htm

  4. Napoleon's Theorem is very similar to that of Van Aubel’s theorem which states that: Given a quadrilateral, place a square outwardly on each side, and connect the centers of opposite squares. Then the two lines are of equal length and cross at a right angle. http://mathworld.wolfram.com/vanAubelsTheorem.html
