The key concept behind the formula you give is barycentric coordinates that are very ill-explained there. I advise you to see them explained in a plain manner in the answer I gave (already 2 years ago) to this question : math.stackexchange.com/q/2106662 | |

| Nov 14, 2018 at 20:01 | comment | added | amd | I’m not sure that there’s any particular geometric insight attached to your rearrangement of the formula, but I’d be quite interested in seeing one. You’ve basically taken a particular set of slices through the matrix in the determinant form of the equation of a circle through three fixed points. | |
