The mid-arc triangle is the triangle whose vertices consist of the intersections of the internal angle bisectors with the incircle, where the points of intersection nearest the vertices are chosen (Kimberling 1998, p. 160).
It has trilinear vertex matrix
where , , and .
The incircle is the circumcircle of the mid-arc triangle.
The following table gives the centers of the mid-arc triangle in terms of the centers of the reference triangle for Kimberling centers with .
