Abstract

This article discusses the modification of the Japanese on Heptagon. The proof is done using Carnot’s Theorem, the modification of Ptolemy’s Theorem, and the Japanese Theorem. The result obtained is the proof using Carnot;s Theorem is more effective. So, the sum of the radius length of the incircle of the triangles with diagonal lines formed from all points is the same.

Keywords

Japanese Theorem, Carnot’s Theorem, modification of Ptolemy’s Theorem.
