For a Nonzero Real Number and a Triangle , swing Line Segment about the vertex towards vertex through an Angle . Call the line along the rotated segment . Construct a second line by rotating Line Segment about vertex through an Angle . Now denote the point of intersection of and by . Similarly, construct and . The Triangle having these points as vertices is called the Hofstadter -triangle. Kimberling (1994) showed that the Hofstadter triangle is perspective to , and calls Perspective Center the Hofstadter Point.
