Geometric Algebra
Measuring by units leads to many surprising results in geometry. For example, connecting the midpoints of each side of a triangle to the opposing vertex gives the three medians, which meet at the triangle centroid. The centroid to a midpoint gives one length, while the distance to the vertex is exactly twice that length. An angle to a chord from a circle point is half the angle from the circle center. Hero’s formula relates the area of a triangle to the side lengths.
