A mixtilinear incircle (respectively excircle) of a triangle is tangent to two sides and to the circumcircle internally (respectively externally). We study the configuration of the three mixtilinear incircles (respectively excircles). In particular, we give easy constructions of the circle (apart from the circumcircle) tangent the three mixtilinear incircles (respectively excircles). We also obtain a number of interesting triangle centers on the line joining the circumcenter and the incenter of a triangle. 1. Preliminaries In this paper we study two triads of circles associated with a triangle, the mix- tilinear incircles and the mixtilinear excircles. For an introduction to these circles, see [4] and §§2, 3 below. In this section we collect some important basic results used in this paper. Proposition 1 (d’Alembert’s Theorem [1]). Let O (r ), O (r ), O (r ) be three 1 1 2 2 3 3 circles with distinct centers. According as ε = +1 or −1, denote by A , A , A 1ε 2ε 3ε respectively the insimilicenters or exsimilicenters of the pairs of circles ((O ), (O )),
