Review text

The main results proved in this paper are as follows: 1. Let \(S \subset \mathbb R^2\) be a set of \(n \geq 3\) points and \(\varepsilon > 0\) an arbitrary real number. Then there is a set \(S'\) of \(n\) points with rational coordinates each lying in an \(\varepsilon\)-neighborhood of the corresponding point of \(S\), no three of them on a line, no four on a circle, such that at least \(3(n-2)\) distances between the points of \(S'\) are rational. 2. Let \(ABC\) be a triangle in \(\mathbb R^2\) and \(\varepsilon > 0\) an arbitrary real number. Then there is (a) a triangle \(A'B'C'\) with rational sides and at least one rational median such that the points \(A'\), \(B'\), \(C'\) lie in an \(\varepsilon\)-neighborhood of \(A\), \(B\), \(C\), respectively, and (b) a triangle \(ABC\) with rational sides, rational altitudes and rational internal angle bisectors such that the points \(A\), \(B\), \(C\) have rational coordinates and lie in an \(\varepsilon\)-neighborhood of \(A\), \(B\), \(C\), respectively.
