Abstract: We give a new proof of the formula expressing the area of the triangle whose vertices are the projections of an arbitrary point in the plane onto the sides of a given triangle, in terms of the geometry of the given triangle and the location of the projection point. Other related geometrical constructions and formulas are also presented.
