Mixing
The Foot of a Perpendicular from a Point to a Line
1
$begingroup$
I have a triangle $ABC$ and a point $P$ with barycentric coordinates $(alpha,beta,gamma)$ that I want to know the barycentric coordinates of the foot of a perpendicular from P to a line $l: ux + vy + wz = 0$

I'm looking for a general answer, but I'm interested L being the Euler line and P being B
