[alogo] Composition of three reflexions

ABC the basic triangle. l, m, n the reflexions on its sides BC, CA, AB respectively. Their composition f= m*l*n is a "Glide-Reflexion", with axis the side FE of the orthic triangle DEF and translation-vector GH equal to the perimeter of the orthic triangle.
The cyclic permutations l*n*m and n*m*l give glide-reflexions with respect to the other sides of the orthic triangle. The remaining permutations give inverse transformations to those three.

Glide-reflexions are compositions of reflections on an axis "e" and translation by a vector "v", parallel to "e".
