Correction text:
You say "[...] the feet of perpendicular from $A$, $B$, and $C$." First, unless one perpendicular can have many feet, you should say "perpendiculars". Second, it is not clear where you drop the perpendiculars from each mentioned point. It would be helpful to say "perpendiculars from $A$, [...] to the opposite sides of the triangle." or something similar.

There is no reason to introduce abbreviations in "[...] the fig. shown below [...]", just say "figure".

Finally "[...] the pedal triangle of $P$ is one, whose [...]", should not
have the comma there. The word "one" does not say anything specific about the trianlge, so it should not be separated from the rest of the description.
