One name for the figure used by Euclid to prove the Pythagorean theorem. It is sometimes also known as the "windmill."

For a curve with first fundamental form ds^2=Edu^2+2Fdudv+Gdv^2, (1) the Gaussian curvature is K=(M_1-M_2)/((EG-F^2)^2), (2) where M_1 = |-1/2E_(vv)+F_(uv)-1/2G_(uu) 1/2E_u ...

A convex set K is centro-symmetric, sometimes also called centrally symmetric, if it has a center p that bisects every chord of K through p.

The point of concurrence S of a triangle's cleavers M_1C_1, M_2C_2, and M_3C_3, which is simply the Spieker center, i.e., the incenter of the medial triangle DeltaM_1M_2M_3 ...

Let C_1, C_2, C_3, and C_4 be four circles of general position through a point P. Let P_(ij) be the second intersection of the circles C_i and C_j. Let C_(ijk) be the circle ...

The collapsoids are a class of non-convex collapsible polyhedra. They can be constructed by replacing each edge of a dodecahedron or icosahedron by the diagonal of a pyramid ...

Two triangles having the same triangle medians are said to be comedian triangles (Lachlan 1893, p. 63).

Extend the symmedians of a triangle DeltaA_1A_2A_3 to meet the circumcircle at P_1, P_2, P_3. Then the symmedian point K of DeltaA_1A_2A_3 is also the symmedian point of ...

The curve d(u) in the ruled surface parameterization x(u,v)=b(u)+vd(u).

The distribution parameter of a noncylindrical ruled surface parameterized by x(u,v)=sigma(u)+vdelta(u), (1) where sigma is the striction curve and delta the director curve, ...
