An ellipse is a curve that is the locus of all points in the plane the sum of whose distances r_1 and r_2 from two fixed points F_1 and F_2 (the foci) separated by a distance ...

A hexagonal prism is a prism composed of two hexagonal bases and six rectangular sides. It is an octahedron. The regular right hexagonal prism is a space-filling polyhedron. ...

The vertex of an isosceles triangle having angle different from the two equal angles is called the apex of the isosceles triangle. The common polygon vertex at the top of a ...

A parallelohedron is a space-filling polyhedron that fills space using an infinite number of similarly situated copies (Tutton 1964, pp. 567 and 723; Coxeter 1973, pp. ...

The genesa is a mystical figure that correspond to a spherical cuboctahedron.

A spherical polyhedron is set of arcs on the surface of a sphere corresponding to the projections of the edges of a polyhedron. The images above illustrate the spherical ...

The edge of a polygon or face of a polyhedron are sometimes called sides.

The analog of trilinear coordinates for tetrahedra.

A space endowed with a non-Euclidean elliptic geometry.

In the above figure, let E be the intersection of AD and BC and specify that AB∥EF∥CD. Then 1/(AB)+1/(CD)=1/(EF). A beautiful related theorem due to H. Stengel can be stated ...
