A sequence of circles which closes (such as a Steiner chain or the circles inscribed in the arbelos) is called a chain.

The discriminant of the general conic section ax_1^2+bx_2^2+cx_3^2+2fx_2x_3+2gx_1x_3+2hx_1x_2=0 is defined as Delta=|a h g; h b f; g f c|=abc+2fgh-af^2-bg^2-ch^2. If b=a and ...

The closed cyclic self-intersecting hexagon formed by joining the adjacent antiparallels in the construction of the cosine circle. The sides of this hexagon have the property ...

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 ...

A quantity defined for a conic section which can be given in terms of semimajor a and semiminor axes b. interval curve e e=0 circle 0 0<e<1 ellipse sqrt(1-(b^2)/(a^2)) e=1 ...

An ellipsoidal section is the curve formed by the intersection of a plane with an ellipsoid. An ellipsoidal section is always an ellipse.

The Feuerbach point X_(11) (center of the Feuerbach hyperbola) lies on the nine-point circle. The Feuerbach antipode is the antipode of this point on nine-point circle. It ...

Let X be a continuum (i.e., a compact connected metric space). Then X is hereditarily unicoherent provided that every subcontinuum of X is unicoherent. Any hereditarily ...

The triangle DeltaA^'B^'C^' formed by the points of pairwise intersection of the three intangents. It is not in perspective with DeltaABC. It has trilinear vertex matrix ...

The point that inversion of a curve is performed with respect to.
