In Homogeneous coordinates (x_1,x_2,x_3), the equation of a circle C is a(x_1^2+x_2^2)+2fx_2x_3+2gx_1x_3+cx_3^2=0. The discriminant of this circle is defined as Delta=|a 0 g; ...

While some authors define "circumference" as distance around an arbitrary closed object (sometimes restricted to a closed curved object), in the work, the term "perimeter" is ...

A triangle DeltaA^'B^'C^' is said to be circumscribed in a triangle DeltaABC if A lies on B^'C^', B lies on C^'A^', and C lies on A^'B^' (Kimberling 1998, p. 185). Examples ...

For the parametric representation x = (2t^2)/(1+t^2) (1) y = (2t^3)/(1+t^2), (2) the catacaustic of this curve from the radiant point (8a,0) is given by x = ...

If the cusp of the cissoid of Diocles is taken as the inversion center, then the cissoid inverts to a parabola.

The pedal curve of the cissoid, when the pedal point is on the axis beyond the asymptote at a distance from the cusp which is four times that of the asymptote is a cardioid.

Two lines or plane congruent geometric figures which lie on top of each other are said to be coincident.

The comass of a differential p-form phi is the largest value of phi on a p vector of p-volume one, sup_(v in ^ ^pTM,|v|=1)|phi(v)|.

A concave polygon is a polygon that is not convex. A simple polygon is concave iff at least one of its internal angles is greater than 180 degrees. An example of a non-simple ...

A concho-spiral, also known as a conchospiral, is a space curve with parametric equations r = mu^ua (1) theta = u (2) z = mu^uc, (3) where mu, a, and c are fixed parameters. ...
