Let j, r, and s be distinct integers (mod n), and let W_i be the point of intersection of the side or diagonal V_iV_(i+j) of the n-gon P=[V_1,...,V_n] with the transversal ...

Two distinct point pairs AC and BD separate each other if A, B, C, and D lie on a circle (or line) in such order that either of the arcs (or the line segment AC) contains one ...

The shoelace formula, also known as Gauss's area formula, the shoelace algorithm, shoelace method, or surveyor's formula, is a name sometimes given to the polygon area ...

Two triangles are similar if their triples of vertex angles are the same.

Two figures are homothetic if they are related by a dilation (a dilation is also known as a homothecy). This means that the connectors of corresponding points are concurrent ...

The Simson line is the line containing the feet P_1, P_2, and P_3 of the perpendiculars from an arbitrary point P on the circumcircle of a triangle to the sides or their ...

The sinusoidal projection is an equal-area projection given by the transformation x = (lambda-lambda_0)cosphi (1) y = phi. (2) The inverse formulas are phi = y (3) lambda = ...

The inverse curve of a sinusoidal spiral r=a^(1/n)[cos(nt)]^(1/n) with inversion center at the origin and inversion radius k is another sinusoidal spiral ...

The pedal curve of a sinusoidal spiral r=a[cos(nt)]^(1/n) with pedal point at the center is another sinusoidal spiral with polar equation r=a[cos(nt)]^(1+1/n). A few examples ...

A polygon whose vertices do not all lie in a plane.
