Taking the origin as the inversion center, Archimedes' spiral r=atheta inverts to the hyperbolic spiral r=a/theta.

In general, the catacaustics of the astroid are complicated curves. For an astroid with parametric equations x = cos^3t (1) y = sin^3t, (2) the catacaustic for a radiant ...

The evolute of the astroid is a hypocycloid evolute for n=4. Surprisingly, it is another astroid scaled by a factor n/(n-2)=4/2=2 and rotated 1/(2·4)=1/8 of a turn. For an ...

The involute of the astroid is a hypocycloid involute for n=4. Surprisingly, it is another astroid scaled by a factor (n-2)/n=2/4=1/2 and rotated 1/(2·4)=1/8 of a turn. For ...

The pedal curve of an astroid x = acos^3t (1) y = asin^3t (2) with pedal point at the center is the quadrifolium x_p = acostsin^2t (3) y_p = acos^2tsint. (4)

The radial curve of the astroid x = acos^3t (1) y = asin^3t (2) is the quadrifolium x_r = x_0+12acostsin^2t (3) y_r = y_0+12acos^2tsint. (4)

The augmented dodecahedron is Johnson solid J_(58), which is formed from augmentation of one of the faces of the regular dodecahedron by an equilateral pentagonal pyramid. It ...

The augmented hexagonal prism is Johnson solid J_(54), which is formed from augmentation of one of the lateral faces of an equilateral hexagonal prism by an equilateral ...

The augmented pentagonal prism is Johnson solid J_(52), which is formed from augmentation of one of the lateral faces of an equilateral pentagonal prism by an equilateral ...

An augmented polyhedron is a polyhedron formed from a base polyhedron via the augmentation operation on one or more of its faces. Augmentation is implemented under the ...
