Mark a point P on a side of a triangle and draw the perpendiculars from the point to the two other sides. The line between the feet of these two perpendiculars is called the ...

The fixed point with respect to which a pedal curve or pedal triangle is drawn.

Let A be a finite-dimensional power-associative algebra, then A is the vector space direct sum A=A_(11)+A_(10)+A_(01)+A_(00), where A_(ij), with i,j=0,1 is the subspace of A ...

The Pell-Lucas polynomials Q(x) are the w-polynomials generated by the Lucas polynomial sequence using the generator p(x)=2x, q(x)=1. The first few are Q_1(x) = 2x (1) Q_2(x) ...

The lines of a pencil joining the points of a line segment range to another point.

The quintic surface given by the equation x^2+y^3+z^5=1 was considered by S. Plouffe (pers. comm., Dec. 21, 1998) and here dubbed the peninsula surface. It has been dubbed ...

A polycube composed of 5 cubes. There are 29 distinct three-dimensional pentacubes (Bouwkamp 1981). Of these, the 12 planar pentacubes (corresponding to solid pentominoes), ...

A 15-sided polygon, sometimes also called the pentakaidecagon. For a regular pentadecagon with side length 1, the inradius r, circumradius R, and area A are r = ...

A pentagon is a five-sided polygon. Several special types of pentagons are illustrated above. In particular, a pentagon with vertices equally spaced around a circle and with ...

Given a regular pentagon of unit area, mean triangle area of a triangle picked at random inside it is given by the n=5 case of polygon triangle picking, A^_ = ...
