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

There are two different definitions of the polar angle. In the plane, the polar angle theta is the counterclockwise angle from the x-axis at which a point in the xy-plane ...

The function giving the volume of the spherical quadrectangular tetrahedron: V=(pi^2)/8f(pi/p,pi/q,pi/r), (1) where (2) and D=sqrt(cos^2xcos^2z-cos^2y). (3)

A section of a solid is the plane figure cut from the solid by passing a plane through it (Kern and Bland 1948, p. 18).

If a triangle is inscribed in a conic section, any line conjugate to one side meets the other two sides in conjugate points.

If a line L is the Simson line of a point P on the circumcircle of a triangle, then P is called the pole of L (Honsberger 1995, p. 128).

The tangent indicatrix of a curve of constant precession is a spherical helix. The equation of a spherical helix on a sphere with radius r making an angle theta with the ...

A plot of a function expressed in spherical coordinates, with radius r as a function of angles theta and phi. Polar plots can be drawn using SphericalPlot3D[r, {phi, phimin, ...

A spheroidal section is the curve formed by the intersection of a plane with a spheroid. A spheroidal section is either a circle (for planes parallel to an equator, i.e., ...

If, in a plane or spherical convex polygon ABCDEFG, all of whose sides AB, BC, CD, ..., FG (with the exception of AG) have fixed lengths, one simultaneously increases ...
