The third Morley triangle is made by rotating line BC toward vertex A about vertex B by angle (B+4pi)/3. It is an equilateral triangle. It has trilinear vertex matrix [1 ...

A toric section is a curve obtained by slicing a torus (generally a horn torus) with a plane. A spiric section is a special case of a toric section in which the slicing plane ...

The triakis truncated tetrahedron is a convex space-filling polyhedron which is the shape of the Voronoi cell of carbon atoms in diamond. It can be constructed from the ...

In the above figure, let DeltaABC be a right triangle, arcs AP and AQ be segments of circles centered at C and B respectively, and define a = BC (1) b = CA=CP (2) c = BA=BQ. ...

The interior of the triangle is the set of all points inside a triangle, i.e., the set of all points in the convex hull of the triangle's vertices. The simplest way to ...

A line can be specified in trilinear coordinates by parameters (l,m,n) such that the trilinear coordinates alpha:beta:gamma obey lalpha+mbeta+ngamma=0. (1) The trilinear line ...

The truncated dodecadodecahedron, also called the quasitruncated dodecahedron, is the uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 59 (Maeder 1997), Wenninger index 98 (Wenninger ...

The vertex figure at a vertex V of a polygon is the line segment joining the midpoints of the two adjacent sides meeting at V. For a regular n-gon with side length a, the ...

A figure used in many Asian cultures to symbolize the unity of the two "opposite" female and male elements, the "yin" and "yang." The solid and hollow parts composing the ...

Two distinct theorems are referred to as "the de Bruijn-Erdős theorem." One of them (de Bruijn and Erdős 1951) concerns the chromatic number of infinite graphs; the other (de ...
