Given a set S of points in the plane, an enclosing circle is a circle for which all points S lie in its interior.

The evolute of the epicycloid x = (a+b)cost-bcos[((a+b)/b)t] (1) y = (a+b)sint-bsin[((a+b)/b)t] (2) is another epicycloid given by x = a/(a+2b){(a+b)cost+bcos[((a+b)/b)t]} ...

The involute of the epicycloid x = (a+b)cost-bcos[((a+b)/b)t] (1) y = (a+b)sint-bsin[((a+b)/b)t] (2) is another epicycloid given by x = (a+2b)/a{(a+b)cost+bcos[((a+b)/b)t]} ...

The epispiral is a plane curve with polar equation r=asec(ntheta). There are n sections if n is odd and 2n if n is even. A slightly more symmetric version considers instead ...

The inverse curve of the epispiral r=asec(ntheta) with inversion center at the origin and inversion radius k is the rose curve r=(kcos(ntheta))/a.

The parametric equations of the evolute of an epitrochoid specified by circle radii a and b with offset h are x = ...

An equilateral polygon is a polygon whose edges are all of equal length (Williams 1979, pp. 31-32). The most prominent examples of equilateral polygons are the regular ...

An equilateral polyhedron is a polyhedron whose edges are all of equal length. Platonic solids, Archimedean solids, canonical antiprisms, and canonical prisms, Johnson ...

An equirectangular projection is a cylindrical equidistant projection, also called a rectangular projection, plane chart, plate carre, or unprojected map, in which the ...

The curvature of a surface satisfies kappa=kappa_1cos^2theta+kappa_2sin^2theta, where kappa is the normal curvature in a direction making an angle theta with the first ...
