The five of Hilbert's axioms which concern geometric equivalence.

If the lines joining corresponding points of two directly similar figures are divided proportionally, then the locus of the points of the division will be a figure directly ...

By analogy with the geometric centroid, the centroid of an arbitrary function f(x) is defined as <x>=(intxf(x)dx)/(intf(x)dx), (1) where the integrals are taken over the ...

The Heronian mean of two numbers a and b is defined as HM(a,b) = 1/3(2A+G) (1) = 1/3(a+sqrt(ab)+b), (2) where A is the arithmetic mean and G the geometric mean. It arises in ...

The hinge theorem says that if two triangles DeltaABC and DeltaA^'B^'C^' have congruent sides AB=A^'B^' and AC=A^'C^' and ∠A>∠A^', then BC>B^'C^'.

The extremities of parallel radii of two circles are called homologous with respect to the similitude center collinear with them.

A similarity transformation which preserves orientation, also called a homothety.

Two similar figures with parallel homologous lines and connectors of homologous points concurrent at the homothetic center are said to be in homothetic position. If two ...

Nonconcurrent triangles with parallel sides are always homothetic. Homothetic triangles are always perspective triangles. Their perspector is called their homothetic center.

Two figures are said to be similar when all corresponding angles are equal, and are inversely similar when all corresponding angles are equal and described in the opposite ...
