A function f(x) has a spinode (also called a horizontal cusp) at a point x_0 if f(x) is continuous at x_0 and lim_(x->x_0)f^'(x)=infty from one side while ...

The locus of points whose first polars with regard to the curves of a linear net have a common point. It is also the locus of points of concurrence of line polars of points ...

Let x be a point in an n-dimensional compact manifold M, and attach at x a copy of R^n tangential to M. The resulting structure is called the tangent space of M at x and is ...

The lines joining the vertices of a tetrahedron to the centroids of the opposite faces are called medians. Commandino's theorem states that the four medians of a tetrahedron ...

Due to Lebesgue and Brouwer. If an n-dimensional figure is covered in any way by sufficiently small subregions, then there will exist points which belong to at least n+1 of ...

The figure formed when the midpoints of adjacent sides of a quadrilateral are joined. Varignon's theorem demonstrated that this figure is a parallelogram. The center of the ...

A vertex is a special point of a mathematical object, and is usually a location where two or more lines or edges meet. Vertices are most commonly encountered in angles, ...

The vertex triangle of two distinct circumcevian triangles or circumanticevian triangles is perspective to the reference triangle. In addition, the vertex triangles of the ...

For a point P inside an equilateral triangle DeltaABC, the sum of the perpendiculars p_i from P to the sides of the triangle is equal to the altitude h. This result is simply ...

If each of two curves meets the line at infinity in distinct, nonsingular points, and if all their intersections are finite, then if to each common point there is attached a ...
