At the points where a line X cuts the sides of a triangle DeltaA_1A_2A_3, draw three perpendiculars to the sides, one through each point of intersection. The resulting three ...

Given n points, find the line segments with the shortest possible total length which connect the points. The segments need not necessarily be straight from one point to ...

The French metro metric is an example for disproving apparently intuitive but false properties of metric spaces. The metric consists of a distance function on the plane such ...

A complex vector bundle is a vector bundle pi:E->M whose fiber bundles pi^(-1)(m) are a copy of C^k. pi is a holomorphic vector bundle if it is a holomorphic map between ...

Let a homogeneous solid contain a convex hole K and take x-rays so that the "darkness" at each point on a photographic plate determines the length of the chord of K along the ...

In practice, the vertical offsets from a line (polynomial, surface, hyperplane, etc.) are almost always minimized instead of the perpendicular offsets. This provides a ...

The perpendicular bisector of a line segment is the locus of all points that are equidistant from its endpoints. This theorem can be applied to determine the center of a ...

There are three types of so-called fundamental forms. The most important are the first and second (since the third can be expressed in terms of these). The fundamental forms ...

The orthic axis of the excentral triangle, which is central line L_1 (Casey 1888, p. 177; Kimberling 1998, p. 150) and therefore has trilinear equation alpha+beta+gamma=0. It ...

A graph embedding, sometimes also called a graph drawing, is a particular drawing of a graph. Graph embeddings are most commonly drawn in the plane, but may also be ...
