In calculus, geometry, and plotting contexts, the term "linear function" means a function whose graph is a straight line, i.e., a polynomial function of degree 0 or 1. A ...

A planar embedding, also called a "plane graph" (Harary 1994, p. 103; Harborth and Möller 1994), "planar drawing," or "plane drawing," of a planar graph is an embedding in ...

A polygonal diagonal is a line segment connecting two nonadjacent polygon vertices of a polygon. The number of ways a fixed convex n-gon can be divided into triangles by ...

For a diagonal metric tensor g_(ij)=g_(ii)delta_(ij), where delta_(ij) is the Kronecker delta, the scale factor for a parametrization x_1=f_1(q_1,q_2,...,q_n), ...

The first Brocard Cevian triangle is the Cevian triangle of the first Brocard point. It has area Delta_1=(2a^2b^2c^2)/((a^2+b^2)(b^2+c^2)(c^2+a^2))Delta, where Delta is the ...

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 ...

Two triangles DeltaA_1B_1C_1 and DeltaA_2B_2C_2 are orthologic if the perpendiculars from the vertices A_1, B_1, C_1 on the sides B_2C_2, A_2C_2, and A_2B_2 are concurrent. ...

The second Brocard Cevian triangle is the Cevian triangle of the second Brocard point. It has area Delta_2=(2a^2b^2c^2)/((a^2+b^2)(b^2+c^2)(c^2+a^2))Delta, where Delta is the ...

A quantity which takes on the value zero is said to vanish. For example, the function f(z)=z^2 vanishes at the point z=0. For emphasis, the term "vanish identically" is ...

Let s(x,y,z) and t(x,y,z) be differentiable scalar functions defined at all points on a surface S. In computer graphics, the functions s and t often represent texture ...
