Consider the decimal expansion of the reciprocal of the number seven, 1/7=0.142857142857...=0.142857^_, (1) which is a repeating decimal. Now take overlapping pairs of these ...

The ophiuride is a cubic curve (left figure) given by the implicit equation x(x^2+y^2)+(ax-by)y=0, (1) where a>0,b>=0, or by the polar equation ...

The 60 Pascal lines of a hexagon inscribed in a conic section intersect three at a time through 20 Steiner points. There is a dual relationship between the 15 Plücker lines ...

If a cyclic quadrilateral ABCD is inscribed in a circle c_1 of a coaxal system such that one pair AC of connectors touches another circle c_2 of the system at P, then each ...

The radical circle of three given circles is the circle having center at the radical center of the three circles and is orthogonal to all of them. (A circle with center at ...

A curvilinear polygon built up of circular arcs. The Reuleaux polygon is a generalization of the Reuleaux triangle and, for an odd number of sides, is a curve of constant ...

The salinon is the figure illustrated above formed from four connected semicircles. The word salinon is Greek for "salt cellar," which the figure resembles. If the radius of ...

The 20 Cayley lines generated by a hexagon inscribed in a conic section pass four at a time though 15 points known as Salmon points (Wells 1991). There is a dual relationship ...

The second Morley triangle is made by rotating line BC toward vertex A about vertex B by angle (B+2pi)/3. It is an equilateral triangle. It has trilinear vertex matrix [1 ...

One of the beautiful arrangements of circles found at the Temple of Osiris at Abydos, Egypt (Rawles 1997). The pattern also appears in Italian art from the 13th century ...
