The parallel curves of a circle with radius a with offset k are given by the parametric equations x_p(t) = (a+k)cost (1) y_p(t) = (a+k)sint (2) and are therefore themselves ...

A triangle DeltaA^'B^'C^' is said to be circumscribed in a triangle DeltaABC if A lies on B^'C^', B lies on C^'A^', and C lies on A^'B^' (Kimberling 1998, p. 185). Examples ...

The inverse curve of the cochleoid r=(sintheta)/theta (1) with inversion center at the origin and inversion radius k is the quadratrix of Hippias. x = ktcottheta (2) y = kt. ...

Two triangles having the same triangle medians are said to be comedian triangles (Lachlan 1893, p. 63).

A concave polygon is a polygon that is not convex. A simple polygon is concave iff at least one of its internal angles is greater than 180 degrees. An example of a non-simple ...

Confocal conics are conic sections sharing a common focus. Any two confocal central conics are orthogonal (Ogilvy 1990, p. 77).

Confocal parabolas are parabolas sharing a common focus.

The discriminant of the general conic section ax_1^2+bx_2^2+cx_3^2+2fx_2x_3+2gx_1x_3+2hx_1x_2=0 is defined as Delta=|a h g; h b f; g f c|=abc+2fgh-af^2-bg^2-ch^2. If b=a and ...

The closed cyclic self-intersecting hexagon formed by joining the adjacent antiparallels in the construction of the cosine circle. The sides of this hexagon have the property ...

The Croatian cross is a stylized cross that is part of the baptistery of Croatian Duke Viseslav and dates back roughly 1000 years.
