The pedal curve of the cissoid, when the pedal point is on the axis beyond the asymptote at a distance from the cusp which is four times that of the asymptote is a cardioid.

The four medians of a tetrahedron concur in a point which divides each tetrahedron median in the ratio 1:3, the longer segment being on the side of the vertex of the ...

The dihedral group D_2 is a point group that is isomorphic to the vierergruppe and the finite group C_2×C_2.

Given a vector bundle pi:E->M, its dual bundle is a vector bundle pi^*:E^*->M. The fiber bundle of E^* over a point p in M is the dual vector space to the fiber of E.

A sequence {a_1,a_2,a_3,...} fulfils a given property eventually if it fulfils it from some point onward, or, more precisely, if the property is fulfilled by the subsequence ...

Fatou dust is a Fatou set for a point outside the underlying set. Such a set has zero area and has an infinite number of disconnected components.

The abscissas of the N-point Gaussian quadrature formula are precisely the roots of the orthogonal polynomial for the same interval and weighting function.

If P is any point on a line TT^' whose orthopole is S, then the circle power of S with respect to the pedal circle of P is a constant (Gallatly 1913, p. 51).

A linear approximation to a function f(x) at a point x_0 can be computed by taking the first term in the Taylor series f(x_0+Deltax)=f(x_0)+f^'(x_0)Deltax+....

The lengths of the tangents from a point P to a conic C are proportional to the cube roots of the radii of curvature of C at the corresponding points of contact.
