The converse of Pascal's theorem, which states that if the three pairs of opposite sides of (an irregular) hexagon meet at three collinear points, then the six vertices lie ...

Brent's method is a root-finding algorithm which combines root bracketing, bisection, and inverse quadratic interpolation. It is sometimes known as the van ...

The area of the shadow of a body on a plane, also called the "outer quermass."

A Tschirnhausen transformation can be used to algebraically transform a general quintic equation to the form z^5+c_1z+c_0=0. (1) In practice, the general quintic is first ...

A Tschirnhausen transformation can be used to take a general quintic equation to the form x^5-x-a=0, where a may be complex.

Using a Tschirnhausen transformation, the principal quintic form can be transformed to the one-parameter form w^5-10cw^3+45c^2w-c^2=0 (1) named after Francesco Brioschi ...

An ordinary differential equation of the form x^my^'=f(x,y), where m is a positive integer, f is analytic at x=y=0, f(0,0)=0, and f_y^'(0,0)!=0. Zwillinger (1997, p. 120), ...

The line segment KO^_ joining the symmedian point K and circumcenter O of a given triangle. It is the diameter of the triangle's Brocard circle, and lies along the Brocard ...

The Brocard inellipse is the inconic with parameters x:y:z=1/a:1/b:1/c, (1) giving the trilinear equation ...

A Brocard line is a line from any of the vertices A_i of a triangle DeltaA_1A_2A_3 to the first Omega or second Omega^' Brocard point. Let the angle at a vertex A_i also be ...
