The quartic curve given by the implicit equation (x^2-a^2)(x-a)^2+(y^2-a^2)^2=0, (1) so-named because of its resemblance to a tooth. The bicuspid curve has cusps at (a,-a) ...

A Bill picture is a sequence of nested regular polygons in which subsequent polygons are each rotated so that they begin one vertex further. The term was coined by Trott ...

For a general quadrilateral with sides of length a, b, c, and d, the area K is given by (1) where s=1/2(a+b+c+d) (2) is the semiperimeter, A is the angle between a and d, and ...

A quadrilateral whose consecutive sides have the lengths a_1b_3, a_3b_2, a_2b_3, a_3b_1, where a_1^2+a_2^2=a_3^2 (1) and b_1^2+b_2^2=b_3^2. (2) Brahmagupta's trapezium is a ...

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 ...

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 ...

The only known classically known algebraic curve of curve genus g>1 that has an explicit parametrization (x(t),y(t)) in terms of standard special functions (Burnside 1893, ...

The Cairo tessellation is a tessellation appearing in the streets of Cairo and in many Islamic decorations. Its tiles are obtained by projection of a dodecahedron, and it is ...
