Given two closed curves, the circuminscribed curve is simultaneously inscribed in the outer one and circumscribed on the inner one.

A geometric figure which touches only the vertices (or other extremities) of another figure.

For the parametric representation x = (2t^2)/(1+t^2) (1) y = (2t^3)/(1+t^2), (2) the catacaustic of this curve from the radiant point (8a,0) is given by x = ...

If the cusp of the cissoid of Diocles is taken as the inversion center, then the cissoid inverts to a parabola.

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.

An equation of the form y=ax^3+bx^2+cx+d where only one root is real.

An equation of the form y=ax^3+bx^2+cx+d, (1) where the three roots are real and distinct, i.e., y = a(x-r_1)(x-r_2)(x-r_3) (2) = ...

An equation of the form y=ax^3+bx^2+cx+d, (1) where two of the roots of the equation coincide (and all three are therefore real), i.e., y = a(x-r_1)^2(x-r_2) (2) = ...

The evolute of the curtate cycloid x = at-bsint (1) y = a-bcost (2) (with b<a) is given by x = (a[-2bt+2atcost-2asint+bsin(2t)])/(2(acost-b)) (3) y = ...

A curve has positive orientation if a region R is on the left when traveling around the outside of R, or on the right when traveling around the inside of R.
