The latus rectum of a conic section is the chord through a focus parallel to the conic section directrix (Coxeter 1969). "Latus rectum" is a compound of the Latin latus, ...

The least common denominator of a collection of fractions (p_1)/(q_1),...,(p_n)/(q_n) is the least common multiple LCM(q_1,...,q_n) of their denominators.

The Lehmer mean of a set of n numbers {a_k}_(k=1)^n is defined by L_p(a_1,...,a_n)=(sum_(k=1)^(n)a_k^p)/(sum_(k=1)^(n)a_k^(p-1)) (Havil 2003, p. 121).

Pick a point O in the interior of a quadrilateral which is not a parallelogram. Join this point to each of the four vertices, then the locus of points O for which the sum of ...

The plane determined by the points x_1, x_2, and x_3 and the line passing through the points x_4 and x_5 intersect in a point which can be determined by solving the four ...

The least number of crossings that occur in any projection of a link. In general, it is difficult to find the crossing number of a given link. Knots and links are generally ...
