  2. Parallel (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_(geometry)

    Intersecting, parallel and ultra parallel lines through a with respect to l in the hyperbolic plane. The parallel lines appear to intersect l just off the image. This is just an artifact of the visualisation. On a real hyperbolic plane the lines will get closer to each other and 'meet' in infinity.

  3. Elliptic geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic_geometry

    Elliptic geometry is an example of a geometry in which Euclid's parallel postulate does not hold. Instead, as in spherical geometry , there are no parallel lines since any two lines must intersect. However, unlike in spherical geometry, two lines are usually assumed to intersect at a single point (rather than two).

  4. Two-dimensional space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-dimensional_space

    Euclidean space has parallel lines which extend infinitely while remaining equidistant. In non-Euclidean spaces, lines perpendicular to a traversal either converge or diverge. A two-dimensional space is a mathematical space with two dimensions , meaning points have two degrees of freedom : their locations can be locally described with two ...

  5. Line (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_(geometry)

    For a convex quadrilateral with at most two parallel sides, the Newton line is the line that connects the midpoints of the two diagonals. [7] For a hexagon with vertices lying on a conic we have the Pascal line and, in the special case where the conic is a pair of lines, we have the Pappus line. Parallel lines are lines in the same plane that ...

  6. Arrangement of lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrangement_of_lines

    However, parallel (non-crossing) pairs of lines are less restricted in hyperbolic line arrangements than in the Euclidean plane: in particular, the relation of being parallel is an equivalence relation for Euclidean lines but not for hyperbolic lines. [51] The intersection graph of the lines in a hyperbolic arrangement can be an arbitrary ...

  7. Projective plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projective_plane

    The points at infinity are the "extra" points where parallel lines intersect in the construction of the extended real plane; the point (0, x 1, x 2) is where all lines of slope x 2 / x 1 intersect. Consider for example the two lines = {(,):} = {(,):} in the affine plane K 2. These lines have slope 0 and do not intersect.

  9. Point at infinity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_at_infinity

    The real line with the point at infinity; it is called the real projective line. In geometry, a point at infinity or ideal point is an idealized limiting point at the "end" of each line. In the case of an affine plane (including the Euclidean plane), there is one ideal point for each pencil of parallel lines of the plane.
