  2. Hyperbola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbola

    Hyperbola: the midpoints of parallel chords lie on a line. Hyperbola: the midpoint of a chord is the midpoint of the corresponding chord of the asymptotes. The midpoints of parallel chords of a hyperbola lie on a line through the center (see diagram). The points of any chord may lie on different branches of the hyperbola.

  3. Unit hyperbola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_hyperbola

    The unit hyperbola is blue, its conjugate is green, and the asymptotes are red. In geometry, the unit hyperbola is the set of points (x,y) in the Cartesian plane that satisfy the implicit equation = In the study of indefinite orthogonal groups, the unit hyperbola forms the basis for an alternative radial length

  4. Hyperbolic functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_functions

    A ray through the unit hyperbola x 2 − y 2 = 1 at the point (cosh a, sinh a), where a is twice the area between the ray, the hyperbola, and the x-axis. For points on the hyperbola below the x-axis, the area is considered negative (see animated version with comparison with the trigonometric (circular) functions).

  5. Five points determine a conic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_points_determine_a_conic

    The two subtleties in the above analysis are that the resulting point is a quadratic equation (not a linear equation), and that the constraints are independent. The first is simple: if A , B , and C all vanish, then the equation D x + E y + F = 0 {\displaystyle Dx+Ey+F=0} defines a line, and any 3 points on this (indeed any number of points ...

  6. Feuerbach hyperbola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feuerbach_hyperbola

    Specifically all the points lying on the line have their isogonal conjugates lying on the hyperbola. The Nagel point lies on the curve since its isogonal conjugate is the point of concurrency of the lines joining the vertices and the opposite Mixtilinear incircle touchpoints, also the in-similitude of the incircle and the circumcircle.

  7. Paraboloid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraboloid

    a line, if the plane is parallel to the z-axis, and has an equation of the form + =, a parabola, if the plane is parallel to the z-axis, and the section is not a line, a pair of intersecting lines, if the plane is a tangent plane, a hyperbola, otherwise. STL hyperbolic paraboloid model

  8. Hyperboloid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperboloid

    The hyperboloid of two sheets does not contain lines. The discussion of plane sections can be performed for the unit hyperboloid of two sheets with equation : + = which can be generated by a rotating hyperbola around one of its axes (the one that cuts the hyperbola)

  9. Hyperbolic coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_coordinates

    For example, in thermodynamics the isothermal process explicitly follows the hyperbolic path and work can be interpreted as a hyperbolic angle change. Similarly, a given mass M of gas with changing volume will have variable density δ = M / V , and the ideal gas law may be written P = k T δ so that an isobaric process traces a hyperbola in the ...
