  2. Line segment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_segment

    A closed line segment includes both endpoints, while an open line segment excludes both endpoints; a half-open line segment includes exactly one of the endpoints. In geometry , a line segment is often denoted using an overline ( vinculum ) above the symbols for the two endpoints, such as in AB .

  3. Polygonal chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygonal_chain

    A closed polygonal chain is one in which the first vertex coincides with the last one, or, alternatively, the first and the last vertices are also connected by a line segment. [1] A simple closed polygonal chain in the plane is the boundary of a simple polygon .

  4. Polygon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygon

    In geometry, a polygon (/ ˈ p ɒ l ɪ ɡ ɒ n /) is a plane figure made up of line segments connected to form a closed polygonal chain. The segments of a closed polygonal chain are called its edges or sides. The points where two edges meet are the polygon's vertices or corners. An n-gon is a polygon with n sides; for example, a triangle is a 3 ...

  5. Line (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    The normal form (also called the Hesse normal form, [10] after the German mathematician Ludwig Otto Hesse), is based on the normal segment for a given line, which is defined to be the line segment drawn from the origin perpendicular to the line. This segment joins the origin with the closest point on the line to the origin.

  6. Closed lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed_Lines

    Closed line or closed lines could refer to: Closed curve, a curve in mathematics where the two ends meet; Closed line segment, a line segment in mathematics that includes both its endpoints; Defunct airlines, or air travel companies that no longer exist; Line (formation), a military formation in which soldiers are packed together into rows

  7. Convex set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convex_set

    A set C is strictly convex if every point on the line segment connecting x and y other than the endpoints is inside the topological interior of C. A closed convex subset is strictly convex if and only if every one of its boundary points is an extreme point. [3] A set C is absolutely convex if it is convex and balanced.
