  2. Cross-ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-ratio

    (If one of the four points is the line's point at infinity, then the two distances involving that point are dropped from the formula.) The point D is the harmonic conjugate of C with respect to A and B precisely if the cross-ratio of the quadruple is −1, called the harmonic ratio.

  3. Section formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Section_formula

    In coordinate geometry, the Section formula is a formula used to find the ratio in which a line segment is divided by a point internally or externally. [1] It is used to find out the centroid, incenter and excenters of a triangle. In physics, it is used to find the center of mass of systems, equilibrium points, etc. [2] [3] [4] [5]

  4. Distance from a point to a line - Wikipedia

    The distance (or perpendicular distance) from a point to a line is the shortest distance from a fixed point to any point on a fixed infinite line in Euclidean geometry. It is the length of the line segment which joins the point to the line and is perpendicular to the line. The formula for calculating it can be derived and expressed in several ways.

  5. Four-point flexural test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-point_flexural_test

    Values for the flexural strength measured with four-point bending will be significantly lower than with three-point bending., [7] Compared with three-point bending test, this method is more suitable for strength evaluation of butt joint specimens. The advantage of four-point bending test is that a larger portion of the specimen between two ...

  6. Locus (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locus_(mathematics)

    Each curve in this example is a locus defined as the conchoid of the point P and the line l.In this example, P is 8 cm from l. In geometry, a locus (plural: loci) (Latin word for "place", "location") is a set of all points (commonly, a line, a line segment, a curve or a surface), whose location satisfies or is determined by one or more specified conditions.

  7. Projective harmonic conjugate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projective_harmonic_conjugate

    The cross-ratio (,;,) = () is a ratio of division ratios, or a double ratio. Setting the double ratio to minus one means that when t(c) + t(d) = 0, then c and d are harmonic conjugates with respect to a and b. So the division ratio criterion is that they be additive inverses.

  9. Bézier curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bézier_curve

    Any series of 4 distinct points can be converted to a cubic Bézier curve that goes through all 4 points in order. Given the starting and ending point of some cubic Bézier curve, and the points along the curve corresponding to t = 1/3 and t = 2/3, the control points for the original Bézier curve can be recovered.
