    These sets can be used to define a plane dual structure. Interchange the role of "points" and "lines" in C = (P, L, I) to obtain the dual structure. C ∗ = (L, P, I ∗), where I ∗ is the converse relation of I. C ∗ is also a projective plane, called the dual plane of C. If C and C ∗ are isomorphic, then C is called self-dual.
