  2. Collinearity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collinearity

    An antenna mast with four collinear directional arrays. In telecommunications, a collinear (or co-linear) antenna array is an array of dipole antennas mounted in such a manner that the corresponding elements of each antenna are parallel and aligned, that is they are located along a common line or axis.

  3. Geometric terms of location - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_terms_of_location

    Tangential – intersecting a curve at a point and parallel to the curve at that point. Collinear – in the same line; Parallel – in the same direction. Transverse – intersecting at any angle, i.e. not parallel. Orthogonal (or perpendicular) – at a right angle (at the point of intersection).

  4. Collinear antenna array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collinear_antenna_array

    Collinear dipole array on repeater for radio station JOHG-FM on Mt. Shibisan, Kagoshima, Japan. In telecommunications, a collinear antenna array (sometimes spelled colinear antenna array) is an array of dipole or quarter-wave antennas mounted in such a manner that the corresponding elements of each antenna are parallel and collinear; that is, they are located along a common axis.

  5. Affine plane (incidence geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affine_plane_(incidence...

    There exist four points such that no three are collinear (points not on a single line). In an affine plane, two lines are called parallel if they are equal or disjoint. Using this definition, Playfair's axiom above can be replaced by: [2] Given a point and a line, there is a unique line which contains the point and is parallel to the line.

  6. Coplanarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coplanarity

    This occurs if the lines are parallel, or if they intersect each other. Two lines that are not coplanar are called skew lines . Distance geometry provides a solution technique for the problem of determining whether a set of points is coplanar, knowing only the distances between them.

  7. 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 ...

  8. General position - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_position

    It means the general case situation, as opposed to some more special or coincidental cases that are possible, which is referred to as special position. Its precise meaning differs in different settings. For example, generically, two lines in the plane intersect in a single point (they are not parallel or coincident).

  9. Projective geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projective_geometry

    there exists exactly one line through P that does not meet l Hyperbolic there exists more than one line through P that does not meet l. The parallel property of elliptic geometry is the key idea that leads to the principle of projective duality, possibly the most important property that all projective geometries have in common.
