  2. Line–line intersection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lineline_intersection

    The intersection point falls within the first line segment if 0 ≤ t ≤ 1, and it falls within the second line segment if 0 ≤ u ≤ 1. These inequalities can be tested without the need for division, allowing rapid determination of the existence of any line segment intersection before calculating its exact point. [3]

  3. Distance from a point to a line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Distance_from_a_point_to_a_line

    The line with equation ax + by + c = 0 has slope -a/b, so any line perpendicular to it will have slope b/a (the negative reciprocal). Let (m, n) be the point of intersection of the line ax + by + c = 0 and the line perpendicular to it which passes through the point (x 0, y 0). The line through these two points is perpendicular to the original ...

  4. Intersection type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection_type

    For example, if number => number is the type of function taking a number as an argument and returning a number, and string => string is the type of function taking a string as an argument and returning a string, then the intersection of these two types can be used to describe (overloaded) functions that do one or the other, based on what type ...

  5. Union (set theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_(set_theory)

    In this Boolean algebra, union can be expressed in terms of intersection and complementation by the formula = (), where the superscript denotes the complement in the universal set ⁠ ⁠. Alternatively, intersection can be expressed in terms of union and complementation in a similar way: A ∩ B = ( A ∁ ∪ B ∁ ) ∁ {\displaystyle A\cap B ...

  6. Line–plane intersection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line–plane_intersection

    The three possible plane-line relationships in three dimensions. (Shown in each case is only a portion of the plane, which extends infinitely far.) In analytic geometry, the intersection of a line and a plane in three-dimensional space can be the empty set, a point, or a line. It is the entire line if that line is embedded in the plane, and is ...

  7. Concurrent lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concurrent_lines

    The two bimedians of a quadrilateral (segments joining midpoints of opposite sides) and the line segment joining the midpoints of the diagonals are concurrent and are all bisected by their point of intersection. [3]: p.125 In a tangential quadrilateral, the four angle bisectors concur at the center of the incircle. [4]

    The intersection is the meet/infimum of and with respect to because: if L ∩ R ⊆ L {\displaystyle L\cap R\subseteq L} and L ∩ R ⊆ R , {\displaystyle L\cap R\subseteq R,} and if Z {\displaystyle Z} is a set such that Z ⊆ L {\displaystyle Z\subseteq L} and Z ⊆ R {\displaystyle Z\subseteq R} then Z ⊆ L ∩ R . {\displaystyle Z ...

    So if f is a function and x is in its domain, then f ′ x is f(x). f ″ X f ″ X is the image of a set X by f. If f is a function whose domain contains X this is {f(x):x∈X} [ ] 1. M[G] is the smallest model of ZF containing G and all elements of M. 2. [α] β is the set of all subsets of a set α of cardinality β, or of an ordered set α ...
