In geometry, a line segment is a part of a straight line that is bounded by two distinct end points, and contains every point on the line that is between its endpoints. It is a special case of an arc , with zero curvature .
String art, created with thread and paper A string art representing a projection of the 8-dimensional 4 21 polytope Quadratic Béziers in string art: The end points (•) and control point (×) define the quadratic Bézier curve (⋯). The arc is a segment of a parabola.
Elements of art are stylistic features that are included within an art piece to help the artist communicate. [1] The seven most common elements include line, shape, texture, form, space, color and value, with the additions of mark making, and materiality.
A form is an artist's way of using elements of art, principles of design, and media. Form, as an element of art, is three-dimensional and encloses space. Like a shape, a form has length and width, but it also has depth. Forms are either geometric or free-form, and can be symmetrical or asymmetrical.
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.
Line segment, part of a line bounded by two end points; Circular segment, the region of a circle cut off from the rest by a secant or chord; Spherical segment, the solid defined by cutting a sphere with a pair of parallel planes; Arc (geometry), a closed segment of a differentiable curve
In geometry, an edge is a particular type of line segment joining two vertices in a polygon, polyhedron, or higher-dimensional polytope. [1] In a polygon, an edge is a line segment on the boundary, [2] and is often called a polygon side. In a polyhedron or more generally a polytope, an edge is a line segment where two faces (or polyhedron sides ...
Line art or line drawing is any image that consists of distinct straight lines or curved lines placed against a background (usually plain). Two-dimensional or three-dimensional objects are often represented through shade (darkness) or hue . Line art can use lines of different colors, although line art is usually monochromatic.
