The metric of the model on the half-plane, { , >}, is: = + ()where s measures the length along a (possibly curved) line. The straight lines in the hyperbolic plane (geodesics for this metric tensor, i.e., curves which minimize the distance) are represented in this model by circular arcs perpendicular to the x-axis (half-circles whose centers are on the x-axis) and straight vertical rays ...
The lower half-plane is the set of points (,) with < instead. Arbitrary oriented half-planes can be obtained via a planar rotation. Half-planes are an example of two-dimensional half-space. A half-plane can be split in two quadrants.
In geometry, a half-space is either of the two parts into which a plane divides the three-dimensional Euclidean space. [1] If the space is two-dimensional, then a half-space is called a half-plane (open or closed). [2] [3] A half-space in a one-dimensional space is called a half-line [4] or ray.
In this case, the half planes can be described by a point P of their intersection, and three vectors b 0, b 1 and b 2 such that P + b 0, P + b 1 and P + b 2 belong respectively to the intersection line, the first half plane, and the second half plane. The dihedral angle of these two half planes is defined by
The point on the plane in terms of the original coordinates can be found from this point using the above relationships between and , between and , and between and ; the distance in terms of the original coordinates is the same as the distance in terms of the revised coordinates.
The distance from a point to a plane in three-dimensional Euclidean space [7] The distance between two lines in three-dimensional Euclidean space [8] The distance from a point to a curve can be used to define its parallel curve, another curve all of whose points have the same distance to the given curve.

Let be a metric space with distance function .Let be a set of indices and let () be a tuple (indexed collection) of nonempty subsets (the sites) in the space .The Voronoi cell, or Voronoi region, , associated with the site is the set of all points in whose distance to is not greater than their distance to the other sites , where is any index different from .
Poincaré disk with hyperbolic parallel lines Poincaré disk model of the truncated triheptagonal tiling.. In geometry, the Poincaré disk model, also called the conformal disk model, is a model of 2-dimensional hyperbolic geometry in which all points are inside the unit disk, and straight lines are either circular arcs contained within the disk that are orthogonal to the unit circle or ...
