  2. Dividing a circle into areas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dividing_a_circle_into_areas

    The number of points (n), chords (c) and regions (r G) for first 6 terms of Moser's circle problem. In geometry, the problem of dividing a circle into areas by means of an inscribed polygon with n sides in such a way as to maximise the number of areas created by the edges and diagonals, sometimes called Moser's circle problem (named after Leo Moser), has a solution by an inductive method.

  3. Rule of thirds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_thirds

    The horizon in the photograph is on the horizontal line dividing the lower third of the photo from the upper two-thirds. The tree is at the intersection of two lines, sometimes called a power point [1] or a crash point. [2] The rule of thirds is a rule of thumb for composing visual art such as designs, films, paintings, and photographs. [3]

  4. Composition (visual arts) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composition_(visual_arts)

    The rule of thirds is a composition guide that states that arranging the important features of an image on or near the horizontal and vertical lines that would divide the image into thirds horizontally and vertically is visually pleasing.

  5. Geodesic polyhedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geodesic_polyhedron

    For example, the icosahedron is {3,5+} 1,0, and pentakis dodecahedron, {3,5+} 1,1 is seen as a regular dodecahedron with pentagonal faces divided into 5 triangles. The primary face of the subdivision is called a principal polyhedral triangle (PPT) or the breakdown structure. Calculating a single PPT allows the entire figure to be created.

  6. Cantor set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantor_set

    This process of removing middle thirds is a simple example of a finite subdivision rule. The complement of the Cantor ternary set is an example of a fractal string . In arithmetical terms, the Cantor set consists of all real numbers of the unit interval [ 0 , 1 ] {\displaystyle [0,1]} that do not require the digit 1 in order to be expressed as ...

  7. Half-space (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-space_(geometry)

    More generally, a half-space is either of the two parts into which a hyperplane divides an n-dimensional space. [2] That is, the points that are not incident to the hyperplane are partitioned into two convex sets (i.e., half-spaces), such that any subspace connecting a point in one set to a point in the other must intersect the hyperplane.

  8. Manipulative (mathematics education) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manipulative_(mathematics...

    Pattern blocks can also serve to provide students with an understanding of fractions; because pattern blocks are sized to fit to each other (for instance, six triangles make up a hexagon), they provide a concrete experiences with halves, thirds, and sixths. Adults tend to use pattern blocks to create geometric works of art such as mosaics.

  9. Dividing a square into similar rectangles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dividing_a_square_into...

    However, there are three distinct ways of partitioning a square into three similar rectangles: [1] [2] The trivial solution given by three congruent rectangles with aspect ratio 3:1. The solution in which two of the three rectangles are congruent and the third one has twice the side length of the other two, where the rectangles have aspect ...
