  2. Midpoint circle algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midpoint_circle_algorithm

    A circle of radius 23 drawn by the Bresenham algorithm. In computer graphics, the midpoint circle algorithm is an algorithm used to determine the points needed for rasterizing a circle. It is a generalization of Bresenham's line algorithm. The algorithm can be further generalized to conic sections. [1] [2] [3]

  3. Mohr's circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohr's_circle

    Eliminating the parameter from these parametric equations will yield the non-parametric equation of the Mohr circle. This can be achieved by rearranging the equations for σ n {\displaystyle \sigma _{\mathrm {n} }} and τ n {\displaystyle \tau _{\mathrm {n} }} , first transposing the first term in the first equation and squaring both sides of ...

  4. Circle packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_packing

    The most efficient way to pack different-sized circles together is not obvious. In geometry, circle packing is the study of the arrangement of circles (of equal or varying sizes) on a given surface such that no overlapping occurs and so that no circle can be enlarged without creating an overlap.

  5. Apollonian gasket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollonian_gasket

    The size of each new circle is determined by Descartes' theorem, which states that, for any four mutually tangent circles, the radii of the circles obeys the equation (+ + +) = (+ + +). This equation may have a solution with a negative radius; this means that one of the circles (the one with negative radius) surrounds the other three.

  6. Tangent lines to circles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangent_lines_to_circles

    A circle is drawn centered on the midpoint M of the line segment OP, having diameter OP, where O is again the center of the circle C (cyan). The intersection points T 1 and T 2 of the circle C and the new circle are the tangent points for lines passing through P, by the following argument (tan).

  7. 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.

  8. Apollonian circles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollonian_circles

    Every blue circle intersects every red circle at a right angle. Every red circle passes through the two points C, D, and every blue circle separates the two points. In geometry, Apollonian circles are two families of circles such that every circle in the first family intersects every circle in the second family orthogonally, and vice versa.

  9. Epitrochoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epitrochoid

    The epitrochoid with R = 3, r = 1 and d = 1/2. In geometry, an epitrochoid (/ ɛ p ɪ ˈ t r ɒ k ɔɪ d / or / ɛ p ɪ ˈ t r oʊ k ɔɪ d /) is a roulette traced by a point attached to a circle of radius r rolling around the outside of a fixed circle of radius R, where the point is at a distance d from the center of the exterior circle.
