    The graph of the equation ... is the tangent line at point ... outside the hyperbola the intersection points of its polar with the hyperbola are the tangency ...

  3. 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]

  4. Confocal conic sections - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confocal_conic_sections

    Considering the pencils of confocal ellipses and hyperbolas (see lead diagram) one gets from the geometrical properties of the normal and tangent at a point (the normal of an ellipse and the tangent of a hyperbola bisect the angle between the lines to the foci). Any ellipse of the pencil intersects any hyperbola orthogonally (see diagram).

  5. Feuerbach hyperbola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feuerbach_hyperbola

    Feuerbach Hyperbola. In geometry, the Feuerbach hyperbola is a rectangular hyperbola passing through important triangle centers such as the Orthocenter, Gergonne point, Nagel point and Schiffler point. The center of the hyperbola is the Feuerbach point, the point of tangency of the incircle and the nine-point circle. [1]

  6. Hyperbolic functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_functions

    A ray through the unit hyperbola x 2 − y 2 = 1 at the point (cosh a, sinh a), where a is twice the area between the ray, the hyperbola, and the x-axis. For points on the hyperbola below the x-axis, the area is considered negative (see animated version with comparison with the trigonometric (circular) functions).

  7. Orthoptic (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthoptic_(geometry)

    If a tangent contains the point (x 0, y 0), off the parabola, then the equation = + = holds, which has two solutions m 1 and m 2 corresponding to the two tangents passing (x 0, y 0). The free term of a reduced quadratic equation is always the product of its solutions.

  8. Poincaré half-plane model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poincaré_half-plane_model

    Construct the tangent to the circle at its intersection with that horizontal line. The midpoint between the intersection of the tangent with the vertical line and the given non-central point is the center of the model circle. Draw the model circle around that new center and passing through the given non-central point. If the two given points ...

  9. Hyperboloid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperboloid

    This implies near every point the intersection of the hyperboloid and its tangent plane at the point consists of two branches of curve that have distinct tangents at the point. In the case of the one-sheet hyperboloid, these branches of curves are lines and thus the one-sheet hyperboloid is a doubly ruled surface.
