Euclidean geometry is a mathematical system attributed to ancient Greek mathematician Euclid, which he described in his textbook on geometry, Elements.Euclid's approach consists in assuming a small set of intuitively appealing axioms (postulates) and deducing many other propositions from these.
A log line or logline is a brief (usually one-sentence) summary of a television program, film, short film or book, that states the central conflict of the story, often providing both a synopsis of the story's plot, and an emotional "hook" to stimulate interest. [1] A one-sentence program summary in TV Guide is a log line. [2] "
A thesis (pl.: theses), or dissertation [note 1] (abbreviated diss.), [2] is a document submitted in support of candidature for an academic degree or professional qualification presenting the author's research and findings. [3] In some contexts, the word thesis or a cognate is used for part of a bachelor's or master's course, while dissertation ...
To get a true view (length in the projection is equal to length in 3D space) of one of the lines: SU in this example, projection 3 is drawn with hinge line H 2,3 parallel to S 2 U 2. To get an end view of SU, projection 4 is drawn with hinge line H 3,4 perpendicular to S 3 U 3. The perpendicular distance d gives the shortest distance between PR ...
The thirteen books cover Euclidean geometry and the ancient Greek version of elementary number theory. With the exception of Autolycus' On the Moving Sphere, the Elements is one of the oldest extant Greek mathematical treatises, [9] and it is the oldest extant axiomatic deductive treatment of mathematics.
In mathematics, algebraic geometry and analytic geometry are two closely related subjects. While algebraic geometry studies algebraic varieties, analytic geometry deals with complex manifolds and the more general analytic spaces defined locally by the vanishing of analytic functions of several complex variables. The deep relation between these ...
Thus, the dual of a quadrangle, a (4 3, 6 2) configuration of four points and six lines, is a quadrilateral, a (6 2, 4 3) configuration of six points and four lines. [ 4 ] The set of all points on a line, called a projective range , has as its dual a pencil of lines , the set of all lines on a point, in two dimensions, or a pencil of ...
