  2. Rotation (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_(mathematics)

    This (common) fixed point or center is called the center of rotation and is usually identified with the origin. The rotation group is a point stabilizer in a broader group of (orientation-preserving) motions. For a particular rotation: The axis of rotation is a line of its fixed points. They exist only in n = 3.

  3. Circumcircle - Wikipedia

    Hence, given the radius, r, center, P c, a point on the circle, P 0 and a unit normal of the plane containing the circle, ⁠ ^, ⁠ one parametric equation of the circle starting from the point P 0 and proceeding in a positively oriented (i.e., right-handed) sense about ⁠ ^ ⁠ is the following:

  4. Circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle

    where a is the radius of the circle, (,) are the polar coordinates of a generic point on the circle, and (,) are the polar coordinates of the centre of the circle (i.e., r 0 is the distance from the origin to the centre of the circle, and φ is the anticlockwise angle from the positive x axis to the line connecting the origin to the centre of ...

  5. Midpoint circle algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midpoint_circle_algorithm

    But when looking at a sphere, the integer radius of some adjacent circles is the same, but it is not expected to have the same exact circle adjacent to itself in the same hemisphere. Instead, a circle of the same radius needs a different determinant, to allow the curve to come in slightly closer to the center or extend out farther.

  6. Gauss circle problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss_circle_problem

    Gauss's circle problem asks how many points there are inside this circle of the form (,) where and are both integers. Since the equation of this circle is given in Cartesian coordinates by x 2 + y 2 = r 2 {\displaystyle x^{2}+y^{2}=r^{2}} , the question is equivalently asking how many pairs of integers m and n there are such that

  7. Centroid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centroid

    Find the centroids of these two rectangles by drawing the diagonals. Draw a line joining the centroids. The centroid of the shape must lie on this line . Divide the shape into two other rectangles, as shown in fig 3. Find the centroids of these two rectangles by drawing the diagonals. Draw a line joining the centroids.

  8. Nine-point circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine-point_circle

    The center of all rectangular hyperbolas that pass through the vertices of a triangle lies on its nine-point circle. Examples include the well-known rectangular hyperbolas of Keipert, Jeřábek and Feuerbach. This fact is known as the Feuerbach conic theorem. The nine point circle and the 16 tangent circles of the orthocentric system

  9. Osculating circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osculating_circle

    This circle, which is the one among all tangent circles at the given point that approaches the curve most tightly, was named circulus osculans (Latin for "kissing circle") by Leibniz. The center and radius of the osculating circle at a given point are called center of curvature and radius of curvature of the curve at that
