If G is the intersection of this tangent and the axis, the line passing through G and perpendicular to CD is the directrix (solid green). The focus (F) is at the intersection of the axis and a line passing through E and perpendicular to CD (dotted yellow). The latus rectum is the line segment within the curve (solid yellow).
We may approximate a circle of radius from an arbitrary number of cubic Bézier curves. Let the arc start at point A {\displaystyle \mathbf {A} } and end at point B {\displaystyle \mathbf {B} } , placed at equal distances above and below the x-axis, spanning an arc of angle θ = 2 ϕ {\displaystyle \theta =2\phi } :

A two-dimensional Bézier surface can be defined as a parametric surface where the position of a point p as a function of the parametric coordinates u, v is given by: [1] p ( u , v ) = ∑ i = 0 n ∑ j = 0 m B i n ( u ) B j m ( v ) k i , j {\displaystyle \mathbf {p} (u,v)=\sum _{i=0}^{n}\sum _{j=0}^{m}B_{i}^{n}(u)\,B_{j}^{m}(v)\,\mathbf {k ...
Subdivide now each line segment of this polygon with the ratio : and connect the points you get. This way you arrive at the new polygon having one fewer segment. Repeat the process until you arrive at the single point – this is the point of the curve corresponding to the parameter .
In mathematics and its applications, the signed distance function or signed distance field (SDF) is the orthogonal distance of a given point x to the boundary of a set Ω in a metric space (such as the surface of a geometric shape), with the sign determined by whether or not x is in the interior of Ω.
The 2nd Brocard cubic is the locus of a point X for which the pole of the line XX* in the circumconic through X and X* lies on the line of the circumcenter and the symmedian point (i.e., the Brocard axis). The cubic passes through the centroid, symmedian point, both Fermat points, both isodynamic points, the Parry point, other triangle centers ...
An example Bézier triangle with control points marked. A cubic Bézier triangle is a surface with the equation (,,) = (+ +) = + + + + + + + + +where α 3, β 3, γ 3, α 2 β, αβ 2, β 2 γ, βγ 2, αγ 2, α 2 γ and αβγ are the control points of the triangle and s, t, u (with 0 ≤ s, t, u ≤ 1 and s + t + u = 1) are the barycentric coordinates inside the triangle.
