  2. Perpendicular bisector construction of a quadrilateral

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perpendicular_bisector...

    First iteration of the perpendicular bisector construction An equivalent construction can be obtained by letting the vertices of Q ( i + 1 ) {\displaystyle Q^{(i+1)}} be the circumcenters of the 4 triangles formed by selecting combinations of 3 vertices of Q ( i ) {\displaystyle Q^{(i)}} .

  3. Bisection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bisection

    The interior perpendicular bisector of a side of a triangle is the segment, falling entirely on and inside the triangle, of the line that perpendicularly bisects that side. The three perpendicular bisectors of a triangle's three sides intersect at the circumcenter (the center of the circle through the three vertices). Thus any line through a ...

    Construction for the pole of a planar displacement. First, select two points A and B in the moving body and locate the corresponding points in the two positions; see the illustration. Construct the perpendicular bisectors to the two segments A 1 A 2 and B 1 B 2. The intersection P of these two bisectors is the pole of the planar displacement.

  6. Special cases of Apollonius' problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_cases_of_Apollonius...

    To construct the perpendicular bisector of the line segment between two points requires two circles, each centered on an endpoint and passing through the other endpoint (operation 2). The intersection points of these two circles (operation 4) are equidistant from the endpoints. The line through them (operation 1) is the perpendicular bisector.

  7. Locus (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    The set of points equidistant from two points is a perpendicular bisector to the line segment connecting the two points. [8] The set of points equidistant from two intersecting lines is the union of their two angle bisectors. All conic sections are loci: [9] Circle: the set of points at constant distance (the radius) from a fixed point (the ...

  8. Straightedge and compass construction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straightedge_and_compass...

    In geometry, straightedge-and-compass construction – also known as ruler-and-compass construction, Euclidean construction, or classical construction – is the construction of lengths, angles, and other geometric figures using only an idealized ruler and a pair of compasses.

    Construct the line segment BB' and using a hyperbolic ruler, construct the line OI" such that OI" is perpendicular to BB' and parallel to B'I". Then, line OA is the angle bisector for ᗉ IAI'. [3] Case 2c: IB' is ultraparallel to I'B. Using the ultraparallel theorem, construct the common perpendicular of IB' and I'B, CC'. Let the intersection ...
