  2. Line (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    Using this form, vertical lines correspond to equations with b = 0. One can further suppose either c = 1 or c = 0, ... Drawing of a line segment "AB" on the line "a"

  3. T-square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-square

    In addition to drawing horizontal lines, a T-square can be used with a set square to draw vertical or diagonal lines. [1] The T-square usually has a transparent edge made of plastic which should be free of nicks and cracks in order to provide smooth, straight lines. T-squares are also used in various industries, such as construction.

  4. Box-drawing characters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box-drawing_characters

    Box-drawing characters, also known as line-drawing characters, are a form of semigraphics widely used in text user interfaces to draw various geometric frames and boxes. These characters are characterized by being designed to be connected horizontally and/or vertically with adjacent characters, which requires proper alignment.

  5. Dividing line between metals and nonmetals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dividing_line_between...

    This line has been called the amphoteric line, [2] the metal-nonmetal line, [3] the metalloid line, [4] [5] the semimetal line, [6] or the staircase. [2] [n 1] While it has also been called the Zintl border [8] or the Zintl line [9] [10] these terms instead refer to a vertical line sometimes drawn between groups 13 and 14.

  6. Distance from a point to a line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Distance_from_a_point_to_a_line

    Draw the vertical line through P and label its intersection with the given line S. At any point T on the line, draw a right triangle TVU whose sides are horizontal and vertical line segments with hypotenuse TU on the given line and horizontal side of length |B| (see diagram). The vertical side of ∆TVU will have length |A| since the line has ...

  7. Line drawing algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_drawing_algorithm

    The simplest method of drawing a line involves directly calculating pixel positions from a line equation. Given a starting point (,) and an end point (,), points on the line fulfill the equation = +, with = = being the slope of the line.

  8. Schema for vertical declining dials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schema_for_vertical...

    From here, a long-line, at right-angles to it, is drawn. A line is drawn at right angles from the substyle height, so that it passes through that point. Its length is noted. The length is copied from the point to O'. This will become the centre used by circular protractor. Draw a line from here to crossing of the vertical and the long-line.

  9. Vertical bar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical_bar

    In chemistry, the vertical line is used in cell notation of electrochemical cells. Example, Zn | Zn 2+ || Cu 2+ | Cu Single vertical lines show components of the cell which do not mix, usually being in different phases. The double vertical line ( || ) is used to represent salt bridge; which is used to allow free moving ions to move.
