First we consider the intersection of two lines L 1 and L 2 in two-dimensional space, with line L 1 being defined by two distinct points (x 1, y 1) and (x 2, y 2), and line L 2 being defined by two distinct points (x 3, y 3) and (x 4, y 4). [2] The intersection P of line L 1 and L 2 can be defined using determinants.
Given three parallel lines, there is a line that intersects all three of them. There exist lines a and b, such that any line intersects a or b. If the lines a_1, a_2, and a_3 are pairwise parallel, then there is a permutation (i,j,k) of (1,2,3) such that any line g which intersects a_i and a_j also intersects a_k.
Lines A, B and C are concurrent in Y. In geometry, lines in a plane or higher-dimensional space are concurrent if they intersect at a single point.. The set of all lines through a point is called a pencil, and their common intersection is called the vertex of the pencil.
In set theory, a dichotomous relation R is such that either aRb, bRa, but not both. [1] A false dichotomy is an informal fallacy consisting of a supposed dichotomy which fails one or both of the conditions: it is not jointly exhaustive and/or not mutually exclusive. In its most common form, two entities are presented as if they are exhaustive ...
The intersection of A with any of B, C, D, or E is the empty set. In mathematics, the intersection of two or more objects is another object consisting of everything that is contained in all of the objects simultaneously. For example, in Euclidean geometry, when two lines in a plane are not parallel, their intersection is the point at
However, parallel (non-crossing) pairs of lines are less restricted in hyperbolic line arrangements than in the Euclidean plane: in particular, the relation of being parallel is an equivalence relation for Euclidean lines but not for hyperbolic lines. [51] The intersection graph of the lines in a hyperbolic arrangement can be an arbitrary ...
Cramer's paradox: The number of points of intersection of two higher-order curves can be greater than the number of arbitrary points needed to define one such curve. Elevator paradox : Elevators can seem to be mostly going in one direction, as if they were being manufactured in the middle of the building and being disassembled on the roof and ...
The widely accepted interpretation of, e.g. the Poggendorff and Hering illusions as manifestation of expansion of acute angles at line intersections, is an example of successful implementation of a "bottom-up," physiological explanation of a geometrical–optical illusion. Ponzo illusion in a purely schematic form and, below, with perspective clues
