2. Line–plane intersection - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line–plane_intersection

   The three possible plane-line relationships in three dimensions. (Shown in each case is only a portion of the plane, which extends infinitely far.) In analytic geometry, the intersection of a line and a plane in three-dimensional space can be the empty set, a point, or a line. It is the entire line if that line is embedded in the plane, and is ...

3. Intersection (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

   Line–plane intersection. The intersection of a line and a plane in general position in three dimensions is a point. Commonly a line in space is represented parametrically ((), (), ()) and a plane by an equation + + =. Inserting the parameter representation into the equation yields the linear equation

4. Intersection curve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection_curve

   The intersection of two planes. The analytic determination of the intersection curve of two surfaces is easy only in simple cases; for example: a) the intersection of two planes, b) plane section of a quadric (sphere, cylinder, cone, etc.), c) intersection of two quadrics in special cases. For the general case, literature provides algorithms ...

5. Power of a point - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_of_a_point

   The power diagram of a set of circles divides the plane into regions within which the circle minimizing the power is constant. More generally, French mathematician Edmond Laguerre defined the power of a point with respect to any algebraic curve in a similar way.

6. Line–line intersection - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line–line_intersection

   Assume that we want to find intersection of two infinite lines in 2-dimensional space, defined as a 1 x + b 1 y + c 1 = 0 and a 2 x + b 2 y + c 2 = 0. We can represent these two lines in line coordinates as U 1 = (a 1, b 1, c 1) and U 2 = (a 2, b 2, c 2). The intersection P′ of two lines is then simply given by [4]

7. Planar graph - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planar_graph

   In graph theory, a planar graph is a graph that can be embedded in the plane, i.e., it can be drawn on the plane in such a way that its edges intersect only at their endpoints. In other words, it can be drawn in such a way that no edges cross each other. [1] [2] Such a drawing is called a plane graph, or a planar embedding of the graph.

8. Intersection - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection

   The intersection (red) of two disks (white and red with black boundaries). The circle (black) intersects the line (purple) in two points (red). The disk (yellow) intersects the line in the line segment between the two red points. The intersection of D and E is shown in grayish purple. The intersection of A with any of B, C, D, or E is the empty ...

9. Plane (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

   In mathematics, a plane is a two-dimensional space or flat surface that extends indefinitely. A plane is the two-dimensional analogue of a point (zero dimensions), a line (one dimension) and three-dimensional space. When working exclusively in two-dimensional Euclidean space, the definite article is used, so the Euclidean plane refers to the ...
