2. Hesse normal form - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hesse_normal_form

   Distance from the origin O to the line E calculated with the Hesse normal form. Normal vector in red, line in green, point O shown in blue. In analytic geometry, the Hesse normal form (named after Otto Hesse) is an equation used to describe a line in the Euclidean plane, a plane in Euclidean space, or a hyperplane in higher dimensions.

3. Normal (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

   In geometry, a normal is an object (e.g. a line, ray, or vector) that is perpendicular to a given object. For example, the normal line to a plane curve at a given point is the line perpendicular to the tangent line to the curve at the point. A normal vector of length one is called a unit normal vector.

4. 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 ...

5. Euclidean planes in three-dimensional space - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_planes_in_three...

   The attitude of a lattice plane is the orientation of the line normal to the plane, [12] and is described by the plane's Miller indices. In three-space a family of planes (a series of parallel planes) can be denoted by its Miller indices ( hkl ), [ 13 ] [ 14 ] so the family of planes has an attitude common to all its constituent planes.

6. 3D projection - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_projection

   If the normal of the viewing plane (the camera direction) is parallel to one of the primary axes (which is the x, y, or z axis), the mathematical transformation is as follows; To project the 3D point , , onto the 2D point , using an orthographic projection parallel to the y axis (where positive y represents forward direction - profile view ...

7. Normal plane (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

   The normal section of a surface at a particular point is the curve produced by the intersection of that surface with a normal plane. [1] [2] [3] The curvature of the normal section is called the normal curvature. If the surface is bow or cylinder shaped, the maximum and the minimum of these curvatures are the principal curvatures.
