  2. Hyperbolic angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_angle

    If P 0 is taken to be the point (1, 1), P 1 the point (x 1, 1/x 1), and P 2 the point (x 2, 1/x 2), then the parallel condition requires that Q be the point (x 1 x 2, 1/x 1 1/x 2). It thus makes sense to define the hyperbolic angle from P 0 to an arbitrary point on the curve as a logarithmic function of the point's value of x. [1] [2]

  3. Hyperbola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbola

    This property provides a possibility to construct points of a hyperbola if the asymptotes and one point are given. This property of a hyperbola is an affine version of the 4-point-degeneration of Pascal's theorem. [13]

  4. Hyperbolic trajectory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_trajectory

    The eccentricity is directly related to the angle between the asymptotes. With eccentricity just over 1 the hyperbola is a sharp "v" shape. At = the asymptotes are at right angles. With > the asymptotes are more than 120° apart, and the periapsis distance is greater than the semi major axis. As eccentricity increases further the motion ...

  5. Unit hyperbola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_hyperbola

    The unit hyperbola is blue, its conjugate is green, and the asymptotes are red. In geometry, the unit hyperbola is the set of points (x,y) in the Cartesian plane that satisfy the implicit equation = In the study of indefinite orthogonal groups, the unit hyperbola forms the basis for an alternative radial length

  6. Oblate spheroidal coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblate_spheroidal_coordinates

    Figure 1: Coordinate isosurfaces for a point P (shown as a black sphere) in oblate spheroidal coordinates (μ, ν, φ). The z -axis is vertical, and the foci are at ±2 . The red oblate spheroid (flattened sphere) corresponds to μ = 1 , whereas the blue half-hyperboloid corresponds to ν = 45° .

  7. Kiepert conics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiepert_conics

    The center of the Kiepert hyperbola lies on the nine-point circle. The center is the midpoint of the line segment joining the isogonic centers of triangle A B C {\displaystyle ABC} which are the triangle centers X(13) and X(14) in the Encyclopedia of Triangle Centers.

  8. Hyperbolic coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_coordinates

    Hyperbolic coordinates plotted on the Euclidean plane: all points on the same blue ray share the same coordinate value u, and all points on the same red hyperbola share the same coordinate value v. In mathematics, hyperbolic coordinates are a method of locating points in quadrant I of the Cartesian plane

  9. Hyperbolic geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_geometry

    Lines through a given point P and asymptotic to line R. Non-intersecting lines in hyperbolic geometry also have properties that differ from non-intersecting lines in Euclidean geometry: For any line R and any point P which does not lie on R, in the plane containing line R and point P there are at least two distinct lines through P that do not ...
