Two intersecting lines. In Euclidean geometry, the intersection of a line and a line can be the empty set, a point, or another line.Distinguishing these cases and finding the intersection have uses, for example, in computer graphics, motion planning, and collision detection.
Aristotle's axiom asserts that a line PQ exists which is parallel to AB but greater in length. Note that: 1) the line AB does not need to intersect OY or OX; 2) P and Q do not need to lie on the lines OY and OX, but their rays (i.e. the infinite continuation of these lines).
For example, the first Napoleon point is the point of concurrency of the three lines each from a vertex to the centroid of the equilateral triangle drawn on the exterior of the opposite side from the vertex. A generalization of this notion is the Jacobi point. The de Longchamps point is the point of concurrence of several lines with the Euler line.
Carnot's theorem: if three perpendiculars on triangle sides intersect in a common point F, then blue area = red area. Carnot's theorem (named after Lazare Carnot) describes a necessary and sufficient condition for three lines that are perpendicular to the (extended) sides of a triangle having a common point of intersection.
Intersecting lines share a single point in common. Coincidental lines coincide with each other—every point that is on either one of them is also on the other. Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect at right angles. [8] In three-dimensional space, skew lines are lines that are not in the same plane and thus do not intersect each other.
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 ...
Serpentine lines from Hogarth's The Analysis of Beauty. Line of beauty is a term and a theory in art or aesthetics used to describe an S-shaped curved line (a serpentine line) appearing within an object, as the boundary line of an object, or as a virtual boundary line formed by the composition of several objects.
Line work can be used to represent colors, typically by using the same type of hatch to represent particular tones. For example, red might be made up of lightly spaced lines, whereas green could be made of two layers of perpendicular dense lines, resulting in a realistic image.
