    2", meaning that this is the second of three 6-crossing 3-component links to be listed. [6] [7] The Conway notation for the Borromean rings, ".1", is an abbreviated description of the standard link diagram for this link. [8]

    The optimal packing of 15 circles in a square Optimal solutions have been proven for n ≤ 30. Packing circles in a rectangle; Packing circles in an isosceles right triangle - good estimates are known for n < 300. Packing circles in an equilateral triangle - Optimal solutions are known for n < 13, and conjectures are available for n < 28. [14]

  4. Circle packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_packing

    A compact binary circle packing with the most similarly sized circles possible. [7] It is also the densest possible packing of discs with this size ratio (ratio of 0.6375559772 with packing fraction (area density) of 0.910683). [8] There are also a range of problems which permit the sizes of the circles to be non-uniform.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine-point_circle

    The circle is an instance of a conic section and the nine-point circle is an instance of the general nine-point conic that has been constructed with relation to a triangle ABC and a fourth point P, where the particular nine-point circle instance arises when P is the orthocenter of ABC.

  6. Johnson circles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnson_circles

    In geometry, a set of Johnson circles comprises three circles of equal radius r sharing one common point of intersection H.In such a configuration the circles usually have a total of four intersections (points where at least two of them meet): the common point H that they all share, and for each of the three pairs of circles one more intersection point (referred here as their 2-wise intersection).

    The result corresponds to ⁠ 256 / 81 ⁠ (3.16049...) as an approximate value of π. [3] Book 3 of Euclid's Elements deals with the properties of circles. Euclid's definition of a circle is: A circle is a plane figure bounded by one curved line, and such that all straight lines drawn from a certain point within it to the bounding line, are equal.

  8. Circle packing in an equilateral triangle - Wikipedia

    Circle packing in an equilateral triangle is a packing problem in discrete mathematics where the objective is to pack n unit circles into the smallest possible equilateral triangle. Optimal solutions are known for n < 13 and for any triangular number of circles, and conjectures are available for n < 28. [1] [2] [3]
