... plane consists of a set of lines, a set of points, and a relation between points and lines called incidence, having the following properties Given any two distinct points, there is ... Given any two distinct lines, there is exactly one point incident with both of them ... There are four points such that no line is incident with more than two of them ...
... then obtained by drawing lines from every point of this spiral perpendicular to its axis ... cone which has the generating line of the cylinder passing through the initial point of the spiral for its axis ... From every point of the curve of intersection, perpendiculars are drawn to the axis ...
... The geometric definition of a constructible point is as follows ... First, for any two distinct points P and Q in the plane, let L(P, Q ) denote the unique line through P and Q, and let C (P, Q ) denote the unique circle ... Then a point Z is constructible from E, F, G and H if either Z is in the intersection of L(E, F ) and L(G, H ), where L(E, F ) ≠ L(G, H ) Z is in the intersection of C (E, F ) and C (G, H ), where C (E, F ) ≠ C (G ...

... The lower line, y ≈ 0.267n which connects the points for n = 30, 60, and 90 is misleading ... If the plot were continued, there would be points below it ... slope of a line (through the origin) is, there will eventually be points of the plot below the line ...
Famous quotes containing the word points:
“Sometimes apparent resemblances of character will bring two men together and for a certain time unite them. But their mistake gradually becomes evident, and they are astonished to find themselves not only far apart, but even repelled, in some sort, at all their points of contact.”
—Sébastien-Roch Nicolas De Chamfort (1741–1794)
“The dominant metaphor of conceptual relativism, that of differing points of view, seems to betray an underlying paradox. Different points of view make sense, but only if there is a common co-ordinate system on which to plot them; yet the existence of a common system belies the claim of dramatic incomparability.”
—Donald Davidson (b. 1917)
“Mankind is not a circle with a single center but an ellipse with two focal points of which facts are one and ideas the other.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
