Properties
- An isotropic line is perpendicular to itself
- The euclidean distance between two points on an isotropic line is zero (hence null line)
- The union of two conjugate isotropic lines is a circle
- The point at infinity of an isotropic line is always one of the two circular points at infinity
- If an isotropic line is rotated 90 degrees its image is itself

Famous quotes containing the word properties:
“The reason why men enter into society, is the preservation of their property; and the end why they choose and authorize a legislative, is, that there may be laws made, and rules set, as guards and fences to the properties of all the members of the society: to limit the power, and moderate the dominion, of every part and member of the society.”
—John Locke (1632–1704)
“A drop of water has the properties of the sea, but cannot exhibit a storm. There is beauty of a concert, as well as of a flute; strength of a host, as well as of a hero.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
