Vanishing point

A vanishing point is a point on the image plane of a perspective drawing where the two-dimensional perspective projections of mutually parallel lines in three-dimensional space appear to converge. When the set of parallel lines is perpendicular to a picture plane, the construction is known as one-point perspective, and their vanishing point corresponds to the oculus, or "eye point", from which the image should be viewed for correct perspective geometry. Traditional linear drawings use objects with one to three sets of parallels, defining one to three vanishing points. Italian humanist polymath and architect Leon Battista Alberti first introduced the concept in his treatise on perspective in art, De pictura, written in 1435. (Wikipedia).

Null points and null lines | Universal Hyperbolic Geometry 12 | NJ Wildberger

Null points and null lines are central in universal hyperbolic geometry. By definition a null point is just a point which lies on its dual line, and dually a null line is just a line which passes through its dual point. We extend the rational parametrization of the unit circle to the proj

C72 What to do about the singular point

Now that we can calculate a solution at analytical points, what can we do about singular points. It turns out, not all singular points are created equal. The regular and irregular singular point.

What are collinear points

👉 Learn essential definitions of points, lines, and planes. A point defines a position in space. A line is a set of points. A line can be created by a minimum of two points. A plane is a flat surface made up of at least three points. A plane contains infinite number of lines. A ray is a li

What is the midpoint formula and how do you find the midpoint between

👉 Learn how to find the midpoint between two points. The midpoint between two points is the point halfway the line joining two given points in the coordinate plane. To find the midpoint between two points we add the x-coordinates of the two given points and divide the result by 2. This giv
