Geometry

Example:

radical_axis(circle(((x+2)²+y²) =
8),circle(((x-2)²+y²) = 8)) returns line(x=0)

reciprocation

Given a circle, returns the poles (points) of given polar lines

or the polar lines of given poles (points).

reciprocation(circle, point)

or

reciprocation(circle, line)

or

reciprocation(circle, list)

Example:

reciprocation(circle(x^2+y^2=1),{point(1/
3,0), line(x=2)}) returns [line(x=3), point(1/
2, 0)]

single_inter

Returns the intersection of curve1 and curve2 that is

closest to point.

single_inter(curve1, curve2, point)

Example:

single_inter(line(y=x),circle(x^2+y^2=1),
point(1,1)) returns point(((1+i)* √2)/2)

vector

Creates a vector from point1 to point2. With one point as

argument, the origin is used as the tail of the vector.

vector(point1, point2) or vector(point)

Example:

vector(point(1,1), point(3,0)) creates a vector

from (1, 1) to (3, 0).

vertices

Returns a list of the vertices of a polygon.

vertices(polygon)

vertices_abca

Returns the closed list of the vertices of a polygon.

vertices_abca(polygon)
