harmonic_conjugate

Returns the harmonic conjugate of 3 points. Specifically,

returns the harmonic conjugate of point3 with respect to

point1 and point2. Also accepts three parallel or concurrent

lines; in this case, it returns the equation of the harmonic

conjugate line.

harmonic_conjugate(point1, point2, point3)

or

harmonic_conjugate(line1, line2, line3)

Example:

harmonic_conjugate(point(0, 0), point(3, 0),
point(4, 0)) returns point(12/5, 0)

harmonic_division

Returns the harmonic conjugate of 3 points. Specifically,

returns the harmonic conjugate of point3 with respect to

point1 and point2 and stores the result in the variable var.

Also accepts three parallel or concurrent lines; in this case, it

returns the equation of the harmonic conjugate line.

harmonic_division(point1, point2, point3, var)

or

harmonic_division(line1, line2, line3, var)

Example:

harmonic_division(point(0, 0), point(3, 0),
point(4, 0), p) returns point(12/5, 0) and stores it

in the variable p

isobarycenter

Returns the hypothetical center of mass of a set of points.

Works like barycenter but assumes that all points have equal

weight.

isobarycenter(point1, point2, …,pointn)

Example: isobarycenter(–3,3,3*√3*i) returns

point(3*√3*i/3), which is equivalent to (0,√3).

is_harmonic

Tests whether or not 4 points are in a harmonic division or

range. Returns 1 if they are or 0 otherwise.
is_harmonic(point1, point2, point3, point4)

is_harmonic(point1, point2, point3, point4)
