Since lines are great circles in spherical geometry, two lines always intersect. In fact, any two lines on a sphere intersect at two points, as shown at the right. take note Key Concept Spherical Geometry—Triangle Angle-Sum Theorem The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is always greater than 180. A triangle in spherical geometry is formed by the intersection of three arcs that lie on different great circles. Recall that the proof of the Triangle Angle-Sum Theorem in Euclidean geometry uses the Euclidean Parallel Postulate, which does not hold in spherical geometry. So the Euclidean Triangle Angle-Sum Theorem is invalid in spherical geometry. Because the sides of a triangle in spherical geometry are curved, the sum of the measures of the angles is always greater than 180. Problem 1 TEKS Process Standard (1)(D) Comparing Lines in Euclidean and Spherical Geometries A In Euclidean geometry, how many lines are parallel to a line ℓ through a point P that does not lie on the line? Draw a sketch to support your answer. There is exactly one line through point P that is parallel to line ℓ. B The statement in part (A) is the Parallel Postulate in Euclidean geometry. Is the Parallel Postulate true in spherical geometry? Explain. Draw a sketch to support your answer. In spherical geometry, a line is a great circle. Every line that contains point P will also intersect line ℓ. So there is no line through point P that is parallel to line ℓ. Think How can a sketch help you answer the question? A sketch can help you visualize lines on a sphere and whether they intersect. https://media.pearsoncmg.com/curriculum/math/hs2016_tx/html_books/tx_gm/homework_... 11/7/2016 Geometry, Student Text and Homework Helper Page 2 of 2 PearsonTEXAS.com Page 135 Copyright 2016 © Pearson Education, Inc. or its affiliate(s).

  • Some Intersection Theorems for Ordered Sets and Graphs

GRAHAM AT&T Bell Laboratories, Murray Hill, New Jersey 07974 and *Bell Communications Research, Morristown, New Jersey P. FRANKL C.N.R.S., Paris, France AND J. B. SHEARER' Universify of California, Berkeley, California Communicated by the Managing Editors Received May 22, 1984 A classical topic in combinatorics is the study of problems of the following type: What are the maximum families F of subsets of a finite set with the property that the intersection of any two sets in the family satisfies some specified condition? Typical restrictions on the intersections F n F of any F and F’ in F are: (i) FnF’# 0, where all FEF have k elements (Erdos, Ko, and Rado (1961)). (ii) IFn F’I > j (Katona (1964)). In this paper, we consider the following general question: For a given family B of subsets of [n] = { 1, 2,..., n}, what is the largest family F of subsets of [n] satsifying F,F’EF-FnFzB for some BE B. Of particular interest are those B for which the maximum families consist of so- called “kernel systems,” i.e., the family of all supersets of some fixed set in B. For example, we show that the set of all (cyclic) translates of a block of consecutive integers in [n] is such a family. It turns out rather unexpectedly that many of the results we obtain here depend strongly on properties of the well-known entropy function (from information theory).

  • Intersection of Convex Objects in Two and Three Dimensions
    Intersection of Convex Objects in Two and Three Dimensions B. CHAZELLE Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut AND D. P. DOBKIN Princeton University, Princeton, New Jersey Abstract. One of the basic geometric operations involves determining whether a pair of convex objects intersect. This problem is well understood in a model of computation in which the objects are given as input and their intersection is returned as output. For many applications, however, it may be assumed that the objects already exist within the computer and that the only output desired is a single piece of data giving a common point if the objects intersect or reporting no intersection if they are disjoint. For this problem, none of the previous lower bounds are valid and algorithms are proposed requiring sublinear time for their solution in two and three dimensions. Categories and Subject Descriptors: E.l [Data]: Data Structures; F.2.2 [Analysis of Algorithms]: Nonnumerical Algorithms and Problems General Terms: Algorithms, Theory, Verification Additional Key Words and Phrases: Convex sets, Fibonacci search, Intersection 1. Introduction This paper describes fast algorithms for testing the predicate, Do convex objects P and Q intersect? where an object is taken to be a line or a polygon in two dimensions or a plane or a polyhedron in three dimensions. The related problem Given convex objects P and Q, compute their intersection has been well studied, resulting in linear lower bounds and linear or quasi-linear upper bounds [2, 4, 11, 15-171.

    BULLETIN (New Series) OF THE AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY Volume 39, Number 4, Pages 563{571 S 0273-0979(02)00949-7 Article electronically published on July 9, 2002 Geometry: Euclid and beyond, by Robin Hartshorne, Springer-Verlag, New York, 2000, xi+526 pp., $49.95, ISBN 0-387-98650-2 1. Introduction The first geometers were men and women who reflected on their experiences while doing such activities as building small shelters and bridges, making pots, weaving cloth, building altars, designing decorations, or gazing into the heavens for portentous signs or navigational aides. Main aspects of geometry emerged from three strands of early human activity that seem to have occurred in most cultures: art/patterns, navigation/stargazing, and building structures. These strands developed more or less independently into varying studies and practices that eventually were woven into what we now call geometry. Art/Patterns: To produce decorations for their weaving, pottery, and other objects, early artists experimented with symmetries and repeating patterns. Later the study of symmetries of patterns led to tilings, group theory, crystallography, finite geometries, and in modern times to security codes and digital picture com- pactifications. Early artists also explored various methods of representing existing objects and living things. These explorations led to the study of perspective and then projective geometry and descriptive geometry, and (in the 20th century) to computer-aided graphics, the study of computer vision in robotics, and computer- generated movies (for example, Toy Story ). Navigation/Stargazing: For astrological, religious, agricultural, and other purposes, ancient humans attempted to understand the movement of heavenly bod- ies (stars, planets, Sun, and Moon) in the apparently hemispherical sky.

  • Complex Intersection Bodies
    COMPLEX INTERSECTION BODIES A. KOLDOBSKY, G. PAOURIS, AND M. ZYMONOPOULOU Abstract. We introduce complex intersection bodies and show that their properties and applications are similar to those of their real counterparts. In particular, we generalize Busemann's the- orem to the complex case by proving that complex intersection bodies of symmetric complex convex bodies are also convex. Other results include stability in the complex Busemann-Petty problem for arbitrary measures and the corresponding hyperplane inequal- ity for measures of complex intersection bodies. 1. Introduction The concept of an intersection body was introduced by Lutwak [37], as part of his dual Brunn-Minkowski theory. In particular, these bodies played an important role in the solution of the Busemann-Petty prob- lem. Many results on intersection bodies have appeared in recent years (see [10, 22, 34] and references there), but almost all of them apply to the real case. The goal of this paper is to extend the concept of an intersection body to the complex case. Let K and L be origin symmetric star bodies in Rn: Following [37], we say that K is the intersection body of L if the radius of K in every direction is equal to the volume of the central hyperplane section of L perpendicular to this direction, i.e. for every ξ 2 Sn−1; −1 ? kξkK = jL \ ξ j; (1) ? n where kxkK = minfa ≥ 0 : x 2 aKg, ξ = fx 2 R :(x; ξ) = 0g; and j · j stands for volume. By a theorem of Busemann [8] the intersection body of an origin symmetric convex body is also convex.

    Project 2: Euclidean & Spherical Geometry Applied to Course Topics You may work alone or with one other person. During class you will write down your top problems (unranked) and from this you will be assigned one problem. In this project, we will use intuition from previous Euclidean geometry knowledge along with experiences from hands-on models and/or research. The purpose of this assignment is an introduction to the concepts in the course syllabus as we explore diverse geometric perspectives. Project Components: a) Review content related to your problem that applies to the geometry of the plane / Euclidean geometry / flat geometry. For example, if you have Problem 1 then you might review the definitions of lines and how to calculate them, for Problem 9 you might review some information related to area and surface area, for Problem 10 you might review coordinate systems... You may use our book, the internet, or other sources. b) Why the topic is important in mathematics and the real-world? Conduct searches like \trian- gles are important" or a search word related to your problem and then (with and without quotations) words like important, interesting, useful, or real-life applications. You might also pick some specific fields to see if there are applications such as: Pythagorean theorem chemistry c) Summarize diverse spherical perspectives. You do not need to prove an answer or completely resolve the issue on the sphere. You should look for various perspectives related to spherical geometry, and summarize those in your own words. Try different combinations of search terms related to your problem along with words like sphere, spherical, earth, or spherical geometry.

  • Unsteadiness in Flow Over a Flat Plate at Angle-Of-Attack at Low Reynolds Numbers∗
    Unsteadiness in Flow over a Flat Plate at Angle-of-Attack at Low Reynolds Numbers∗ Kunihiko Taira,† William B. Dickson,‡ Tim Colonius,§ Michael H. Dickinson¶ California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, California, 91125 Clarence W. Rowleyk Princeton University, Princeton, New Jersey, 08544 Flow over an impulsively started low-aspect-ratio flat plate at angle-of-attack is inves- tigated for a Reynolds number of 300. Numerical simulations, validated by a companion experiment, are performed to study the influence of aspect ratio, angle of attack, and plan- form geometry on the interaction of the leading-edge and tip vortices and resulting lift and drag coefficients. Aspect ratio is found to significantly influence the wake pattern and the force experienced by the plate. For large aspect ratio plates, leading-edge vortices evolved into hairpin vortices that eventually detached from the plate, interacting with the tip vor- tices in a complex manner. Separation of the leading-edge vortex is delayed to some extent by having convective transport of the spanwise vorticity as observed in flow over elliptic, semicircular, and delta-shaped planforms. The time at which lift achieves its maximum is observed to be fairly constant over different aspect ratios, angles of attack, and planform geometries during the initial transient. Preliminary results are also presented for flow over plates with steady actuation near the leading edge. I. Introduction In recent years, flows around flapping insect wings have been investigated and, in particular, it has been observed that the leading-edge vortex (LEV) formed during stroke reversal remains stably attached throughout the wing stroke, greatly enhancing lift.1, 2 Such LEVs are found to be stable over a wide range of angles of attack and for Reynolds number over a range of Re ≈ O(102) − O(104).
