projective geometry

  • Projective drawingThe sight lines drawn from the image in the reality plane (RP) to the artist's eye intersect the picture plane (PP) to form a projective, or perspective, drawing. The horizontal line drawn parallel to PP corresponds to the horizon. Early perspective experimenters sometimes used translucent paper or glass for the picture plane, which they drew on while looking through a small hole to keep their focus steady.
    In projective geometry: Projective conic sections

    …curves and surfaces in higher-dimensional spaces can be unified through projections. For example, Isaac Newton (1643–1727) showed that all plane curves defined by polynomials in x and y of degree 3 (the highest power of the variables is 3) can be obtained as projective images of just five types…
