Subsections


Arc and Sector

The algebraic value of an arc is its lenght, the value of a sector is its area.


Semicircle

Semicircle[point A, point B]
Semicircle above the segment AB.


CircularArc

CircularArc[point M, point A, point B]
Circular arc with midpoint M between two points A and B. Note: point B does not have to lie on the arc.


CircumcircularArc

CircumcircularArc[point, point, point]
Circular arc through three points


Arc

Arc[conic c, point A, point B]
Conic section arc between two points A and B on the conic section c (circle or ellipse)

Arc[conic c, number t1, number t2]
Conic section arc between two parameter values t1 and t2 for the following parameter forms:


CircularSector

CircularSector[point M, point A, point B]
Circular sector with midpoint M between two points A and B. Note: point B does not have to lie on the arc.


CircumcircularSector

CircumcircularSector[point, point, point]
Circular sector through three points


Sector

Sector[conic c, point A, point B]
Conic section sector between two points A and B on the conic section c (circle or ellipse)

Sector[conic c, number t1, number t2]
Conic section sector between two parameter values t1 and t2 for the following parameter forms:
