Braikenridge–Maclaurin theorem : ウィキペディア英語版 | Braikenridge–Maclaurin theorem
In geometry, the , named for 18th century British mathematicians William Braikenridge and Colin Maclaurin , is the converse to Pascal's theorem. It states that if the three intersection points of the three pairs of lines through opposite sides of a hexagon lie on a line ''L'', then the six vertices of the hexagon lie on a conic ''C''; the conic may be degenerate, as in Pappus's theorem. . The Braikenridge–Maclaurin theorem may be applied in the Braikenridge–Maclaurin construction, which is a synthetic construction of the conic defined by five points, by varying the sixth point. Namely, Pascal's theorem states that given six points on a conic (the vertices of a hexagon), the lines defined by opposite sides intersect in three collinear points. This can be reversed to construct the possible locations for a sixth point, given five existing ones. ==References==
