Locus vs Cissoid - What's the difference?

locus | cissoid |


As nouns the difference between locus and cissoid

is that locus is a place or locality, especially a centre of activity or the scene of a crime while cissoid is (geometry) any of a family of curves defined as the locus of a point, p'', on a line from a given fixed point and intersecting two given curves, ''c''1 and ''c''2, where the distance along the line from ''c''1 to ''p'' remains constant and equal to the distance from ''p'' to ''c 2.

Locus vs Glissette - What's the difference?

locus | glissette |


In mathematics terms the difference between locus and glissette

is that locus is the set of all points whose coordinates satisfy a given equation or condition while glissette is the locus described by any point attached to a curve that moves continuously along another fixed curve, the movable curve having no rotation at any instant.

Locus vs Conchoid - What's the difference?

locus | conchoid |


As nouns the difference between locus and conchoid

is that locus is a place or locality, especially a centre of activity or the scene of a crime while conchoid is any of a family of curves defined as the locus of points p, such that each p is on a line that passes through a given fixed point P and intersects a given curve, C, and the distance from p to the point of intersection with C is a specified constant (note that for nontrivial cases two such points p satisfy the criteria, and the resultant curve has two parts).
