Line and Triangle Examples

Points connecting two intersecting lines at an angle (or two sides of a triangle). Three sets of point coordinates for lines are generated with the function POLYPOINTS() and the lines are split to 10 segments to have ten points for each of the three line sets. Two lines are connected with the point sets on the lines diagonally opposite points

pointcoords=POLYPOINTS(3,100,100);
s=LINESPLIT(pointcoords,10,true)
lines1=(s[0].rowpush(s[1])).m(r=>r.flatten())
lines2=(s[1].rowpush(s[2])).m(r=>r.flatten())
lines3=(s[2].rowpush(s[0])).m(r=>r.flatten())
var d=	[
		["type","coordinates","count"],
		["line",lines1,lines1.length],

Cardioid Examples

Following the "the midpoints of the circles lie on the perimeter of the fixed generator circle" method to draw a cardioid:

1) Choose a circle c and a point p on its perimeter, 2) Draw circles containing point p with centers on the perimeter of circle c

Example 1

numpoints=50;
pts=MAKEPOLYGONPOINTS(numpoints,[50,50],[200,200], 270)
start=pts[0];
circlesat=
	pts
		.map(
			p=>[p[0],p[1],SQRT(POWER(p[0]-start[0],2)+POWER(p[1]-start[1],2))]
		)

RENDER(
	[
		["type","cx","cy","r","stroke","stroke-width","count"],
		["circle",circlesat.column(0),circlesat.column(1),circlesat.column(2),"red",1,circlesat.length]
