has gloss | eng: In geometry, just as two (distinct) points determine a line (a degree-1 plane curve), five points determine a conic (a degree-2 plane curve). There are additional subtleties for conics that do not exist for lines, and thus the statement and its proof for conics are both more technical than for lines. |
lexicalization | eng: five points determine a conic |
instance of | (noun) (geometry) a curve generated by the intersection of a plane and a circular cone conic, conic section |
