Gallery: Elliptic Conchoid

A conchoid in elliptic geometry. While the red point travels along an equator the spherical distance of the red and the green point remains fixed.

If you enable Java you can move the points in the construction above.

This is an automatic animation created with Cinderella. You cannot move points yourself.
