WHAT DOES CISSOID MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Cissoid

In geometry, a cissoid is a curve generated from two given curves C1, C2 and a point O. Let L be a variable line passing through O and intersecting C1 at P1 and C2 at P2. Let P be the point on L so that OP = P1P2. Then the locus of such points P is defined to be the cissoid of the curves C1, C2 relative to O. Slightly different but essentially equivalent definitions are used by different authors. For example, P may be defined to be the point so that OP = OP1 + OP2. This is equivalent to the other definition if C1 is replaced by its reflection through O. Or P may be defined as the midpoint of P1 and P2; this produces the curve generated by the previous curve scaled by a factor of 1/2. The word "cissoid" comes from the Greek kissoeidēs "ivy shaped" from kissos "ivy" and -oeidēs "having the likeness of".

Definition of cissoid in the English dictionary

The definition of cissoid in the dictionary is a geometric curve whose two branches meet in a cusp at the origin and are asymptotic to a line parallel to the y-axis. Its equation is y² =x³ where 2a is the distance between the y-axis and this line.
