...a diameter, is called an ordinate to that diameter, as DFD. The conjugate to a diameter, is a right line drawn through the centre, and parallel to the...tangent of the curve at the vertex of the diameter, as HI in the ellipse. The segment of a circle, between its vertex and an ordinate, is called an absciss.... | |
