Rushed behind Rushed behind In Australian rules football, a rushed behind occurs when the ball passes through the goalposts and was last touched by a defending player. A rushed behind scores one point against the defending team, but also prevents the attacking team from scoring a goal, worth six points. A rushed behind typically occurs when a defending player touches the ball after it has been kicked and as it heads toward the goal; by touching the ball, the defender ensures that the attacking team scores only one point, rather than the full six. It may be less risky for a defending
Five points determine a conic lines defined by opposite sides intersect in three collinear points. This can be reversed to construct the possible locations for a 6th point, given 5 existing ones. The natural generalization is to ask for what value of "k" a configuration of "k" points (in general position) in "n"-space determines a variety of degree "d" and dimension "m", which is a fundamental question in enumerative geometry. A simple case of this is for a hypersurface (a codimension 1 subvariety, the zeros of a single polynomial, the case formula_16), of which plane curves are an example. In the case of a hypersurface,
