Perspective (graphical) and vice versa. The more off-center the vanishing point, the more tilted the square will be. Because the square is made up of right angles, the vanishing point should be directly in the middle of the horizon line. A rotated square is drawn using two-point perspective, with each set of parallel lines leading to a different vanishing point. The foremost edge of the ("orange") square is drawn near the bottom of the painting. Because the viewer's picture plane is parallel to the bottom of the square, this line is horizontal. Lines connecting each side of the foremost edge to the
Tricritical point more components. It can be shown that three is the "minimum" number of components for which these points can appear. In this case, one may have a two-dimensional region of three-phase coexistence ("F" = 2-3+3 =2) (thus, each point in this region corresponds to a triple point). This region (F=2, P=3) will terminate in two critical lines of two-phase coexistence; these two critical lines (F=1, P=2) may then terminate at a single tricritical point. This point (F=0, P=1) is therefore "twice critical", since it belongs to two critical branches.<br> Indeed, its critical behavior is different from that of a conventional
