Hyperbolic geometry or hypercycle, then the triangle has no circumscribed circle. As in spherical and elliptical geometry, in hyperbolic geometry if two triangles are similar, they must be congruent. A special polygon in hyperbolic geometry is the regular apeirogon, a uniform polygon with an infinite number of sides. In Euclidean geometry, the only way to construct such a polygon is to make the side lengths tend to zero and the apeirogon is indistinguishable from a circle, or make the interior angles tend to 180 degrees and the apeirogon approaches a straight line. However, in hyperbolic geometry, a regular apeirogon has sides of
Circular symmetry potential of a central force. A vector field has spherical symmetry if it is in radially inward or outward direction with a magnitude and orientation (inward/outward) depending on the distance to the origin only, such as a central force. Circular symmetry In geometry, circular symmetry is a type of continuous symmetry for a planar object that can be rotated by any arbitrary angle and map onto itself. Rotational circular symmetry is isomorphic with the circle group in the complex plane, or the special orthogonal group SO(2), and unitary group U(1). Reflective circular symmetry is isomorphic with the orthogonal group O(2).
