IOR I00 OP, OP OPi OP OPj 00 OPi ? The characteristic constant a is the recipro,cal of the segmentOP; where Pj is the point that is transformed to infinity. Alongany other line through O as OS making an angle 6 with 1 wehave os;4=^olr---^- Let A any point on 1 be the vertex of an invariant pencil of raysand let AO^^d. The elation S transforms AP into AP, and AP,into AK perpendicular to 1. Let the angle PAO=:<^, P^AO^^^,PjAO=<^i, etc. Along OP we have I I I OP ~ I cot^i I COt<^ I OP, ^ d OP d .
