The arrangement of terms corresponding to infinitebranches and multiple points is made easy by consideringthe property proved in Art. 145, i., that all parallel linescontainingcircles which indicate terms of an equation give,when such are equated to zero, the same relation betweenX and y as far as degree is concerned; so that, if there be,for example, a point of inflexion at the origin, the branchtouchingone of the axes, an equation giving such a formwould be y^ = Ax% where r and s are different odd numbers,and the same relation would be given for all parallel lines;the polygon must, therefore, have one of its lower sidesparallel to the line xlr-\-y/s = l. 218.
