about dsargues' theorem

Unread post by Tahmid Hasan » Tue May 31, 2011 11:55 am

we know that 2 simlar triangles are perspective from a point,we get the point by joining the corresponding points,but consider 2 similar triangles $\triangle ABC,\triangle ADE$,which mans they have a common vertex(they are similar in the given orientation),so how do i get the line corresponding from $A$ without locating the point of perspectivity.

The point of perspectivity is defined by the lines joining $B,D$ and $C,E$ then , as the line $AA$ has no meaning.

there are special cases of Pascal's theorem where 2 coinciding points of a hexagon are considered as tangents.can this be also done here?

But here, you will draw tangents... to what?
