From: Christian Hackl on 12 Aug 2010 10:37 Hello! I wondered what was the correct word to use for the case when a geometrical element intersects *or* completely encloses another element. For example, let's say you have a rectangle and two line segments in 2D like this: +----------+ | | | ---- | | | | +--|-------+ | | Now what's the generic mathematical term for the relationship between the rectangle and both line segments (the horizontal one not intersecting the rectangle but being enclosed by it)? -- Christian Hackl hacki(a)sbox.tugraz.at Milano 2008/2009 -- L'Italia chiam�, s�! |
