Geometry

Geometry is the branch of mathematics concerned with the properties and relations of points, lines, surfaces, solids, and higher dimensional analogues. Expected questions involve calculating lengths, angles, areas, and volumes of various shapes, understanding geometric theorems, and solving problems related to spatial reasoning.

• Question

  Let M be a set of points in the plane. O is called a partial center of symmetry if it is possible to remove a point from M such that O is a regular center of symmetry of what remains. How many partial centers of symmetry can a finite set of points in the plane have?
