Center (geometry)
In geometry, a centre (English in the Commonwealth of Nations, Commonwealth English) or center (American English) () of an shape, object is a point (geometry), point in some sense in the middle of the object. According to the specific definition of centre taken into consideration, an object might have no centre. If geometry is regarded as the study of isometry groups, then a centre is a fixed point of all the isometries that move the object onto itself. Circles, spheres, and segments The centre of a circle is the point equidistant from the points on the edge. Similarly the centre of a sphere is the point equidistant from the points on the surface, and the centre of a line segment is the midpoint of the two ends. Symmetric objects For objects with several symmetries, the centre of symmetry is the point left unchanged by the symmetric actions. So the centre of a square (geometry), square, rectangle, rhombus or parallelogram is where the diagonals intersect, this is (among other ...
