Then if the line… … Fig. 35. to a given line lies on the diametral plane which bisects allchords parallel to the line. This plane cuts the surface ina conic, and the locus of the tangents parallel to the givenline is therefore the cylinder generated by the parallels tothe given line which pass through the conic.…
