two tangents to the circle, so that thepencils (O-ABCD...) and (O-ABCD . . .) are projective.From this follows that the ranges formed by the points of inter- 38 PROJECTIVE GEOMETRY. section of all tangents with two fixed tangents are equal.

It will be seenlater on that all curves of the second class are identical with allconies or curves of the second order. § 13. Polar Involution of the Circle.
