The following two propositions are necessary for what is to follow, and are very easy to prove.
I. If A, B, C be three points such that B and C are conjugate with respect to the Polar Conic of A, then are C and A conjugate points with respect to the Polar Conic of B, and similarly with regard to the third vertex.
A triangle possessing the property defined above, viz. that each pair of vertices are conjugate points with respect to the Polar Conic of the third vertex, is called an Apolar Triangle.
