1 Pappus Theorem for a Conic and Mystic Hexagons Ross Moore Macquarie University Sydney, Australia
2 Pappus Theorem for a Conic and Mystic Hexagons Ross Moore Macquarie University Sydney, Australia Pappus Theorem is a well-known result for triples of points on two lines in the (projective) plane:
3 Theorem. (Pappus) 2
4 2 Theorem. (Pappus) Given lines l and m in the plane, l m
5 2 Theorem. (Pappus) Given lines l and m in the plane, three distinct points A,, C on l (but not on m), l A C m
6 2 Theorem. (Pappus) Given lines l and m in the plane, three distinct points A,, C on l (but not on m), and three distinct points D, E, F on m (but not on l), l A C m D E F
7 2 Theorem. (Pappus) Given lines l and m in the plane, three distinct points A,, C on l (but not on m), and three distinct points D, E, F on m (but not on l), construct the intersections L = F CE, l A C m D E F L
8 2 Theorem. (Pappus) Given lines l and m in the plane, three distinct points A,, C on l (but not on m), and three distinct points D, E, F on m (but not on l), construct the intersections L = F CE, M = CD AF l A C m D E F M L
9 2 Theorem. (Pappus) Given lines l and m in the plane, three distinct points A,, C on l (but not on m), and three distinct points D, E, F on m (but not on l), construct the intersections L = F CE, M = CD AF and N = AE D. l A C m D E F N M L
10 2 Theorem. (Pappus) Given lines l and m in the plane, three distinct points A,, C on l (but not on m), and three distinct points D, E, F on m (but not on l), construct the intersections L = F CE, M = CD AF and N = AE D. Then L, M, N are collinear. l A C m D E F N M L
11 3 Definition. y a Pappus configuration we mean a set of 6 points in the plane, arranged as a pair of triples of points (not necessarily collinear) (A,, C) and (D, E, F ), such that the intersections (L, M, N), of pairs of lines joining points taken as in Pappus Theorem, are collinear.

Not so well-known is that if the six points A,, C, D, E, F lie on a non-singular conic, then (A,, C), (D, E, F ) form a Pappus configuration.

14 4 Remark. The usual Pappus Theorem is just the situation whereby the conic degenerates into a pair of lines.
15 4 Remark. The usual Pappus Theorem is just the situation whereby the conic degenerates into a pair of lines. Remark. When the six points are ordered as A, F,, D, C, F the resulting polygon is just Pascal s mystic hexagon. Alternatively, given a mystic hexagon, the Pappus configuration is obtained by taking the even and odd vertices for the groups of three.

Alternatively, given a mystic hexagon, the Pappus configuration is obtained by taking the even and odd vertices for the groups of three. Remark. It is well known that a unique conic can be drawn through any 5 points in general position. Pappus configurations give a way to construct that conic, parametrised by the points on a line...
