Description: The perspectivity is the projection from a point, usually of a line to another line. A quantity that is preserved by this map, called the cross-ratio, naturally appears in many geometrical configurations, which makes this map and its properties very useful in a variety of geometry problems. We study the pole of a line, polar of a point, cross ratio, perspectivity, and we prove theorems of Desargue, Pappus, Pascal, Brianchon and Brokar.
