In two dimensional geometry, two lines can be drawn from a point to a conic ie circle,parabola,ellipse or hyperbola. In space an infinite number of tangents can be drawn from a point to a conicaid, in particular a sphere. All these tangent lines generates a cone with the point as vertex. This cone is...

An envelope of a family of curves in the plane is a curve that is tangent to each member of the family at some point. Classically, a point on the envelope can be thought of as the intersection of two "adjacent" curves, meaning the limit of intersections of nearby curves.
