Detailed Description

In general, a cone is a pyramid with a circular cross section. A right cone is a cone with its vertex above the center of its base. However, when used without qualification, the term "cone" often means "right cone." We have implemented a "right cone". See geometric primitives for more information.

double IMP::algebra::Cone3D::get_angle

(

)

const

The opening angle of a cone is the vertex angle made by a cross section through the apex and center of the base.

Plane3D IMP::algebra::Cone3D::get_base_plane

(

)

const

The cone is on the positive side of the plane.

Vector3D IMP::algebra::Cone3D::get_direction

(

)

const

This vector points from the tip into the occupied volume.
