Conchoid of Dürer

The Conchoid of Dürer is a mathematical curve that was first described by the German artist and mathematician Albrecht Dürer in the 16th century. The term "conchoid" typically refers to a class of curves defined by certain geometric properties and constructions. In particular, the Conchoid of Dürer can be constructed using a fixed point (a focus) and a distance, similar to how conic sections are defined.
