A Visual Dictionary of Special Plane Curves

This document provides a visual dictionary of special plane curves, grouping them into categories like conic sections, spirals, cycloidal curves, curves from the era of analytic geometry and calculus, and modern math curves. It lists specific curve types under each category, such as parabolas, hyperbolas, and ellipses under conic sections; archimedean and equiangular spirals under spirals; and bezier curves, catenaries, and sinusoids under modern math curves.
