Viviani’s theorem demonstrates spatial conservation, showing that the three perpendicular lines behave like a zero-sum game: moving closer to one side requires corresponding movement away from the other two. Local changes maintain a global constant.

At any point on a curve, there's one circle that fits the curve better than any other. It touches the curve at that point, leans in the same direction, and bends by the same amount. It tells you how sharply the curve is bending at that exact spot, and which way it's leaning. If the curve is bending sharply, the circle is small. If the curve is nearly straight, the circle is huge. The osculating circle of the curve.
