Each citation links to the sentence it supports in the citing article.

Domain-specific

• Cross Section (Geometry)
  • MathWorld states the standard solid-and-plane identity, while Coxeter's classical geometry treatment develops plane sections of solids as exact constructions rather than viewing conventions.
• Fixed points of isometry groups in Euclidean space
  • The entry records a descriptive analytical identity; practical use requires the governing domain's evidence, standards, and safety obligations.
• Rhombus
  • Each diagonal also bisects its pair of opposite vertex angles.

    This sourceSee the treatment of Euclidean transformations, quadrangles, and parallelograms.

• Shear mapping
  • A shear mapping fixes a hyperplane and translates every other point parallel to it by a displacement proportional to the point's signed transverse coordinate.

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's ISBN resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 4 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
