The differences between these types of lines can also be looked at in the following way : the distance between asymptotic lines shrinks toward zero in one direction and grows without bound in the other ; the distance between ultraparallel lines ( eventually ) increases in both directions .


The parallel postulate in Euclidean geometry says that in two dimensional space , for any given line l and point P not on l , there is exactly one line through P that does not intersect l. This line is called parallel to l. In hyperbolic geometry there are at least two such lines through P. As they do not intersect l , the parallel postulate is false .

The parallel postulate in Euclidean geometry is equivalent to the statement that , in two dimensional space , for any given line l and point P not on l , there is exactly one line through P that does not intersect l ; i.e. , that is parallel to l. In hyperbolic geometry there are at least two distinct lines through P which do not intersect l , so the parallel postulate is false .

Defibrillation works by delivering a controlled electric current to the heart , which depolarises a critical mass of the heart muscle , which stops the arrhythmia and allows a coordinated heart rhythm to return .

Defibrillation consists of delivering a therapeutic dose of electrical energy to the affected heart with a device called a defibrillator . This depolarizes a critical mass of the heart muscle , terminates the arrhythmia , and allows normal sinus rhythm to be reestablished by the body 's natural pacemaker , in the sinoatrial node of the heart .

During a Cassini flyby in late February 2007 , radar and camera observations revealed several large features in the north polar region that may be large expanses of liquid methane and\/or ethane , including one sea with an area of over 100,000 kmÂ ( larger than Lake Superior ) , and another ( though less definite ) region potentially the size of the Caspian Sea .
