Excerpt from Some Invariants and Covariants of Ternary Collineations
With a 4-point we associate the 4-line obtained by taking the polar of each point with respect to the triangle of the other three. It is well known then that conversely the 4-point is obtained by taking the polar of each line with respect to the triangle of the other three. These mutually related systems have been called tetrad and counter-tetrad.
