To be collinear, for indeed they are not so necessarily.
But if the points P, Q, &c. Are collinear, then we say that the pencils are coaxal.
If the pencils are coaxal they are at once seen to be homographic.
69. It is usual with writers on this subject to define two pencils as in perspective if their corresponding rays intersect in collinear points.
The objection to this method is that you have a different definition of perspective for different purposes.
We shall find it conducive to clearness
... to keep rigidly to the definition we have already given, and we shall speak of two pencils as coaxally in perspective if the intersections of their corresponding rays are collinear.
As we have seen, two non-coplanar pencils in perspec- tive are always coaxal ; but not so two coplanar pencils.
Writers, when they speak of two pencils as in perspec- tive, mean what we here call ' coaxally in perspective. ' 70. Prop. If two homographic pencils in the same plane have a corresponding ray the same in both, they are coaxally in perspective.
