The 12 pages that link to Affine combination, each with the reason it gives.
Affine spaceBroader topic: Affine combinations produce points without depending on a chosen origin.
Affine geometryRelated: It supports constructions such as midpoints and centroids without a metric.
MidpointRelated: Equal weights of one half produce the midpoint of two points.
ConvexityCompared with: Allowing negative weights distinguishes affine geometry from convexity.
Affine subspaceRelated: Affine combinations of points in the subspace remain within it.
