👉 In the context of mathematics, "equipede" refers to a set of points in a plane that are equidistant from a given point. Specifically, it is a type of circle with no points on its circumference. An equipede can be thought of as a special kind of circle that has been modified by stretching or shrinking its radius so that it becomes an ellipse. The term "equipede" was introduced by the French mathematician Jean-Baptiste Joseph Léonard de Lagrange
