Exercise 1.5. Show the two models for Fano's geometry are isomorphic.
points |
lines |
A, B, C, D, E, F, G |
ADB, AGE, AFC, BEC, BGF, CGD, FDE |
Set up a 1-1 correspondence between the points and lines by assigning A to 1, B to 3, C to 5, D to 2, E to 4, F to 6, and G to 7. (You should check that the lines also correspond.)
