Let a rigid body suffer a displacement to a new position, where it will be denoted by

Then any point A belonging to will take up a position A′ in . Let B be the point of F which coincides with A′. Then corresponding to B in there will be a point B′ in . Let this again coincide with C in , and so on. We have thus a sequence or chain of points whose relation may be thus indicated
