"Porism" Meaning
A porism is a statement or a theorem in mathematics that can be proven by considering a counterexample if it is false.
A porism is similar to an auxiliary proposition, but it is specifically used in geometry to characterize certain properties and theorems that occur when the conditions of a theorem are not met, or indeed are not satisfied, at all.
For example, in Euclid's Book I, Theorem II, the Pythagorean Theorem can be used as an auxiliary proposition for proving that something is a porism.
