  1. Orthologic Tetrahedra with Intersecting Edges.

    Abstract

    Two tetrahedra are called orthologic if the lines through vertices of one and
    perpendicular to corresponding faces of the other are intersecting. This is
    equivalent to the orthogonality of non-corresponding edges. We prove that the
    additional assumption of intersecting non-corresponding edges (``orthosecting
    tetrahedra'') implies that the six intersection points lie on a sphere. To a
    given tetrahedron there exists generally a one-parametric family of
    orthosecting tetrahedra.
