∟Algebraic Introduction to Elliptic Curves

∟Algebraic Solution for Symmetrical Points

This section provides an algebraic solution for calculating the addition operation of two symmetrical points on an elliptic curve.

Case 1: P and Q are symmetrical points - This case is very easy. 

If P and Q are symmetrical points, we know that:
   yQ = - yP
   P + Q = P + (-P) = O (the infinity point or identity element)

So:
   R = O = (∞, ∞)
   xR = ∞
   yR = ∞
