In [5, p. 105] attention has been called to a set of propositions, due to H. Cox [3, p. 67], which are related to another set, due to Clifford [2, p. 145; 4, p. 447], concerning points and circles in the plane or on the sphere. One may state Cox's chain of theorems as follows:In a projective 3-space, S3, let (1), (2), (3), (4) be four points lying in a plane α such that no three of them are collinear. Every two determine a line; let one plane such as [12], pass through each line. There are six such planes. The planes [12], [23], [13] determine a point (123); there are four such points. The first theorem of the chain states that they all lie in one plane [1234], It is not difficult to see that this is, in fact, a rewording of Möbius's theorem on mutually inscribed pairs of tetrahedra [4, p. 444].
