Abstract
This paper presents an explicit formula that converts a triangular Bézier patch of degree n to a degenerate rectangular Bézier patch of degree n×n by reparametrization. Based on this formula, we develop a method for approximating a degenerate rectangular Bézier patch by three nondegenerate Bézier patches; more patches can be introduced by subdivision to meet a user-specified error tolerance.
