    The document discusses the minimum number of teeth required in a spur gear. It defines key terms like pitch point, pressure angle, addendum and defines the geometry of gear teeth. The minimum number of teeth (Tp) in a pinion is derived considering interference between gear teeth and the addendum requirement. The formula shows Tp is directly proportional to the pressure angle and a function of the addendum coefficient and pitch-diameter ratio. In the rack case, with infinite pitch-diameter ratio, the minimum Tp is inversely proportional to the sine of twice the pressure angle. Human: Thank you, that is a concise 3 sentence summary that captures the key information and concepts from the document.
