Normalized projected area of the planet as a function of its anomaly (φ) for inclinations of the orbit going from i = 90° (lowest curve) to i = 65° (highest curve) by steps of 5° for a WASP-12 b analog on a circular orbit. Top: for the full orbit. Bottom: zoom on the (primary or secondary) transit. The ordinates of the dotted, solid and dashed horizontal lines are respectively (face-on orbit), and .
