$TV(a,b,c)$ is the affine / simple ratio (Teilverhältnis), i.e the signed value of $|ac|/|ab|$. If the three segments $aa'$, $bb'$, $cc'$ intersect in one common point then it follows $$ TV(a',c,b) \cdot TV(b',a,c) \cdot TV(c',b,a) = -1 $$ Depending on which affine ratios are taken this product may also be $1$.
