In geometry, the incircle or inscribed circle of a triangle is the largest circle that can be contained in the triangle; it touches (is tangent to) the three sides. The center of the incircle is a triangle center called the triangle's incenter.
Used paired with ±, denotes the opposite sign; that is, + if ± is –, and – if ± is +. ÷ (division sign) Widely used for denoting division in Anglophone countries, it is no longer in common use in mathematics and its use is "not recommended". [1] In some countries, it can indicate subtraction.: 1.
In mathematics, two points of a sphere (or n-sphere, including a circle) are called antipodal or diametrically opposite if they are the endpoints of a diameter, a straight line segment between two points on a sphere and passing through its center.
In mathematics, the inverse trigonometric functions (occasionally also called antitrigonometric, [1] cyclometric, [2] or arcus functions [3]) are the inverse functions of the trigonometric functions, under suitably restricted domains.
Differential equations are an important area of mathematical analysis with many applications in science and engineering. Analysis is the branch of mathematics dealing with continuous functions , limits , and related theories, such as differentiation , integration , measure , infinite sequences , series , and analytic functions .
The area K of an orthodiagonal quadrilateral equals one half the product of the lengths of the diagonals p and q: [8] K = p q 2 . {\displaystyle K={\frac {pq}{2}}.} Conversely, any convex quadrilateral where the area can be calculated with this formula must be orthodiagonal. [ 6 ]
Each curve in this example is a locus defined as the conchoid of the point P and the line l.In this example, P is 8 cm from l. In geometry, a locus (plural: loci) (Latin word for "place", "location") is a set of all points (commonly, a line, a line segment, a curve or a surface), whose location satisfies or is determined by one or more specified conditions.
In mathematical analysis, a domain or region is a non-empty, connected, and open set in a topological space.In particular, it is any non-empty connected open subset of the real coordinate space R n or the complex coordinate space C n.
