    where C is the circumference of a circle, d is the diameter, and r is the radius.More generally, = where L and w are, respectively, the perimeter and the width of any curve of constant width.

  3. Pi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi

    The number π (/ p aɪ /; spelled out as "pi") is a mathematical constant that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, approximately equal to 3.14159. The number π appears in many formulae across mathematics and physics .

    Trigonometric functions specify the relationships between side lengths and interior angles of a right triangle. For example, the sine of angle θ is defined as being the length of the opposite side divided by the length of the hypotenuse.

  5. List of mathematical constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_constants

    A mathematical constant is a key number whose value is fixed by an unambiguous definition, often referred to by a symbol (e.g., an alphabet letter), or by mathematicians' names to facilitate using it across multiple mathematical problems. [1]

    Conclusion: Since () > and ⁡ > for < < (because is the smallest positive zero of the sine function), Claims 1 and 2 show that () + is a positive integer. Since 0 ≤ x ( a − b x ) ≤ π a {\displaystyle 0\leq x(a-bx)\leq \pi a} and 0 ≤ sin ⁡ x ≤ 1 {\displaystyle 0\leq \sin x\leq 1} for 0 ≤ x ≤ π , {\displaystyle 0\leq x\leq \pi ...

    A formula for computing the trigonometric identities for the one-third angle exists, but it requires finding the zeroes of the cubic equation 4x 3 − 3x + d = 0, where is the value of the cosine function at the one-third angle and d is the known value of the cosine function at the full angle.

    Nepal received $4.1 billion in donations after back-to-back earthquakes in April killed more than 8,500 people. Earlier this year, the Confederate battle flag, long a symbol of racism to many in the American South, was removed from the South Carolina Capitol grounds after a white supremacist killed nine parishioners in a traditionally black ...

  9. Leibniz formula for π - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leibniz_formula_for_π

    In mathematics, the Leibniz formula for π, named after Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, states that = + + = = +,. an alternating series.. It is sometimes called the Madhava–Leibniz series as it was first discovered by the Indian mathematician Madhava of Sangamagrama or his followers in the 14th–15th century (see Madhava series), [1] and was later independently rediscovered by James Gregory in ...
