  2. Ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratio

    The verbal equivalent is "40 is to 60 as 2 is to 3." A ratio that has integers for both quantities and that cannot be reduced any further (using integers) is said to be in simplest form or lowest terms. Sometimes it is useful to write a ratio in the form 1:x or x:1, where x is not necessarily an integer, to enable comparisons of different ...

  3. Irreducible fraction - Wikipedia

    In the second step, they were divided by 3. The final result, ⁠ 4 / 3 ⁠, is an irreducible fraction because 4 and 3 have no common factors other than 1. The original fraction could have also been reduced in a single step by using the greatest common divisor of 90 and 120, which is 30. As 120 ÷ 30 = 4, and 90 ÷ 30 = 3, one gets

  4. List of common display resolutions - Wikipedia

    The difference is that whilst D1 has a 4:3 aspect ratio 960H has a 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio. The extra pixels are used to form the increased area to the sides of the D1 image. The pixel density of 960H is identical to standard D1 resolution so it does not give any improvement in image quality, merely a wider aspect ratio.

  5. Special right triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_right_triangle

    For example, a right triangle may have angles that form simple relationships, such as 45°–45°–90°. This is called an "angle-based" right triangle. A "side-based" right triangle is one in which the lengths of the sides form ratios of whole numbers, such as 3 : 4 : 5, or of other special numbers such as the golden ratio.

  6. Aspect ratio (image) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspect_ratio_(image)

    Japan's Hi-Vision originally started with a 5:3 (= 15:9) ratio but converted when the international standards group introduced a wider ratio of 5 + 1 ⁄ 3 to 3 (= 16:9). Many digital video cameras have the capability to record in 16:9 (= 4 2 :3 2 ), and 16:9 is the only widescreen aspect ratio natively supported by the DVD standard.

  7. Display aspect ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_aspect_ratio

    This aspect ratio was chosen as the geometric mean between 4:3 and 2.35:1, an average of the various aspect ratios used in film. [3] While 16:9 is well-suited for modern HDTV broadcasts , older 4:3 video has to be either padded with bars on the left and right side (pillarboxed), cropped or stretched, while movies shot with wider aspect ratios ...

  8. Aspect ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspect_ratio

    For example, the aspect ratio of a rectangle is the ratio of its longer side to its shorter side—the ratio of width to height, [1] [2] when the rectangle is oriented as a "landscape". The aspect ratio is most often expressed as two integer numbers separated by a colon (x:y), less commonly as a simple or decimal fraction. The values x and y do ...

  9. Superparticular ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superparticular_ratio

    In this application, Størmer's theorem can be used to list all possible superparticular numbers for a given limit; that is, all ratios of this type in which both the numerator and denominator are smooth numbers. [2] These ratios are also important in visual harmony. Aspect ratios of 4:3 and 3:2 are common in digital photography, [8] and aspect ...
