  2. Method of exhaustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_exhaustion

    Proposition 2: The area of circles is proportional to the square of their diameters. [3] Proposition 5: The volumes of two tetrahedra of the same height are proportional to the areas of their triangular bases. [4] Proposition 10: The volume of a cone is a third of the volume of the corresponding cylinder which has the same base and height. [5]

  3. Cartesian coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_coordinate_system

    The quadrants may be named or numbered in various ways, but the quadrant where all coordinates are positive is usually called the first quadrant. If the coordinates of a point are (x, y), then its distances from the X-axis and from the Y-axis are | y | and | x |, respectively; where | · | denotes the absolute value of a number.

  4. Signed area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signed_area

    The blue area above the x-axis may be specified as positive area, while the yellow area below the x-axis is the negative area. The integral of a real function can be imagined as the signed area between the x {\displaystyle x} -axis and the curve y = f ( x ) {\displaystyle y=f(x)} over an interval [ a , b ].

  5. Cubic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_function

    The graph of any cubic function is similar to such a curve. The graph of a cubic function is a cubic curve, though many cubic curves are not graphs of functions. Although cubic functions depend on four parameters, their graph can have only very few shapes. In fact, the graph of a cubic function is always similar to the graph of a function of ...

  6. Superellipse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superellipse

    When n is a positive rational number / (in lowest terms), then each quadrant of the superellipse is a plane algebraic curve of order /. [5] In particular, when a = b = 1 {\displaystyle a=b=1} and n is an even integer, then it is a Fermat curve of degree n .

  7. Quadrant (plane geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrant_(plane_geometry)

    The expression reads "All Science Teachers Crazy" and proceeding counterclockwise from the upper right quadrant, we see that "All" functions are positive in quadrant I, "Science" (for sine) is positive in quadrant II, "Teachers" (for tangent) is positive in quadrant III, and "Crazy" (for cosine) is positive in quadrant IV.

  8. Quadtree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadtree

    Point quadtrees are constructed as follows. Given the next point to insert, we find the cell in which it lies and add it to the tree. The new point is added such that the cell that contains it is divided into quadrants by the vertical and horizontal lines that run through the point. Consequently, cells are rectangular but not necessarily square.

  9. Incidence geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incidence_geometry

    The collinearity graph of a near 2-gon is a complete graph. A near 4-gon is a generalized quadrangle (possibly degenerate). Every finite generalized polygon except the projective planes is a near polygon. Any connected bipartite graph is a near polygon and any near polygon with precisely two points per line is a connected bipartite graph.
