The third formula shown is the result of solving for a in the quadratic equation a 2 − 2ab cos γ + b 2 − c 2 = 0. This equation can have 2, 1, or 0 positive solutions corresponding to the number of possible triangles given the data. It will have two positive solutions if b sin γ < c < b, only one positive solution if c = b sin γ, and no ...
The cosine of the angle between two non-zero vectors is given by (,) = ‖ ‖ ‖ ‖ using the dot product. Comparison of this expression to the definition of the absolute value of the polar sine as given above gives:
Just as the points (cos t, sin t) form a circle with a unit radius, the points (cosh t, sinh t) form the right half of the unit hyperbola. Also, similarly to how the derivatives of sin(t) and cos(t) are cos(t) and –sin(t) respectively, the derivatives of sinh(t) and cosh(t) are cosh(t) and +sinh(t) respectively.
In mathematics, a Madhava series is one of the three Taylor series expansions for the sine, cosine, and arctangent functions discovered in 14th or 15th century in Kerala, India by the mathematician and astronomer Madhava of Sangamagrama (c. 1350 – c. 1425) or his followers in the Kerala school of astronomy and mathematics.

where c θ = cos θ, s θ = sin θ, is a rotation by angle θ leaving axis u fixed. A direction in (n + 1)-dimensional space will be a unit magnitude vector, which we may consider a point on a generalized sphere, S n. Thus it is natural to describe the rotation group SO(n + 1) as combining SO(n) and S n. A suitable formalism is the fiber bundle,
[24] [25] [26] The coupling of a single quantum field mode with multiple (>) two-state subsystems (equivalent to spins higher than 1/2) is known as the Dicke model or the Tavis–Cummings model. For example, it applies to a high quality resonant cavity containing multiple identical atoms with transitions near the cavity resonance, or a ...
The first American-made pocket-sized calculator, the Bowmar 901B (popularly termed The Bowmar Brain), measuring 5.2 by 3.0 by 1.5 inches (132 mm × 76 mm × 38 mm), came out in the Autumn of 1971, with four functions and an eight-digit red LED display, for US$240, while in August 1972 the four-function Sinclair Executive became the first ...
