The tonne (t) is an SI-compatible unit of mass equal to a megagram (Mg), or 10 3 kg. The unit is in common use for masses above about 10 3 kg and is often used with SI prefixes. For example, a gigagram ( Gg ) or 10 9 g is 10 3 tonnes, commonly called a kilotonne .
1795: the gram (1 / 1000 of a kilogram) was provisionally defined as the mass of one cubic centimetre of water at the melting point of ice. [12] 1799: The Kilogramme des Archives was manufactured as a prototype. It had a mass equal to the mass of 1 dm 3 of water at the temperature of its maximum density, which is approximately 4 °C. [13]
Ptolemy's theorem states that the sum of the products of the lengths of opposite sides is equal to the product of the lengths of the diagonals. When those side-lengths are expressed in terms of the sin and cos values shown in the figure above, this yields the angle sum trigonometric identity for sine: sin( α + β ) = sin α cos β + cos α sin ...
