  2. List of triangle inequalities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_triangle_inequalities

    The parameters most commonly appearing in triangle inequalities are: the side lengths a, b, and c;; the semiperimeter s = (a + b + c) / 2 (half the perimeter p);; the angle measures A, B, and C of the angles of the vertices opposite the respective sides a, b, and c (with the vertices denoted with the same symbols as their angle measures);

    Bennett's inequality, an upper bound on the probability that the sum of independent random variables deviates from its expected value by more than any specified amount; Bhatia–Davis inequality, an upper bound on the variance of any bounded probability distribution; Bernstein inequalities (probability theory) Boole's inequality; Borell–TIS ...

  4. Triangle inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle_inequality

    In terms of either area expression, the triangle inequality imposed on all sides is equivalent to the condition that the expression under the square root sign be real and greater than zero (so the area expression is real and greater than zero). The triangle inequality provides two more interesting constraints for triangles whose sides are a, b ...

  5. Unequal leg length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unequal_leg_length

    The other, more common, type called a functional leg difference, and is seen when the legs themselves are the same length, but due to neuromuscular injuries in the pelvis or upper leg, one leg or hip is held higher and tighter than the other (hypertonicity in the musculature of the pelvis or leg). These unequally tightened muscles cause the ...

  6. Maclaurin's inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maclaurin's_inequality

    Maclaurin's inequality is the following chain of inequalities: with equality if and only if all the are equal. For n = 2 {\displaystyle n=2} , this gives the usual inequality of arithmetic and geometric means of two non-negative numbers.

  7. Linear inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_inequality

    A linear inequality contains one of the symbols of inequality: [1] < less than > greater than; ≤ less than or equal to; ≥ greater than or equal to; ≠ not equal to; A linear inequality looks exactly like a linear equation, with the inequality sign replacing the equality sign.

  8. Ptolemy's inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ptolemy's_inequality

    For four points in order around a circle, Ptolemy's inequality becomes an equality, known as Ptolemy's theorem: ¯ ¯ + ¯ ¯ = ¯ ¯. In the inversion-based proof of Ptolemy's inequality, transforming four co-circular points by an inversion centered at one of them causes the other three to become collinear, so the triangle equality for these three points (from which Ptolemy's inequality may ...

  9. Leggett–Garg inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leggett–Garg_inequality

    The Leggett–Garg inequality, [1] named for Anthony James Leggett and Anupam Garg, is a mathematical inequality fulfilled by all macrorealistic physical theories.Here, macrorealism (macroscopic realism) is a classical worldview defined by the conjunction of two postulates, of which the second has actually nothing to do with “macro-realism”: [1]
