  2. Sextic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sextic_equation

    Watt's curve, which arose in the context of early work on the steam engine, is a sextic in two variables.. One method of solving the cubic equation involves transforming variables to obtain a sextic equation having terms only of degrees 6, 3, and 0, which can be solved as a quadratic equation in the cube of the variable.

    this second formula follows from applying L'Hôpital's rule to the first formula. Intuitively though, it is more about exhibiting the degree d as the extra constant factor in the derivative d x d − 1 {\displaystyle dx^{d-1}} of x d {\displaystyle x^{d}} .

  4. Septic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septic_equation

    Septic equations solvable by radicals have a Galois group which is either the cyclic group of order 7, or the dihedral group of order 14, or a metacyclic group of order 21 or 42. [ 1 ] The L (3, 2) Galois group (of order 168) is formed by the permutations of the 7 vertex labels which preserve the 7 "lines" in the Fano plane . [ 1 ]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonometry

    Trigonometry has been noted for its many identities, that is, equations that are true for all possible inputs. [83] Identities involving only angles are known as trigonometric identities. Other equations, known as triangle identities, [84] relate both the sides and angles of a given triangle.

    Signs of trigonometric functions in each quadrant. All Students Take Calculus is a mnemonic for the sign of each trigonometric functions in each quadrant of the plane. The letters ASTC signify which of the trigonometric functions are positive, starting in the top right 1st quadrant and moving counterclockwise through quadrants 2 to 4.
