  2. Parallel axis theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_axis_theorem

    The parallel axis theorem, also known as Huygens–Steiner theorem, or just as Steiner's theorem, [1] named after Christiaan Huygens and Jakob Steiner, can be used to determine the moment of inertia or the second moment of area of a rigid body about any axis, given the body's moment of inertia about a parallel axis through the object's center of gravity and the perpendicular distance between ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_second_moments_of_area

    The parallel axis theorem can be used to determine the second moment of area of a rigid body about any axis, given the body's second moment of area about a parallel axis through the body's centroid, the area of the cross section, and the perpendicular distance (d) between the axes. ′ = +

  4. Parabola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabola

    Then the line is parallel to the axis of the parabola and has the equation = (+) / Proof: can be done (like the properties above) for the unit parabola y = x 2 {\displaystyle y=x^{2}} . Application: This property can be used to determine the direction of the axis of a parabola, if two points and their tangents are given.

  5. Matrix representation of conic sections - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_representation_of...

    By the principal axis theorem, the two eigenvectors of the matrix of the quadratic form of a central conic section (ellipse or hyperbola) are perpendicular (orthogonal to each other) and each is parallel to (in the same direction as) either the major or minor axis of the conic.

    If b = 0, the line is a vertical line (that is a line parallel to the y-axis) of equation =, which is not the graph of a function of x. Similarly, if a ≠ 0, the line is the graph of a function of y, and, if a = 0, one has a horizontal line of equation =.

  8. Rotation of axes in two dimensions - Wikipedia

    The equations defining the transformation in two dimensions, which rotates the xy axes counterclockwise through an angle into the x′y′ axes, are derived as follows. In the xy system, let the point P have polar coordinates ( r , α ) {\displaystyle (r,\alpha )} .
