  2. Help:Displaying a formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Displaying_a_formula

    Spaces within a formula must be directly managed (for example by including explicit hair or thin spaces). Variable names must be italicized explicitly, and superscripts and subscripts must use an explicit tag or template. Except for short formulas, the source of a formula typically has more markup overhead and can be difficult to read.

  3. Quadratic formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_formula

    The quadratic formula is exactly correct when performed using the idealized arithmetic of real numbers, but when approximate arithmetic is used instead, for example pen-and-paper arithmetic carried out to a fixed number of decimal places or the floating-point binary arithmetic available on computers, the limitations of the number representation ...

    Instead, formulas may be placed on their own line using < math display = block >. For instance, the formula above was typeset using <math display=block> \int _ 0 ^ \pi \sin x \, dx.</math>. If you find an article which indents lines with spaces in order to achieve some formula layout effect, you should convert the formula to LaTeX markup.

    In mathematical logic, it remains used for denoting implication, but its exact meaning depends on the specific theory that is studied. 4. Over a variable name, means that the variable represents a vector, in a context where ordinary variables represent scalars; for example, .

  6. Euler's identity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_identity

    Euler's formula for a general angle. Euler's identity is a special case of Euler's formula, which states that for any real number x, = ⁡ + ⁡ where the inputs of the trigonometric functions sine and cosine are given in radians. In particular, when x = π,

  7. Quartic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartic_equation

    This formula handles repeated roots without problem. Ferrari was the first to discover one of these labyrinthine solutions [citation needed]. The equation which he solved was + + = which was already in depressed form. It has a pair of solutions which can be found with the set of formulas shown above.

  8. Formula for primes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formula_for_primes

    Because the set of primes is a computably enumerable set, by Matiyasevich's theorem, it can be obtained from a system of Diophantine equations. Jones et al. (1976) found an explicit set of 14 Diophantine equations in 26 variables, such that a given number k + 2 is prime if and only if that system has a solution in nonnegative integers: [7]

  9. Equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation

    The first use of an equals sign, equivalent to 14x + 15 = 71 in modern notation. From The Whetstone of Witte by Robert Recorde of Wales (1557). [1]In mathematics, an equation is a mathematical formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =.
