(This is the angle α opposite the "rise" side of a triangle with a right angle between vertical rise and horizontal run.) as a percentage , the formula for which is 100 × rise run {\displaystyle 100\times {\frac {\text{rise}}{\text{run}}}} which is equivalent to the tangent of the angle of inclination times 100.
This table shows the diagonal, horizontal, and vertical angles of view, in degrees, for lenses producing rectilinear images, when used with 36 mm × 24 mm format (that is, 135 film or full-frame 35 mm digital using width 36 mm, height 24 mm, and diagonal 43.3 mm for d in the formula above). [16]
In statistics, the number of degrees of freedom is the number of values in the final calculation of a statistic that are free to vary. [1]Estimates of statistical parameters can be based upon different amounts of information or data.
The Bailey–Borwein–Plouffe formula (BBP) for calculating π was discovered in 1995 by Simon Plouffe. Using base 16 math, the formula can compute any particular digit of π —returning the hexadecimal value of the digit—without having to compute the intervening digits (digit extraction). [94]
In mathematical finance, the Greeks are the quantities (known in calculus as partial derivatives; first-order or higher) representing the sensitivity of the price of a derivative instrument such as an option to changes in one or more underlying parameters on which the value of an instrument or portfolio of financial instruments is dependent.
