Three examples of the triangle inequality for triangles with sides of lengths x, y, z.The top example shows a case where z is much less than the sum x + y of the other two sides, and the bottom example shows a case where the side z is only slightly less than x + y.
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);
Solution of triangles (Latin: solutio triangulorum) is the main trigonometric problem of finding the characteristics of a triangle (angles and lengths of sides), when some of these are known. The triangle can be located on a plane or on a sphere. Applications requiring triangle solutions include geodesy, astronomy, construction, and navigation.
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 ...
The minimum-weight perfect matching can have no larger weight, so w(M) ≤ w(C)/2. Adding the weights of T and M gives the weight of the Euler tour, at most 3w(C)/2. Thanks to the triangle inequality, even though the Euler tour might revisit vertices, shortcutting does not increase the weight, so the weight of the output is also at most 3w(C)/2 ...
For instance, to solve the inequality 4x < 2x + 1 ≤ 3x + 2, it is not possible to isolate x in any one part of the inequality through addition or subtraction. Instead, the inequalities must be solved independently, yielding x < 1 / 2 and x ≥ −1 respectively, which can be combined into the final solution −1 ≤ x < 1 / 2 .
Food inflation soared to a peak of more than 10% in 2022, but price increases have slowed to about 2%, U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data shows. Typically, prices do not fall across the board ...
The reverse inequality follows from the same argument as the standard Minkowski, but uses that Holder's inequality is also reversed in this range. Using the Reverse Minkowski, we may prove that power means with p ≤ 1 , {\textstyle p\leq 1,} such as the harmonic mean and the geometric mean are concave.
