  2. atan2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atan2

    The function atan2 computes the principal value of the argument function applied to the complex number x + i y.That is, atan2(y, x) = Pr arg(x + i y) = Arg(x + i y).The argument could be changed by an arbitrary multiple of 2π (corresponding to a complete turn around the origin) without making any difference to the angle, but to define atan2 uniquely one uses the principal value in the range ...

    When they are tangent, they form a quadruple of tangent circles with the -axis and with the circle for their mediant (+) / (+). [ 35 ] The Ford circles belong to a special Apollonian gasket with root quadruple ( 0 , 0 , 1 , 1 ) {\displaystyle (0,0,1,1)} , bounded between two parallel lines, which may be taken as the x {\displaystyle x} -axis ...

  5. Square root of 3 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_root_of_3

    The square root of 3 is the positive real number that, when multiplied by itself, gives the number 3. It is denoted mathematically as or . It is more precisely called the principal square root of 3 to distinguish it from the negative number with the same property. The square root of 3 is an irrational number.

  6. Cylindrical coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylindrical_coordinate_system

    Cylindrical coordinate system. A cylindrical coordinate system with origin O, polar axis A, and longitudinal axis L. The dot is the point with radial distance ρ = 4, angular coordinate φ = 130°, and height z = 4. A cylindrical coordinate system is a three-dimensional coordinate system that specifies point positions by the distance from a ...

  7. Tetrahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahedron

    A negative value of the determinant means that a tetrahedron cannot be constructed with the given distances. This formula, sometimes called Tartaglia's formula, is essentially due to the painter Piero della Francesca in the 15th century, as a three-dimensional analogue of the 1st century Heron's formula for the area of a triangle.

  8. Mathematics of three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_three-phase...

    Mathematics of three-phase electric power. One voltage cycle of a three-phase system, labeled 0 to 360° (2π radians) along the time axis. The plotted line represents the variation of instantaneous voltage (or current) with respect to time. This cycle repeats with a frequency that depends on the power system.
