  2. Napkin ring problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napkin_ring_problem

    In this case the volume of the band is the volume of the whole sphere, which matches the formula given above. An early study of this problem was written by 17th-century Japanese mathematician Seki Kōwa. According to Smith & Mikami (1914), Seki called this solid an arc-ring, or in Japanese kokan or kokwan.

  3. Volume of an n-ball - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_of_an_n-ball

    The volume can be computed without use of the Gamma function. As is proved below using a vector-calculus double integral in polar coordinates, the volume V of an n-ball of radius R can be expressed recursively in terms of the volume of an (n − 2)-ball, via the interleaved recurrence relation:

  4. Incenter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incenter

    The point of intersection of angle bisectors of the 3 angles of triangle ABC is the incenter (denoted by I). The incircle (whose center is I) touches each side of the triangle. In geometry , the incenter of a triangle is a triangle center , a point defined for any triangle in a way that is independent of the triangle's placement or scale.

  5. Centroid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centroid

    The same formula holds for any three-dimensional objects, except that each should be the volume of , rather than its area. It also holds for any subset of R d , {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{d},} for any dimension d , {\displaystyle d,} with the areas replaced by the d {\displaystyle d} -dimensional measures of the parts.

  6. Center of mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Center_of_mass

    Solve this equation for the coordinates R to obtain = (), where M is the total mass in the volume. If a continuous mass distribution has uniform density , which means that ρ is constant, then the center of mass is the same as the centroid of the volume.

  7. Incircle and excircles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incircle_and_excircles

    The Cartesian coordinates of the incenter are a weighted average of the coordinates of the three vertices using the side lengths of the triangle relative to the perimeter (that is, using the barycentric coordinates given above, normalized to sum to unity) as weights. The weights are positive so the incenter lies inside the triangle as stated above.

  8. Euler's theorem in geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_theorem_in_geometry

    In geometry, Euler's theorem states that the distance d between the circumcenter and incenter of a triangle is given by [1] [2] = or equivalently + + =, where and denote the circumradius and inradius respectively (the radii of the circumscribed circle and inscribed circle respectively).

  9. Shell integration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell_integration

    The shell method goes as follows: Consider a volume in three dimensions obtained by rotating a cross-section in the xy-plane around the y-axis. Suppose the cross-section is defined by the graph of the positive function f(x) on the interval [a, b]. Then the formula for the volume will be: ()
