  2. Quadrant (plane geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrant_(plane_geometry)

    Signs of trigonometric functions in each quadrant. In the above graphic, the words in quotation marks are a mnemonic for remembering which three trigonometric functions (sine, cosine and tangent) are positive in each quadrant. The expression reads "All Science Teachers Crazy" and proceeding counterclockwise from the upper right quadrant, we see ...

  3. Quadrant count ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrant_Count_Ratio

    To calculate the QCR, the data are divided into quadrants based on the mean of the and variables. The formula for calculating the QCR is then: = + () (), where is the number of observations in that quadrant and is the total number of observations.

  4. Cartesian coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_coordinate_system

    When the axes are drawn according to the mathematical custom, the numbering goes counter-clockwise starting from the upper right ("north-east") quadrant. Similarly, a three-dimensional Cartesian system defines a division of space into eight regions or octants, [8] according to the signs of the coordinates of the points.

  5. Quadrant (instrument) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrant_(instrument)

    A large frame quadrant at the Beijing Ancient Observatory.It was constructed in 1673. A quadrant is an instrument used to measure angles up to 90°.Different versions of this instrument could be used to calculate various readings, such as longitude, latitude, and time of day.

  6. Mnemonics in trigonometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mnemonics_in_trigonometry

    Signs of trigonometric functions in each quadrant. All Students Take Calculus is a mnemonic for the sign of each trigonometric functions in each quadrant of the plane. The letters ASTC signify which of the trigonometric functions are positive, starting in the top right 1st quadrant and moving counterclockwise through quadrants 2 to 4.

  7. Strike and dip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strike_and_dip

    The general alphabetical dip direction (N, SE, etc) can be added to reduce ambiguity. For a feature with a dip of 45° and a dip direction of 75°, the strike and dip can be written as 345/45 NE, 165/45 NE, or 075,45. The compass quadrant direction for the strike can also be used in place of the azimuth, written as S15E or N15W. [1] [3]

  8. Polar coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_coordinate_system

    A quadratrix in the first quadrant (x, y) is a curve with y = ρ sin θ equal to the fraction of the quarter circle with radius r determined by the radius through the curve point. Since this fraction is 2 r θ π {\displaystyle {\frac {2r\theta }{\pi }}} , the curve is given by ρ ( θ ) = 2 r θ π sin ⁡ θ {\displaystyle \rho (\theta ...

  9. List of centroids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_centroids

    The following is a list of centroids of various two-dimensional and three-dimensional objects. The centroid of an object in -dimensional space is the intersection of all hyperplanes that divide into two parts of equal moment about the hyperplane.
