  2. Equivalent potential temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_potential...

    Equivalent potential temperature, commonly referred to as theta-e (), is a quantity that is conserved during changes to an air parcel's pressure (that is, during vertical motions in the atmosphere), even if water vapor condenses during that pressure change.

  3. Thomae's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomae's_formula

    This formula applies to any algebraic equation of any degree without need for a Tschirnhaus transformation or any other manipulation to bring the equation into a specific normal form, such as the Bring–Jerrard form for the quintic. However, application of this formula in practice is difficult because the relevant hyperelliptic integrals and ...

  4. Rotation matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_matrix

    If x and y are the endpoint coordinates of a vector, where x is cosine and y is sine, then the above equations become the trigonometric summation angle formulae. Indeed, a rotation matrix can be seen as the trigonometric summation angle formulae in matrix form.

  6. Spherical coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_coordinate_system

    For example, one sphere that is described in Cartesian coordinates with the equation x 2 + y 2 + z 2 = c 2 can be described in spherical coordinates by the simple equation r = c. (In this system— shown here in the mathematics convention —the sphere is adapted as a unit sphere , where the radius is set to unity and then can generally be ...

  7. Proofs of trigonometric identities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proofs_of_trigonometric...

    The sign of the square root needs to be chosen properly—note that if 2 π is added to θ, the quantities inside the square roots are unchanged, but the left-hand-sides of the equations change sign. Therefore, the correct sign to use depends on the value of θ. For the tan function, the equation is:

  8. Pythagorean trigonometric identity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagorean_trigonometric...

    The unit circle centered at the origin in the Euclidean plane is defined by the equation: [2] x 2 + y 2 = 1. {\displaystyle x^{2}+y^{2}=1.} Given an angle θ , there is a unique point P on the unit circle at an anticlockwise angle of θ from the x -axis, and the x - and y -coordinates of P are: [ 3 ]
