If the means of the geometric proportion are equal, and the rightmost extreme is equal to the difference between the leftmost extreme and a mean, then such a proportion is called harmonic: [6]: =: (). In this case the ratio : is called golden ratio.
[1] [2] [3] Equal quotients correspond to equal ratios. A statement expressing the equality of two ratios is called a proportion. Consequently, a ratio may be considered as an ordered pair of numbers, a fraction with the first number in the numerator and the second in the denominator, or as the value denoted by this fraction.
All of the right-angled triangles are similar, i.e. the ratios between their corresponding sides are the same. For sin, cos and tan the unit-length radius forms the hypotenuse of the triangle that defines them. The reciprocal identities arise as ratios of sides in the triangles where this unit line is no longer the hypotenuse.
For example, a right triangle may have angles that form simple relationships, such as 45°–45°–90°. This is called an "angle-based" right triangle. A "side-based" right triangle is one in which the lengths of the sides form ratios of whole numbers, such as 3 : 4 : 5, or of other special numbers such as the golden ratio.
Japan's Nippon Steel is committed to its $15 billion acquisition of U.S. Steel and is confident of completing it by year-end, a senior executive said, despite strong U.S. opposition including from ...
It is possible to enjoy the holidays while maintaining a healthy lifestyle, says Dr. Nicole Saphier. The Fox News medical contributor shares her tips for navigating the season in a nutritious way.
Two functions and () are proportional if their ratio () is a constant function. If several pairs of variables share the same direct proportionality constant, the equation expressing the equality of these ratios is called a proportion , e.g., a / b = x / y = ⋯ = k (for details see Ratio ).
