is the number of collisions made (in ideal conditions, perfectly elastic with no friction) by an object of mass m initially at rest between a fixed wall and another object of mass b 2N m, when struck by the other object. [1] (This gives the digits of π in base b up to N digits past the radix point.)
For the above isosceles triangle with unit sides and angle , the area 1 / 2 × base × height is calculated in two orientations. When upright, the area is sin θ cos θ {\displaystyle \sin \theta \cos \theta } .
((x),(y) = {239, 13 2} is a solution to the Pell equation x 2 − 2 y 2 = −1.) Formulae of this kind are known as Machin-like formulae. Machin's particular formula was used well into the computer era for calculating record numbers of digits of π, [39] but more recently other similar formulae have been used as well.
The total curvature of a closed curve is always an integer multiple of 2 π, where N is called the index of the curve or turning number – it is the winding number of the unit tangent vector about the origin, or equivalently the degree of the map to the unit circle assigning to each point of the curve, the unit velocity vector at that point.
x is the argument of the complex number (angle between line to point and x-axis in polar form). The notation is less commonly used in mathematics than Euler's formula, e ix, which offers an even shorter notation for cos x + i sin x, but cis(x) is widely used as a name for this function in software libraries.
Let PQ be a line perpendicular to line OQ defined by angle , drawn from point Q on this line to point P. OQP is a right angle. Let QA be a perpendicular from point A on the x -axis to Q and PB be a perpendicular from point B on the x -axis to P. ∴ {\displaystyle \therefore } OAQ and OBP are right angles.
A trade group has asked the incoming Trump administration to consider a "comprehensive plan" for updating the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's regulatory framework for investment ...
Although the radix conversion from decimal floating-point to binary floating-point only incurs a small relative error, catastrophic cancellation may amplify it into a much larger one: double x = 1.000000000000001 ; // rounded to 1 + 5*2^{-52} double y = 1.000000000000002 ; // rounded to 1 + 9*2^{-52} double z = y - x ; // difference is exactly ...
