  2. Problem of Apollonius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Problem_of_Apollonius

    When multiplied out, all three equations have x s 2 + y s 2 on the left-hand side, and r s 2 on the right-hand side. Subtracting one equation from another eliminates these quadratic terms; the remaining linear terms may be re-arranged to yield formulae for the coordinates x s and y s = + = +

  3. Identity element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identity_element

    Another common example is the cross product of vectors, where the absence of an identity element is related to the fact that the direction of any nonzero cross product is always orthogonal to any element multiplied. That is, it is not possible to obtain a non-zero vector in the same direction as the original.

    1. Denotes addition and is read as plus; for example, 3 + 2. 2. Denotes that a number is positive and is read as plus. Redundant, but sometimes used for emphasizing that a number is positive, specially when other numbers in the context are or may be negative; for example, +2. 3.

  5. Zero divisor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_divisor

    Left or right zero divisors can never be units, because if a is invertible and ax = 0 for some nonzero x, then 0 = a −1 0 = a −1 ax = x, a contradiction. An element is cancellable on the side on which it is regular. That is, if a is a left regular, ax = ay implies that x = y, and similarly for right regular.

  6. Sign (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sign_(mathematics)

    The plus and minus symbols are used to show the sign of a number. In mathematics, the sign of a real number is its property of being either positive, negative, or 0.Depending on local conventions, zero may be considered as having its own unique sign, having no sign, or having both positive and negative sign.

  7. Sides of an equation - Wikipedia

    Similarly, RHS is the right-hand side. The two sides have the same value, expressed differently, since equality is symmetric. [1] More generally, these terms may apply to an inequation or inequality; the right-hand side is everything on the right side of a test operator in an expression, with LHS defined similarly.

  9. House numbering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_numbering

    The system is similar to the French-Spanish one: when a house is divided the term 'bis' is added with the difference that no single term designates the third: when a house is divided or added between another the term 'bis' is repeated as many divisions have been made or houses added in between, for example '3217 bis bis' corresponds to the ...
