  2. Euclidean distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_distance

    The Euclidean distance is the prototypical example of the distance in a metric space, [10] and obeys all the defining properties of a metric space: [11] It is symmetric, meaning that for all points and , (,) = (,). That is (unlike road distance with one-way streets) the distance between two points does not depend on which of the two points is ...

  3. Manchu bow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manchu_bow

    It is characterized by very large siyahs, long draw length, prominent string bridges, and use with typically large and heavy arrows. [2] Compared to bows used by other cultures, which fired lighter arrows over longer distances, the Manchu bow was useful for shorter distances and capable of penetrating armor.

    At full draw the distance in inches from nock point on bow string to deepest grip spot (pivot-point) plus 1 + 3 ⁄ 4 inches (44 mm) (ATA standard). Bow: characteristic measure of the bow together with its draw weight. The technically given optimal draw length for full draw of that bow (ATA standard). Draw weight of a bow means weight at its ...

  5. Bow draw - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bow_draw

    A bow draw in archery is the method or technique of pulling back the bowstring [1] to store energy for the bow to shoot an arrow. The most common method [citation needed] in modern target archery is the Mediterranean draw, which has long been the usual method in European archery. Other methods include the pinch draw and the Mongolian or "thumb ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chord_(geometry)

    The chord function is defined geometrically as shown in the picture. The chord of an angle is the length of the chord between two points on a unit circle separated by that central angle. The angle θ is taken in the positive sense and must lie in the interval 0 < θ ≤ π (radian measure).

  9. Mean line segment length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_line_segment_length

    Monte Carlo method to approximate the mean line segment length of a unit square. Since computing the mean line segment length involves calculating multidimensional integrals, various methods for numerical integration can be used to approximate this value for any shape. One such method is the Monte Carlo method. To approximate the mean line ...
