  2. Grade (slope) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grade_(slope)

    Slope may still be expressed when the horizontal run is not known: the rise can be divided by the hypotenuse (the slope length). This is not the usual way to specify slope; this nonstandard expression follows the sine function rather than the tangent function, so it calls a 45 degree slope a 71 percent grade instead of a 100 percent. But in ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolab

    Symbolab is an answer engine [1] that provides step-by-step solutions to mathematical problems in a range of subjects. [2] It was originally developed by Israeli start-up company EqsQuest Ltd., under whom it was released for public use in 2011. In 2020, the company was acquired by American educational technology website Course Hero. [3] [4]

  4. Roof pitch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roof_pitch

    US convention is to use whole numbers when even (e.g. "three in twelve") or the nearest single or two-digit fraction when not (e.g. either "five and a half in twelve" or "five point five in twelve", each expressed numerically as 5 + 1 ⁄ 2:12 and 5.5:12) respectively. Definitions vary on when a roof is considered pitched.

  5. Slope - Wikipedia

    Slope illustrated for y = (3/2)x − 1.Click on to enlarge Slope of a line in coordinates system, from f(x) = −12x + 2 to f(x) = 12x + 2. The slope of a line in the plane containing the x and y axes is generally represented by the letter m, [5] and is defined as the change in the y coordinate divided by the corresponding change in the x coordinate, between two distinct points on the line.

    To find out the size of a step for a certain number of frequencies per decade, raise 10 to the power of the inverse of the number of steps: What is the step size for 30 steps per decade? 10 1 / 30 = 1.079775 {\displaystyle 10^{1/30}=1.079775} – or each step is 7.9775% larger than the last.

    Specifically, a straight line on a log–log plot containing points (x 0, F 0) and (x 1, F 1) will have the function: = ⁡ (/) ⁡ (/), Of course, the inverse is true too: any function of the form = will have a straight line as its log–log graph representation, where the slope of the line is m.

  8. Tobler's hiking function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tobler's_hiking_function

    S = slope, θ = angle of slope (inclination). The velocity on the flat terrain is 5 km / h, the maximum speed of 6 km / h is achieved roughly at -2.86°. [5] On flat terrain this formula works out to 5 km/h. For off-path travel, this value should be multiplied by 3/5, for horseback by 5/4. [1]

  9. Step function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Step_function

    The Heaviside step function is an often-used step function.. A constant function is a trivial example of a step function. Then there is only one interval, =. The sign function sgn(x), which is −1 for negative numbers and +1 for positive numbers, and is the simplest non-constant step function.
