  2. Parabola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabola

    The area enclosed between a parabola and a chord (see diagram) is two-thirds of the area of a parallelogram that surrounds it. One side of the parallelogram is the chord, and the opposite side is a tangent to the parabola. [16] [17] The slope of the other parallel sides is irrelevant to the area. Often, as here, they are drawn parallel with the ...

  3. Method of exhaustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_exhaustion

    The area bounded by the intersection of a line and a parabola is 4/3 that of the triangle having the same base and height (the quadrature of the parabola); The area of an ellipse is proportional to a rectangle having sides equal to its major and minor axes;

  4. Area of a triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_of_a_triangle

    The area of a triangle can be demonstrated, for example by means of the congruence of triangles, as half of the area of a parallelogram that has the same base length and height. A graphic derivation of the formula T = h 2 b {\displaystyle T={\frac {h}{2}}b} that avoids the usual procedure of doubling the area of the triangle and then halving it.

    A triangle with sides a, b, and c. In geometry, Heron's formula (or Hero's formula) gives the area of a triangle in terms of the three side lengths ⁠, ⁠ ⁠, ⁠ ⁠. ⁠ Letting ⁠ ⁠ be the semiperimeter of the triangle, = (+ +), the area ⁠ ⁠ is [1]

  6. Quadrature of the Parabola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrature_of_the_Parabola

    A parabolic segment is the region bounded by a parabola and line. To find the area of a parabolic segment, Archimedes considers a certain inscribed triangle. The base of this triangle is the given chord of the parabola, and the third vertex is the point on the parabola such that the tangent to the parabola at that point is parallel to the chord.

  9. Circumconic and inconic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumconic_and_inconic

    A point in the interior of a triangle is the center of an inellipse of the triangle if and only if the point lies in the interior of the triangle whose vertices lie at the midpoints of the original triangle's sides. [3]: p.139 For a given point inside that medial triangle, the inellipse with its center at that point is unique. [3]: p.142
