  2. Real image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_image

    Examples of real images include the image produced on a detector in the rear of a camera, and the image produced on an eyeball retina (the camera and eye focus light through an internal convex lens). In ray diagrams (such as the images on the right), real rays of light are always represented by full, solid lines; perceived or extrapolated rays ...

  3. Contour line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contour_line

    Line type refers to whether the basic contour line is solid, dashed, dotted or broken in some other pattern to create the desired effect. Dotted or dashed lines are often used when the underlying base map conveys very important (or difficult to read) information.

  4. Linear inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_inequality

    A simple procedure to determine which half-plane is in the solution set is to calculate the value of ax + by at a point (x 0, y 0) which is not on the line and observe whether or not the inequality is satisfied. For example, [3] to draw the solution set of x + 3y < 9, one first draws the line with equation x + 3y = 9 as a dotted line, to ...

  5. Asymptote - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymptote

    A cubic curve, the folium of Descartes (solid) with a single real asymptote (dashed) The asymptotes of an algebraic curve in the affine plane are the lines that are tangent to the projectivized curve through a point at infinity. [13] For example, one may identify the asymptotes to the unit hyperbola in this manner.

  6. Image (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    For example, for the function () =, the inverse image of {} would be {,}. Again, if there is no risk of confusion, f − 1 [ B ] {\displaystyle f^{-1}[B]} can be denoted by f − 1 ( B ) , {\displaystyle f^{-1}(B),} and f − 1 {\displaystyle f^{-1}} can also be thought of as a function from the power set of Y {\displaystyle Y} to the power set ...

  7. Surface-area-to-volume ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface-area-to-volume_ratio

    Their intercepts with the dashed lines show that when the volume increases 8 (2³) times, the surface area increases 4 (2²) times. The surface-area-to-volume ratio or surface-to-volume ratio (denoted as SA:V, SA/V, or sa/vol) is the ratio between surface area and volume of an object or collection of objects.

    The average American woman weighs about 170 pounds and stands about 5 feet, 4 inches tall. But it’s important to remember that these averages are mathematical calculations and don’t ...

  9. Curve fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curve_fitting

    Polynomial curves fitting points generated with a sine function. The black dotted line is the "true" data, the red line is a first degree polynomial, the green line is second degree, the orange line is third degree and the blue line is fourth degree. The first degree polynomial equation = + is a line with slope a. A line will connect any two ...
