  2. atan2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atan2

    The two figures below show 3D views of respectively atan2(y, x) and arctan(⁠ y / x ⁠) over a region of the plane. Note that for atan2(y, x), rays in the X/Y-plane emanating from the origin have constant values, but for arctan(⁠ y / x ⁠) lines in the X/Y-plane passing through the origin have constant

    Illustration of the sum formula. Draw a horizontal line (the x -axis); mark an origin O. Draw a line from O at an angle α {\displaystyle \alpha } above the horizontal line and a second line at an angle β {\displaystyle \beta } above that; the angle between the second line and the x -axis is α + β . {\displaystyle \alpha +\beta .}

  4. Complex number - Wikipedia

    The horizontal axis is generally used to display the real part, with increasing values to the right, and the imaginary part marks the vertical axis, with increasing values upwards. A complex number z, as a point (black) and its position vector (blue). A real number a can be regarded as a complex number a + 0i, whose imaginary part is 0.

  5. Subtended angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subtended_angle

    In geometry, an angle subtended (from Latin for "stretched under") by a line segment at an arbitrary vertex is formed by the two rays between the vertex and each endpoint of the segment.

  6. Help:Displaying a formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Displaying_a_formula

    Spaces within a formula must be directly managed (for example by including explicit hair or thin spaces). Variable names must be italicized explicitly, and superscripts and subscripts must use an explicit tag or template. Except for short formulas, the source of a formula typically has more markup overhead and can be difficult to read.

  7. Geometric series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_series

    The geometric series is an infinite series derived from a special type of sequence called a geometric progression.This means that it is the sum of infinitely many terms of geometric progression: starting from the initial term , and the next one being the initial term multiplied by a constant number known as the common ratio .

  8. Angle of view (photography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle_of_view_(photography)

    In 1916, Northey showed how to calculate the angle of view using ordinary carpenter's tools. [2] The angle that he labels as the angle of view is the half-angle or "the angle that a straight line would take from the extreme outside of the field of view to the center of the lens;" he notes that manufacturers of lenses use twice this angle.
