    8 standard pattern Play ⓘ) and triple-pulse (12/8) form (Play ⓘ The seven-stroke standard bell pattern contains the strokes of both clave patterns. Some North American musicians call this pattern clave. [44] [45] Other North American musicians refer to the triple-pulse form as the 6 8 bell because they write the pattern in two measures of 6 8.

  3. Time signature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_signature

    Most time signatures consist of two numerals, one stacked above the other: The lower numeral indicates the note value that the signature is counting. This number is always a power of 2 (unless the time signature is irrational), usually 2, 4 or 8, but less often 16 is also used, usually in Baroque music. 2 corresponds to the half note (minim), 4 to the quarter note (crotchet), 8 to the eighth ...

    218 as 74 with 3 subdivisions. Septuple meter (British: metre) or (chiefly British) septuple time is a meter with each bar (American: measure) divided into 7 notes of equal duration, usually 74 or 78 (or in compound meter, 218 time). The stress pattern can be 2+2+3, 3+2+2, or occasionally 2+3+2, although a survey of certain forms of mostly ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattern_blocks

    Pattern Blocks. Pattern Blocks are a set of mathematical manipulatives developed in the 1960s. The six shapes are both a play resource and a tool for learning in mathematics, which serve to develop spatial reasoning skills that are fundamental to the learning of mathematics. Among other things, they allow children to see how shapes can be ...

  6. Modular arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_arithmetic

    Adding 4 hours to 9 o'clock gives 1 o'clock, since 13 is congruent to 1 modulo 12. In mathematics, modular arithmetic is a system of arithmetic for integers, where numbers "wrap around" when reaching a certain value, called the modulus. The modern approach to modular arithmetic was developed by Carl Friedrich Gauss in his book Disquisitiones ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_paper_folding

    Mathematics of paper folding. Map folding for a 2×2 grid of squares: there are eight different ways to fold such a map along its creases. The discipline of origami or paper folding has received a considerable amount of mathematical study. Fields of interest include a given paper model's flat-foldability (whether the model can be flattened ...

  8. J-pole antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J-pole_antenna

    The J-pole antenna is an end-fed omnidirectional half-wave antenna that is matched to the feedline by a shorted quarter-wave parallel transmission line stub. [5] [1] [6] For a transmitting antenna to operate efficiently, absorbing all the power provided by its feedline, the antenna must be impedance matched to the line; it must have a resistance equal to the feedline's characteristic impedance.

  9. Frieze group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frieze_group

    Frieze group. In mathematics, a frieze or frieze pattern is a two-dimensional design that repeats in one direction. The term is derived from architecture and decorative arts, where such repeating patterns are often used. (See frieze.) Frieze patterns can be classified into seven types according to their symmetries.
