  2. Machin-like formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machin-like_formula

    The total time is 1.1191 + 0.8672 = 1.9863 The conclusion, based on this particular model, is that equation 6 is slightly faster than equation 5, regardless of the fact that equation 6 has more terms. This result is typical of the general trend. The dominant factor is the ratio between and . In order to achieve a high ratio, it is necessary to ...

    Note: solving for ′ returns the resultant angle in the first quadrant (< <). To find , one must refer to the original Cartesian coordinate, determine the quadrant in which lies (for example, (3,−3) [Cartesian] lies in QIV), then use the following to solve for :

    Subtracting ⁡ from both sides and dividing by 2 by two yields the power-reduction formula for sine: ⁡ = (⁡ ()). The half-angle formula for sine can be obtained by replacing θ {\displaystyle \theta } with θ / 2 {\displaystyle \theta /2} and taking the square-root of both sides: sin ⁡ ( θ / 2 ) = ± ( 1 − cos ⁡ θ ) / 2 ...

    ((x),(y) = {239, 13 2} is a solution to the Pell equation x 22 y 2 = −1.) Formulae of this kind are known as Machin-like formulae . Machin's particular formula was used well into the computer era for calculating record numbers of digits of π , [ 39 ] but more recently other similar formulae have been used as well.

    Similarly / = is a constructible angle because 12 is a power of two (4) times a Fermat prime (3). But π / 9 = 20 ∘ {\displaystyle \pi /9=20^{\circ }} is not a constructible angle, since 9 = 3 ⋅ 3 {\displaystyle 9=3\cdot 3} is not the product of distinct Fermat primes as it contains 3 as a factor twice, and neither is π / 7 ≈ 25.714 ∘ ...
