  2. Mean line segment length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_line_segment_length

    To approximate the mean line segment length of a given shape, two points are randomly chosen in its interior and the distance is measured. After several repetitions of these steps, the average of these distances will eventually converge to the true value. These methods can only give an approximation; they cannot be used to determine its exact ...

  3. Euler method - Wikipedia

    The next step is to multiply the above value by the step size , which we take equal to one here: h ⋅ f ( y 0 ) = 11 = 1. {\displaystyle h\cdot f(y_{0})=1\cdot 1=1.} Since the step size is the change in t {\displaystyle t} , when we multiply the step size and the slope of the tangent, we get a change in y {\displaystyle y} value.

    Plot of normalized ⁡ function (i.e. ⁡ ()) with its spectral frequency components.. The unitary Fourier transforms of the rectangular function are [2] ⁡ = ⁡ = ⁡ (), using ordinary frequency f, where is the normalized form [10] of the sinc function and ⁡ = ⁡ (/) / = ⁡ (/), using angular frequency , where is the unnormalized form of the sinc function.

  5. Euclidean algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_algorithm

    To find the latter, consider two solutions, (x 1, y 1) and (x 2, y 2), where ax 1 + by 1 = c = ax 2 + by 2. or equivalently a(x 1x 2) = b(y 2 − y 1). Therefore, the smallest difference between two x solutions is b/g, whereas the smallest difference between two y solutions is a/g. Thus, the solutions may be expressed as x = x 1 − bu/g y ...

    The coefficients found by Fehlberg for Formula 2 (derivation with his parameter α 2 = 3/8) are given in the table below, using array indexing of base 1 instead of base 0 to be compatible with most computer languages:

  7. Rectangle packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectangle_packing

    The big rectangle has width m and length T + 3m. Every solution to the 3-partition instance induces a packing of the rectangles into m subsets such that the total length in each subset is exactly T, so they exactly fit into the big rectangle. Conversely, in any packing of the big rectangle, there must be no "holes", so the rectangles must not ...

  8. Shoelace formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoelace_formula

    Shoelace scheme for determining the area of a polygon with point coordinates (,),..., (,). The shoelace formula, also known as Gauss's area formula and the surveyor's formula, [1] is a mathematical algorithm to determine the area of a simple polygon whose vertices are described by their Cartesian coordinates in the plane. [2]

  9. Heptagon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heptagon

    The impossibility of straightedge and compass construction follows from the observation that ⁡ is a zero of the irreducible cubic x 3 + x 2 − 2x − 1. Consequently, this polynomial is the minimal polynomial of 2cos( 2π ⁄ 7 ), whereas the degree of the minimal polynomial for a constructible number must be a power of 2.
