2. Pythagorean theorem - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagorean_theorem

   Interior angle Δθ = θ 1 −θ 2. The Pythagorean theorem is a special case of the more general theorem relating the lengths of sides in any triangle, the law of cosines, which states that where is the angle between sides and . [45] When is radians or 90°, then , and the formula reduces to the usual Pythagorean theorem.

3. Four-dimensional space - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-dimensional_space

   The 4-volume or hypervolume in 4D can be calculated in closed form for simple geometrical figures, such as the tesseract (s 4, for side length s) and the 4-ball (/ for radius r). Reasoning by analogy from familiar lower dimensions can be an excellent intuitive guide, but care must be exercised not to accept results that are not more rigorously ...

4. Geometry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometry

   v. t. e. Geometry (from Ancient Greek γεωμετρία (geōmetría) 'land measurement'; from γῆ (gê) 'earth, land' and μέτρον (métron) 'a measure') [1] is a branch of mathematics concerned with properties of space such as the distance, shape, size, and relative position of figures. [2] Geometry is, along with arithmetic, one of ...

5. Rotations in 4-dimensional Euclidean space - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotations_in_4-dimensional...

   In mathematics, the group of rotations about a fixed point in four-dimensional Euclidean space is denoted SO (4). The name comes from the fact that it is the special orthogonal group of order 4. In this article rotation means rotational displacement. For the sake of uniqueness, rotation angles are assumed to be in the segment [0, π] except ...

6. Surface (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_(mathematics)

   Often, a surface is defined by equations that are satisfied by the coordinates of its points. This is the case of the graph of a continuous function of two variables. The set of the zeros of a function of three variables is a surface, which is called an implicit surface. [1] If the defining three-variate function is a polynomial, the surface is ...

7. Mathematics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics

   Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes methods, theories and theorems that are developed and proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself. There are many areas of mathematics, which include number theory (the study of numbers), algebra (the study of formulas and related structures), geometry (the study ...
