  2. Cubic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_function

    The points T 1, T 2, and T 3 (in red) are the intersections of the (dotted) tangent lines to the graph at these points with the graph itself. They are collinear too. The tangent lines to the graph of a cubic function at three collinear points intercept the cubic again at collinear points. [4] This can be seen as follows.

  3. Signed area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signed_area

    The blue area above the x-axis may be specified as positive area, while the yellow area below the x-axis is the negative area. The integral of a real function can be imagined as the signed area between the x {\displaystyle x} -axis and the curve y = f ( x ) {\displaystyle y=f(x)} over an interval [ a , b ].

  4. 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]

  5. Cartesian coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_coordinate_system

    There are two degrees of freedom in the choice of Cartesian coordinate system for a line, which can be specified by choosing two distinct points along the line and assigning them to two distinct real numbers (most commonly zero and one). Other points can then be uniquely assigned to numbers by linear interpolation.

  6. Quadrant (plane geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrant_(plane_geometry)

    The expression reads "All Science Teachers Crazy" and proceeding counterclockwise from the upper right quadrant, we see that "All" functions are positive in quadrant I, "Science" (for sine) is positive in quadrant II, "Teachers" (for tangent) is positive in quadrant III, and "Crazy" (for cosine) is positive in quadrant IV.

  7. Claw-free graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claw-free_graph

    In graph theory, an area of mathematics, a claw-free graph is a graph that does not have a claw as an induced subgraph. A claw is another name for the complete bipartite graph K 1 , 3 {\displaystyle K_{1,3}} (that is, a star graph comprising three edges, three leaves, and a central vertex).

  8. Quadtree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadtree

    The point quadtree [3] is an adaptation of a binary tree used to represent two-dimensional point data. It shares the features of all quadtrees but is a true tree as the center of a subdivision is always on a point. It is often very efficient in comparing two-dimensional, ordered data points, usually operating in O(log n) time.

  9. Pick's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pick's_theorem

    Farey sunburst of order 6, with 1 interior (red) and 96 boundary (green) points giving an area of 1 + ⁠ 96 / 2 ⁠ − 1 = 48 [1]. In geometry, Pick's theorem provides a formula for the area of a simple polygon with integer vertex coordinates, in terms of the number of integer points within it and on its boundary.
