  2. Rule of four - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_four

    The "Rule of Four" has been explained by various Justices in judicial opinions throughout the years. [2] For example, Justice Felix Frankfurter described the rule as follows: "The 'rule of four' is not a command of Congress. It is a working rule devised by the Court as a practical mode of determining that a case is deserving of review, the ...

  3. Four color theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_color_theorem

    The following discussion is a summary based on the introduction to Every Planar Map is Four Colorable (Appel & Haken 1989). Although flawed, Kempe's original purported proof of the four color theorem provided some of the basic tools later used to prove it. The explanation here is reworded in terms of the modern graph theory formulation above.

  4. Four corners (law) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_corners_(law)

    The Four Corners Rule is a legal doctrine that courts use to determine the meaning of a written instrument such as a contract, will, or deed as represented solely by its textual content. The doctrine states that where there is an ambiguity of terms, the Court must rely on the written instrument solely and cannot consider extraneous evidence.

    De Morgan's laws represented with Venn diagrams.In each case, the resultant set is the set of all points in any shade of blue. In propositional logic and Boolean algebra, De Morgan's laws, [1] [2] [3] also known as De Morgan's theorem, [4] are a pair of transformation rules that are both valid rules of inference.

  6. Mathematical proof - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_proof

    In proof by exhaustion, the conclusion is established by dividing it into a finite number of cases and proving each one separately. The number of cases sometimes can become very large. For example, the first proof of the four color theorem was a proof by exhaustion with 1,936 cases. This proof was controversial because the majority of the cases ...

  7. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_rule

    The basic rule for divisibility by 4 is that if the number formed by the last two digits in a number is divisible by 4, the original number is divisible by 4; [2] [3] this is because 100 is divisible by 4 and so adding hundreds, thousands, etc. is simply adding another number that is divisible by 4. If any number ends in a two digit number that ...

  9. Five color theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_color_theorem

    Then either we are able to reverse the 2-4 coloration on the subgraph of , containing and paint color 2, or we can connect and with a path that consists of only color 2 and 4 vertices. Such a path would intersect the 1-3 colored path we constructed before since v 1 {\displaystyle v_{1}} through v 5 {\displaystyle v_{5}} were in cyclic order.
