atan2(y, x) returns the angle θ between the positive x-axis and the ray from the origin to the point (x, y), confined to (−π, π].Graph of (,) over /. In computing and mathematics, the function atan2 is the 2-argument arctangent.
This article uses the standard notation ISO 80000-2, which supersedes ISO 31-11, for spherical coordinates (other sources may reverse the definitions of θ and φ): . The polar angle is denoted by [,]: it is the angle between the z-axis and the radial vector connecting the origin to the point in question.
In particular √ D belongs to [], being a root of the equation x 2 − D = 0, which has 4D as its discriminant. The square root of any integer is a quadratic integer, as every integer can be written n = m 2 D, where D is a square-free integer, and its square root is a root of x 2 − m 2 D = 0.
A method analogous to piece-wise linear approximation but using only arithmetic instead of algebraic equations, uses the multiplication tables in reverse: the square root of a number between 1 and 100 is between 1 and 10, so if we know 25 is a perfect square (5 × 5), and 36 is a perfect square (6 × 6), then the square root of a number greater than or equal to 25 but less than 36, begins with ...
The Källén function, also known as triangle function, is a polynomial function in three variables, which appears in geometry and particle physics.In the latter field it is usually denoted by the symbol .
As (+) = and (+) + =, the sum and the product of conjugate expressions do not involve the square root anymore. This property is used for removing a square root from a denominator , by multiplying the numerator and the denominator of a fraction by the conjugate of the denominator (see Rationalisation ).
Coordinate surfaces of the conical coordinates. The constants b and c were chosen as 1 and 2, respectively. The red sphere represents r = 2, the blue elliptic cone aligned with the vertical z-axis represents μ=cosh(1) and the yellow elliptic cone aligned with the (green) x-axis corresponds to ν 2 = 2/3.
Notation for the (principal) square root of x. For example, √ 25 = 5, since 25 = 5 ⋅ 5, or 5 2 (5 squared). In mathematics, a square root of a number x is a number y such that =; in other words, a number y whose square (the result of multiplying the number by itself, or ) is x. [1]
