  2. Radian - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radian

    The radian, denoted by the symbol rad, is the unit of angle in the International System of Units (SI) and is the standard unit of angular measure used in many areas of mathematics. It is defined such that one radian is the angle subtended at the centre of a circle by an arc that is equal in length to the radius. [2]

  3. Circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle

    where a is the radius of the circle, (,) are the polar coordinates of a generic point on the circle, and (,) are the polar coordinates of the centre of the circle (i.e., r 0 is the distance from the origin to the centre of the circle, and φ is the anticlockwise angle from the positive x axis to the line connecting the origin to the centre of ...

  4. Complete graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complete_graph

    The complement graph of a complete graph is an empty graph. If the edges of a complete graph are each given an orientation, the resulting directed graph is called a tournament. K n can be decomposed into n trees T i such that T i has i vertices. [6] Ringel's conjecture asks if the complete graph K 2n+1 can be decomposed into copies of any tree ...

  5. Unit circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_circle

    Since C = 2πr, the circumference of a unit circle is 2π. In mathematics, a unit circle is a circle of unit radius—that is, a radius of 1. [1] Frequently, especially in trigonometry, the unit circle is the circle of radius 1 centered at the origin (0, 0) in the Cartesian coordinate system in the Euclidean plane.

  6. Solid angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_angle

    This gives the expected results of 4 π steradians for the 3D sphere bounded by a surface of area 4πr 2 and 2 π radians for the 2D circle bounded by a circumference of length 2πr. It also gives the slightly less obvious 2 for the 1D case, in which the origin-centered 1D "sphere" is the interval [− r , r ] and this is bounded by two ...

    Graph of ⁡ (,) over / In computing and mathematics , the function atan2 is the 2- argument arctangent . By definition, θ = atan2 ⁡ ( y , x ) {\displaystyle \theta =\operatorname {atan2} (y,x)} is the angle measure (in radians , with − π < θ ≤ π {\displaystyle -\pi <\theta \leq \pi } ) between the positive x {\displaystyle x} -axis ...

  8. Spherical trigonometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_trigonometry

    In particular, the sum of the angles of a spherical triangle is strictly greater than the sum of the angles of a triangle defined on the Euclidean plane, which is always exactly π radians. Sides are also expressed in radians. A side (regarded as a great circle arc) is measured by the angle that it subtends at the centre.

  9. Binary angular measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_angular_measurement

    Binary angular measurement (BAM) [1] (and the binary angular measurement system, BAMS [2]) is a measure of angles using binary numbers and fixed-point arithmetic, in which a full turn is represented by the value 1. The unit of angular measure used in those methods may be called binary radian (brad) or binary degree.
