  2. Hyperbola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbola

    Many other mathematical objects have their origin in the hyperbola, such as hyperbolic paraboloids (saddle surfaces), hyperboloids ("wastebaskets"), hyperbolic geometry (Lobachevsky's celebrated non-Euclidean geometry), hyperbolic functions (sinh, cosh, tanh, etc.), and gyrovector spaces (a geometry proposed for use in both relativity and ...

  3. Hyperbole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbole

    Hyperbole is one of the most widely recognized and used forms of figurative language in everyday life. It is used heavily in advertising and entertainment. Advertisers use hyperbole to exaggerate the benefits of products to boost sales. Repetitive hyperbole is used in public relations to increase the popularity of a person or product. It is ...

  4. Hyperbolic functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_functions

    The hyperbolic sine and the hyperbolic cosine are entire functions. As a result, the other hyperbolic functions are meromorphic in the whole complex plane. By Lindemann–Weierstrass theorem , the hyperbolic functions have a transcendental value for every non-zero algebraic value of the argument.

  5. Hyperbolic geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_geometry

    Therefore all hyperbolic triangles have an area less than or equal to R 2 π. The area of a hyperbolic ideal triangle in which all three angles are 0° is equal to this maximum. As in Euclidean geometry, each hyperbolic triangle has an incircle. In hyperbolic space, if all three of its vertices lie on a horocycle or hypercycle, then the ...

  6. Hyperbolic angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_angle

    The curve represents xy = 1. A hyperbolic angle has magnitude equal to the area of the corresponding hyperbolic sector, which is in standard position if a = 1. In geometry, hyperbolic angle is a real number determined by the area of the corresponding hyperbolic sector of xy = 1 in Quadrant I of the Cartesian plane.

    Despite this, the Twins won the AL Central and knocked the Blue Jays out of the postseason. Buxton was a 0.8 WAR player last season after being at least 4.0 the previous two seasons.

  8. Hyperbolic distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_distribution

    The hyperbolic distribution is a continuous probability distribution characterized by the logarithm of the probability density function being a hyperbola. Thus the distribution decreases exponentially, which is more slowly than the normal distribution. It is therefore suitable to model phenomena where numerically large values are more probable ...

  9. Hyperbolic coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_coordinates

    Hyperbolic coordinates plotted on the Euclidean plane: all points on the same blue ray share the same coordinate value u, and all points on the same red hyperbola share the same coordinate value v. In mathematics, hyperbolic coordinates are a method of locating points in quadrant I of the Cartesian plane
