    A similar calculation using the area of a circular sector θ = 2A/r 2 gives 1 radian as 1 m 2 /m 2 = 1. [35] The key fact is that the radian is a dimensionless unit equal to 1. In SI 2019, the SI radian is defined accordingly as 1 rad = 1. [36] It is a long-established practice in mathematics and across all areas of science to make use of rad ...

    The number of domino tilings of a 4×4 checkerboard is 36. [10] Since it is possible to find sequences of 36 consecutive integers such that each inner member shares a factor with either the first or the last member, 36 is an Erdős–Woods number. [11] The sum of the integers from 1 to 36 is 666 (see number of the beast). 36 is also a ...
