  2. List of formulae involving π - Wikipedia

    is the number of collisions made (in ideal conditions, perfectly elastic with no friction) by an object of mass m initially at rest between a fixed wall and another object of mass b 2N m, when struck by the other object. [1] (This gives the digits of π in base b up to N digits past the radix point.)

  3. Mathematical constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_constant

    The square root of 2 is equal to the length of the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle with legs of length 1.. The square root of 2, often known as root 2 or Pythagoras' constant, and written as √ 2, is the unique positive real number that, when multiplied by itself, gives the number 2.

  4. Euler's identity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_identity

    The computation of (1 + ⁠ iπ / N ⁠) N is displayed as the combined effect of N repeated multiplications in the complex plane, with the final point being the actual value of (1 + ⁠ iπ / N ⁠) N. It can be seen that as N gets larger (1 + ⁠ iπ / N ⁠) N approaches a limit of −1. Euler's identity asserts that is

    In other words, the n th digit of this number is 1 only if n is one of 1! = 1, 2! = 2, 3! = 6, 4! = 24, etc. Liouville showed that this number belongs to a class of transcendental numbers that can be more closely approximated by rational numbers than can any irrational algebraic number, and this class of numbers is called the Liouville numbers ...

    Here, 2 is being multiplied by 3 using scaling, giving 6 as a result. Animation for the multiplication 2 × 3 = 6 4 × 5 = 20. The large rectangle is made up of 20 squares, each 1 unit by 1 unit. Area of a cloth 4.5m × 2.5m = 11.25m 2; 4 ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ × 2 ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ = 11 ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠

  7. Euler's totient function - Wikipedia

    As another example, φ(1) = 1 since for n = 1 the only integer in the range from 1 to n is 1 itself, and gcd(1, 1) = 1. Euler's totient function is a multiplicative function , meaning that if two numbers m and n are relatively prime, then φ ( mn ) = φ ( m ) φ ( n ) .

  8. Machin-like formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machin-like_formula

    The total time is 1.1191 + 0.8672 = 1.9863 The conclusion, based on this particular model, is that equation 6 is slightly faster than equation 5, regardless of the fact that equation 6 has more terms. This result is typical of the general trend.

  9. List of logarithmic identities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_logarithmic_identities

    For example, two numbers can be multiplied just by using a logarithm table and adding. These are often known as logarithmic properties, which are documented in the table below. [2] The first three operations below assume that x = b c and/or y = b d, so that log b (x) = c and log b (y) = d. Derivations also use the log definitions x = b log b (x ...
