  2. Law of cotangents - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_cotangents

    In trigonometry, the law of cotangents is a relationship among the lengths of the sides of a triangle and the cotangents of the halves of the three angles. [1] [2]Just as three quantities whose equality is expressed by the law of sines are equal to the diameter of the circumscribed circle of the triangle (or to its reciprocal, depending on how the law is expressed), so also the law of ...

  3. Conway triangle notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway_triangle_notation

    In geometry, the Conway triangle notation, named after John Horton Conway, allows trigonometric functions of a triangle to be managed algebraically. Given a reference triangle whose sides are a, b and c and whose corresponding internal angles are A, B, and C then the Conway triangle notation is simply represented as follows:

  4. Law of tangents - Wikipedia

    compute the angle difference α − β = Δ; use that to calculate β = (180° − γ − Δ)/2 and then α = β + Δ. Once an angle opposite a known side is computed, the remaining side c can be computed using the law of sines.

    The above formula is known as the shoelace formula or the surveyor's formula. If we locate the vertices in the complex plane and denote them in counterclockwise sequence as a = x A + y A i , b = x B + y B i , and c = x C + y C i , and denote their complex conjugates as a ¯ {\displaystyle {\bar {a}}} , b ¯ {\displaystyle {\bar {b}}} , and c ...

(Also written as.) det – determinant of a matrix or linear transformation. DFT – discrete Fourier transform. dim – dimension of a vector space.

    We define the Lie derivative: () through Cartan's magic formula for a given section () as L X = d ∘ ι X + ι X ∘ d . {\displaystyle {\mathcal {L}}_{X}=d\circ \iota _{X}+\iota _{X}\circ d.} It describes the change of a k {\displaystyle k} -form along a flow ϕ t {\displaystyle \phi _{t}} associated to the section X {\displaystyle X} .

  8. Trigonometric functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonometric_functions

    Basis of trigonometry: if two right triangles have equal acute angles, they are similar, so their corresponding side lengths are proportional.. In mathematics, the trigonometric functions (also called circular functions, angle functions or goniometric functions) [1] are real functions which relate an angle of a right-angled triangle to ratios of two side lengths.
