  2. 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. The dominant factor is the ratio between and . In order to achieve a high ratio, it is necessary to ...

  3. Arctangent series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arctangent_series

    The derivative of arctan x is 1 / (1 + x 2); conversely, the integral of 1 / (1 + x 2) is arctan x. ... (it takes five billion terms to obtain 10 correct decimal ...

    Subtracting ⁡ from both sides and dividing by 2 by two yields the power-reduction formula for sine: ⁡ = (⁡ ()). The half-angle formula for sine can be obtained by replacing θ {\displaystyle \theta } with θ / 2 {\displaystyle \theta /2} and taking the square-root of both sides: sin ⁡ ( θ / 2 ) = ± ( 1 − cos ⁡ θ ) / 2 ...

  5. Proofs of trigonometric identities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proofs_of_trigonometric...

    This geometric argument relies on definitions of arc length and area, which act as assumptions, so it is rather a condition imposed in construction of trigonometric functions than a provable property. [2] For the sine function, we can handle other values. If θ > π /2, then θ > 1. But sin θ ≤ 1 (because of the Pythagorean identity), so sin ...

    Similarly / = is a constructible angle because 12 is a power of two (4) times a Fermat prime (3). But π / 9 = 20 ∘ {\displaystyle \pi /9=20^{\circ }} is not a constructible angle, since 9 = 3 ⋅ 3 {\displaystyle 9=3\cdot 3} is not the product of distinct Fermat primes as it contains 3 as a factor twice, and neither is π / 7 ≈ 25.714 ∘ ...

    Note: solving for ′ returns the resultant angle in the first quadrant (< <). To find , one must refer to the original Cartesian coordinate, determine the quadrant in which lies (for example, (3,−3) [Cartesian] lies in QIV), then use the following to solve for :

  8. Angular diameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_diameter

    (The Sun's diameter is 400 times as large and its distance also; the Sun is 200,000 to 500,000 times as bright as the full Moon (figures vary), corresponding to an angular diameter ratio of 450 to 700, so a celestial body with a diameter of 2.5–4″ and the same brightness per unit solid angle would have the same brightness as the full Moon.)

  9. atan2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atan2

    In Mathematica, the form ArcTan[x, y] is used where the one parameter form supplies the normal arctangent. Mathematica classifies ArcTan[0, 0] as an indeterminate expression. On most TI graphing calculators (excluding the TI-85 and TI-86 ), the equivalent function is called R Pθ and has the arguments ( Re , Im ) {\displaystyle (\operatorname ...
