  3. Vector projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_projection

    The scalar projection is defined as [2] = ‖ ‖ ⁡ = ^ where the operator ⋅ denotes a dot product, ‖a‖ is the length of a, and θ is the angle between a and b. The scalar projection is equal in absolute value to the length of the vector projection, with a minus sign if the direction of the projection is opposite to the direction of b ...

  4. Multiview orthographic projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiview_orthographic...

    First-angle projection was widely used in the UK, but during World War II, British drawings sent to be manufactured in the USA, such as of the Rolls-Royce Merlin, had to be drawn in third-angle projection before they could be produced, e.g., as the Packard V-1650 Merlin. This meant that some British companies completely adopted third angle ...

    Diagram for vector projection proof. Let P be the point with coordinates (x 0, y 0) and let the given line have equation ax + by + c = 0. Also, let Q = (x 1, y 1) be any point on this line and n the vector (a, b) starting at point Q.

  6. Projection (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projection_(mathematics)

    The concept of projection in mathematics is a very old one, and most likely has its roots in the phenomenon of the shadows cast by real-world objects on the ground. This rudimentary idea was refined and abstracted, first in a geometric context and later in other branches of mathematics. Over time different versions of the concept developed, but ...

  7. Small-angle approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small-angle_approximation

    The sine and tangent small-angle approximations are used in relation to the double-slit experiment or a diffraction grating to develop simplified equations like the following, where y is the distance of a fringe from the center of maximum light intensity, m is the order of the fringe, D is the distance between the slits and projection screen ...

  8. Engineering drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_drawing

    A multiview projection is a type of orthographic projection that shows the object as it looks from the front, right, left, top, bottom, or back (e.g. the primary views), and is typically positioned relative to each other according to the rules of either first-angle or third-angle projection. The origin and vector direction of the projectors ...

  9. Geometric algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_algebra

    PGA allows projection, meet, and angle formulas to be derived from (,,) - with a very minor extension to the algebra it is also possible to derive distances and joins. PGA is a widely used system that combines geometric algebra with homogeneous representations in geometry, but there exist several other such systems.
