    This is a list of notable theorems. Lists of theorems and similar statements include: List of algebras. List of algorithms. List of axioms. List of conjectures. List of data structures. List of derivatives and integrals in alternative calculi. List of equations.

  3. Conformal map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conformal_map

    In mathematics, a conformal map is a function that locally preserves angles, but not necessarily lengths. More formally, let and be open subsets of . A function is called conformal (or angle-preserving) at a point if it preserves angles between directed curves through , as well as preserving orientation. Conformal maps preserve both angles and ...

  4. Lie theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lie_theory

    In these cases the Lie algebra parameters have names: angle, hyperbolic angle, and slope. [2] These species of angle are useful for providing polar decompositions which describe sub-algebras of 2 x 2 real matrices. [3] There is a classical 3-parameter Lie group and algebra pair: the quaternions of unit length which can be identified with the 3 ...

    Displayed here is the web color light pink.The name of the web color is written as "lightpink" (no space) in HTML for computer display. Although this color is called "light pink", as can be ascertained by inspecting its hex code, it is actually a slightly deeper, not a lighter, tint of pink than the color pink itself.

  6. Pick's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pick's_theorem

    In geometry, Pick's theorem provides a formula for the area of a simple polygon with integer vertex coordinates, in terms of the number of integer points within it and on its boundary. The result was first described by Georg Alexander Pick in 1899. [ 2] It was popularized in English by Hugo Steinhaus in the 1950 edition of his book Mathematical ...

  7. Tangent lines to circles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangent_lines_to_circles

    By the secant-tangent theorem, the square of this tangent length equals the power of the point P in the circle C. This power equals the product of distances from P to any two intersection points of the circle with a secant line passing through P. The angle θ between a chord and a tangent is half the arc belonging to the chord.

  8. Small-angle approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small-angle_approximation

    The small-angle approximations can be used to approximate the values of the main trigonometric functions, provided that the angle in question is small and is measured in radians : These approximations have a wide range of uses in branches of physics and engineering, including mechanics, electromagnetism, optics, cartography, astronomy, and ...

  9. Four color theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_color_theorem

    A four-colored map of the states of the United States (ignoring lakes and oceans) In mathematics, the four color theorem, or the four color map theorem, states that no more than four colors are required to color the regions of any map so that no two adjacent regions have the same color. Adjacent means that two regions share a common boundary of ...
