The history of the problem dates back at least to Gersonides, who proved a special case of the conjecture in 1343 where (x, y) was restricted to be (2, 3) or (3, 2).The first significant progress after Catalan made his conjecture came in 1850 when Victor-Amédée Lebesgue dealt with the case b = 2.
The book advocates replacing the usual basic quantities of trigonometry, Euclidean distance and angle measure, by squared distance and the square of the sine of the angle, respectively. This is logically equivalent to the standard development (as the replacement quantities can be expressed in terms of the standard ones and vice versa).
A transversal produces 8 angles, as shown in the graph at the above left: 4 with each of the two lines, namely α, β, γ and δ and then α 1, β 1, γ 1 and δ 1; and; 4 of which are interior (between the two lines), namely α, β, γ 1 and δ 1 and 4 of which are exterior, namely α 1, β 1, γ and δ.
A quadrilateral such as BCEF is called an adventitious quadrangle when the angles between its diagonals and sides are all rational angles, angles that give rational numbers when measured in degrees or other units for which the whole circle is a rational number. Numerous adventitious quadrangles beyond the one appearing in Langley's puzzle have ...
The lemma concerns the angles made by consecutive pairs of creases at a single vertex of the crease pattern. It states that if any one of these angles is a local minimum (that is, smaller than the two angles on either side of it), then exactly one of the two creases bounding the angle must be a mountain fold and exactly one must be a valley fold.
Angle trisection is the construction, using only a straightedge and a compass, of an angle that is one-third of a given arbitrary angle. This is impossible in the general case. For example, the angle 2 π /5 radians (72° = 360°/5) can be trisected, but the angle of π /3 radians (60°) cannot be trisected. [8]
In several high school treatments of geometry, the term "exterior angle theorem" has been applied to a different result, [1] namely the portion of Proposition 1.32 which states that the measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of the remote interior angles. This result, which depends upon Euclid's parallel ...
