  2. Ogive (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ogive_(statistics)

    To do this, we draw a line from the point of 50% on the axis of percentage until it intersects with the curve. Then we vertically project the intersection onto the horizontal axis. The last intersection gives us the desired value. The frequency polygon and ogive are used to compare two statistical sets whose number could be different.

    For example, in a polyhedron (3-dimensional polytope), a face is a facet, an edge is a ridge, and a vertex is a peak. Vertex figure: not itself an element of a polytope, but a diagram showing how the elements meet.

    A secant ogive of sharpness = / = The ogive shape of the Space Shuttle external tank Ogive on a 9×19mm Parabellum cartridge. An ogive (/ ˈ oʊ dʒ aɪ v / OH-jyve) is the roundly tapered end of a two- or three-dimensional object. Ogive curves and surfaces are used in engineering, architecture, woodworking, and ballistics.

  7. Nose cone design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nose_cone_design

    The ogive radius ρ is not determined by R and L (as it is for a tangent ogive), but rather is one of the factors to be chosen to define the nose shape. If the chosen ogive radius of a secant ogive is greater than the ogive radius of a tangent ogive with the same R and L, then the resulting secant ogive appears as a tangent ogive with a portion ...
