PR is the diameter of a circle centered on O; its radius AO is the arithmetic mean of a and b. Using the geometric mean theorem, triangle PGR's altitude GQ is the geometric mean. For any ratio a:b, AO ≥ GQ. A semicircle can be used to construct the arithmetic and geometric means of two lengths using straight-edge and compass.
For crossing wires that are insulated from one another, a small semi-circle symbol is commonly used to show one wire "jumping over" the other wire [3] [7] [8] (similar to how jumper wires are used). A common, hybrid style of drawing combines the T-junction crossovers with "dot" connections and the wire "jump" semi-circle symbols for insulated ...
Butterfield compass graphometer A German graphometer in Göttingen, Stadtmuseum. The instrument is on its side. At the back, the socket for a Jacob's staff can be seen.. The graphometer, semicircle or semicircumferentor is a surveying instrument used for angle measurements.
A conic is the curve obtained as the intersection of a plane, called the cutting plane, with the surface of a double cone (a cone with two nappes).It is usually assumed that the cone is a right circular cone for the purpose of easy description, but this is not required; any double cone with some circular cross-section will suffice.
Given three points A, B and C on a circle with center O, the angle ∠ AOC is twice as large as the angle ∠ ABC. A related result to Thales's theorem is the following: If AC is a diameter of a circle, then: If B is inside the circle, then ∠ ABC > 90° If B is on the circle, then ∠ ABC = 90° If B is outside the circle, then ∠ ABC < 90°.
