Angle is the figure formed by two rays‚ called the sides of the angle‚ sharing a common endpoint‚ called the vertex of the angle. Angles are usually presumed to be in a Euclidean plane‚ but are also defined in non-Euclidean geometry. Angle is also used to designate the measure of an angle or of a rotation. This measure is the ratio of the length of a circular arc to its radius. In the case of an angle (figure)‚ the arc is centered at the vertex and delimited by the sides. In the case of a rotation

Fermat’s last theorem Currently holding the world record for longest standing math problem ever‚ Fermat’s last theorem went unsolved for 365 years. Fermat’s last theorem was one of the largest white whales in the study of math. Over the centuries‚ thousands were puzzled by the impossible problem. From its conception to its solution‚ Fermat’s last theorem was one of the most difficult to solve yet easy to understand problems in mathematics. First‚ I will discuss the theorem and how it was introduced

Introduction and Theory: A two dimensional object is a figure that has both width and height. Today in physics a two dimensional lab was done to decide the distance of an ice cream cone shooter. To do this‚ the formula (d=Ví t + (1/2) at^2) has to be implemented. I decided to make my Y equal to one meter‚ so my calculations would be easy to get. I knew my acceleration for Y was -9.8‚ the velocity initial for Y was zero‚ and the time it will take for the ice cream to reach zero is .452. For X I know

+ to – or from – to +; and as many false [negative] roots as the number of times two + signs or two – signs are found in succession.” Analytic Geometry Descartes’ greatest contribution to mathematics was developing analytic geometry. The most basic definition of analytic geometry is applying algebra to geometry. Descartes established analytic geometry as “a way of visualizing algebraic formulas”. He developed the coordinate system as a “device to locate points on a plane”. The coordinate system

Aaron Griffin Math 4091A March 17‚ 2015 The Cartesian Coordinate System Linear inequalities (statements such as “4≤X+10<18”) can be represented graphically along a number line. In similar manner‚ a linear equation in two variables (this being the form ax+by=c) can also be represented graphically‚ using two axes; the x axis‚ the horizontal plane‚ and the y axis‚ the vertical plane. There are memory tricks with which to distinguish the x from the y axis and remember their horizontal and vertical
