HYPERBOLIC GEOMETRY AND OMEGA TRIANGLES Hyperbolic geometry was first discovered and explored by Omar Khayyam in the 9th century and Giovanni Gerolamo Saccheri in the 15th century. Both were attempting to prove Euclid’s parallel postulate by proving the concept of hyperbolic geometry to be inconsistent‚ and ironically they discovered it to be a new type of geometry. It wasn’t until the 19th century that it became fully developed with help from Karl Friedrich Gauss‚ Janos Bolyai‚ and Nikolai

Question:An architect designs two houses that are shaped and positioned like a part of the branches of the hyperbola whose equation is 625y^2 - 400x^2=250‚000‚ where x and y are in yards. How far apart are the houses at their closeset point? Answers:625y^2 - 400x^2=250‚000 y^2 / 20^2 - x^2 / 25^2 = 1 The closest two points on separate branches are the vertices‚ and their separation is 2 * 20 = 40yd. I find the question a little confusing‚ though. Question:LORAN (long distance radio navigation)

C OORDINATE GEOMETRY COORDINATE GEOMETRY 155 7 7.1 Introduction In Class IX‚ you have studied that to locate the position of a point on a plane‚ we require a pair of coordinate axes. The distance of a point from the y-axis is called its x-coordinate‚ or abscissa. The distance of a point from the x-axis is called its y-coordinate‚ or ordinate. The coordinates of a point on the x-axis are of the form (x‚ 0)‚ and of a point on the y-axis are of the form (0‚ y). Here is a play for you. Draw a set

When it comes to Euclidean Geometry‚ Spherical Geometry and Hyperbolic Geometry there are many similarities and differences among them. For example‚ what may be true for Euclidean Geometry may not be true for Spherical or Hyperbolic Geometry. Many instances exist where something is true for one or two geometries but not the other geometry. However‚ sometimes a property is true for all three geometries. These points bring us to the purpose of this paper. This paper is an opportunity for me to

Business Ethics May 4‚ 1999 Final Exam Manipulative Advertising According to Tom L. Beauchamp‚ manipulative advertising "limits free and informed action" (472). It is sort of like convincing customers to purchase something‚ but it is based on incorrect or inconclusive information. "Advertisers use attractive rates‚ enticing images‚ and a variety of forms of suggestion to hinder or block reasoned choice" (479). One example is "phony discounting where retailers present fake percentage

Manipulative Behavior There are many concepts that involve the United States. When someone talks about the US in the 1900’s they may think of four main concepts. These are sovereignty‚ oppression‚ freedom and liberty. These can be incorporated to not only define America but also other market systems. These four concepts all intertwine within one another. Certain people in the United States had to go through oppression and they fought for liberty and freedom whether it was the African Americans or
