The Sarbanes-Oxley Act The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002(SOX which is also known as the Public Company Accounting Reform and Investor Protection Act was enacted in July‚ 30‚ 2002 as a prompt response to the financial crimes scandals (Adelphia‚ Enron‚ WorldCom‚ Peregrime Systems ‚ Arther Anderson and Tyco International). SOX establishes new‚ stricter standards for all US publicly traded companies. It does not apply to privately companies. The Act is administered by the Securities and Exchange Commission

are congruent. Angle Postulates Angle Addition Postulate If a point lies on the interior of an angle‚ that angle is the sum of two smaller angles with legs that go through the given point. Consider the figure below in which point T lies on the interior of ?QRS. By this postulate‚ we have that ?QRS = ?QRT + ?TRS. We have actually applied this postulate when we practiced finding the complements and supplements of angles in the previous section. Corresponding Angles Postulate If a transversal intersects

for his dissertation on mathematics. He was able to create "The Elements" which included the composition of many other famous mathematicians together. He began exploring math because he felt that he needed to compile certain things and fix certain postulates and theorems. His book included‚ many of Eudoxus’ theorems‚ he perfected many of Theaetetus’s theorems also. Much of Euclid’s background is very vague and unknown. It is unreliable to say whether some things about him are true‚ there are two types

Geometry is simply the study of space. There are Euclidean and Non-Euclidean Geometries. Euclidean geometry is the most common and is the basis for other Non-Euclidean types of geometry. Euclidean geometry is based on five main rules‚ or postulates. Differences in these rules are what make new kinds of geometries. There is Euclidean‚ Elliptic‚ and Hyperbolic Geometry. Euclidean geometry is the study of flat space and was invented by Euclid‚ a mathematician from Alexandria‚ in 330 B.C. Euclid described

Postulate #2: the organism should be isolated from the tissues of the infected animal and grown in a pure culture iii. Postulate #3: the organism from the pure culture is inoculated into a healthy animal and the same disease should be reproduced iv. Postulate #4: the pathogen must be isolated from the experimental animal

Non-Euclidean geometry is any form of geometry that is based on axioms‚ or postulates‚ different from those of Euclidean geometry. These geometries were developed by mathematicians to find a way to prove Euclid’s fifth postulate as a theorem using his other four postulates. They were not accepted until around the nineteenth century. These geometries are based on a curved plane‚ whether it is elliptic or hyperbolic. There are no parallel lines in non-Euclidean geometry‚ and the angles of triangles

about how science is carried out by designing inquiry-based labs. With this in mind‚ a few times during this semester‚ we will ask you to work with your bench mates to design an experiment that will test a given hypothesis—first‚ about Koch’s Postulates‚ then about tracking bacteria in the environment. As a model‚ we will provide you with a mini-publication of an experiment testing a similar hypothesis. These reports should provide you with the background information and methods you need to

actions of the molecules making up the gas. The Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases begins with five postulates that describe the behavior of molecules in a gas. These postulates are based upon some simple‚ basic scientific notions‚ but they also involve some simplying assumptions. In reading a postulate‚ do two things. First‚ try to understand and appreciate the basic physical idea embodied in the postulate; this idea will ultimately be important in understanding the macroscopic properties of the gas
