Trigonometry uses the fact that ratios of pairs of sides of triangles are functions of the angles. The basis for mensuration of triangles is the right- angled triangle. The term trigonometry means literally the measurement of triangles. Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that developed from simple measurements. A theorem is the most important result in all of elementary mathematics. It was the motivation for a wealth of advanced mathematics‚ such as Fermat’s Last Theorem and the theory

Business Rules and Data Models Strayer University CIS-111 Prof. A database is a structure that contains information about many different categories of information and about the relationships between those categories (Pratt & Adamsk 2010). Database objects are entities that exist within a database to support operations such as storing‚ retrieving and manipulating data. Organizations use large amounts of data and database management system to store and transform data into information to support

Pythagorean Theorem: Some False Proofs Even smart people make mistakes. Some mistakes are getting published and thus live for posterity to learn from. I ’ll list below some fallacious proofs of the Pythagorean theorem that I came across. Some times the errors are subtle and involve circular reasoning or fact misinterpretation. On occasion‚ a glaring error is committed in logic and leaves one wondering how it could have avoided being noticed by the authors and editors. Proof 1 One such error appears

prisoners‚ and normal male employees harassing their female coworkers. All of the listed cases demonstrate how difficult it is to violate an established social structure‚ even when following the social structure violates personal morals. Milgram’s findings‚ as read in the article “If Hitler Asked You to Electrocute a Stranger‚ Would You?”‚ apply to the first case of a manager and her fiancé ordering a teenage girl to strip and her following their commands. Milgram’s data suggested that humans are obedient

In the poem “When You Are Old‚” by W.B. Yeats‚ the speaker is addressing a bygone lover of his. Through the poem the speaker is both loving and haughty towards the woman. The speaker appears to be very fond of the woman‚ but he is also somewhat vain and self absorbed. He speaks to her with love and sincerity at some points in the poem; then he also addresses her in a tone that is far from love and is bordering on haughty disposition. The diction and imagery play vital roles in creating the tone

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

Application There are some applications of Thevenin’s Theorem in our daily lives. Thevenin’s Theorem is very useful to reduce a network with several voltage sources and resistors to an equivalent circuit composed a single voltage source and a single resistance connected to a load only. It is used in simplifying and analysing complex linear networks power systems and circuits where one particular where a particular load resistor‚ RL in the circuit is subject to change‚ and recalculation of the circuit

Bernoulli’s theorem i Bernoulli’s theorem‚ in fluid dynamics‚ relation among the pressure‚ velocity‚ and elevation in a moving fluid (liquid or gas)‚ the compressibility and viscosity (internal friction) of which are negligible and the flow of which is steady‚ or laminar. First derived (1738) by the Swiss mathematicianDaniel Bernoulli‚ the theorem states‚ in effect‚ that the total mechanical energy of the flowing fluid‚ comprising the energy associated with fluid pressure‚ the gravitational potential

In mathematics‚ the Pythagorean Theorem — or Pythagoras’ theorem — is a relation in Euclidean geometry among the three sides of a right triangle (right-angled triangle). In terms of areas‚ it states: In any right-angled triangle‚ the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares whose sides are the two legs (the two sides that meet at a right angle). The theorem can be written as an equation relating the lengths
