The cosine is a projection of the complex number exp(−ix) (which is a point on the unit circle in the complex plane) to the real axis on the complex plane. In the following interactive figure, you can drag the point x on the real axis and observe the behaviour of the complex number exp(−ix) and the varying value of cosine(x). | 677.169 | 1 |
Lesson video
In today's lesson, we will be looking at using the sine and the cosine ratio to find the length of missing sides in right angle triangles.
In order for us to do this, you will need a pen, a paper, and you will need a calculator.
So please pause the video, go grab these and when you're ready to make a start, press resume and we can begin.
I would like you to start today's lesson by having a go at this question.
Let's read it together.
Use the cards to create an equation and solve it.
How many solutions can you find? So I'm giving you three cards, number 12, six and an X and I've given you how the equation should look like.
You need to take these cards and place them in different boxes and see how many solutions can you find for X.
You will need about five minutes to complete the task.
So please pause the video and have a go at it.
Resume once you're finished.
Welcome back.
How did you get on with the try this task? Okay, really good.
What were the associations for X? Should we go through them together? Okay, let's do this.
So I started with 12 equal six out of X, and then rearranged the equation where I got X equals six out of 12 and therefore X was a half.
Did you get this as one of your solutions? Really good.
Now, would it have made any difference if I had wrote down six equal 12 out of X? So if I left X in the denominator of the fraction but swapped the numbers.
Really good, it would have, yeah.
And our answer would have been two, really good.
Now the other, so one of the methods is putting X in the denominator.
The other is putting X in the numerator.
So I did 12 equal X out of six and rearranged it and I found that the X equals 72.
Did you get that too? Really good.
And, just to show you the one that I told you about previously, X equal 12 out of six.
If I changed it and then X would have been equal to two.
Okay, would it have been a difference for this one if I swapped one of the numbers whereas if I had six equals X out of 12 select X in the numerator but swapped the numbers down? Really good, it wouldn't have made a difference because if I had six equal X out of 12 and then rearranged it, I would still end up with 12 multiplied by six.
That would give me X and I would still have 72.
Okay, really good job.
Let's move on to our next task.
Okay so as I told you earlier on today, we're going to be looking at using sine and cosine ratios to find the lengths of missing sides in triangles not just when we have 30 degrees or 60 degrees or 45 degrees, but when we have any marked angle.
So let's have a look at this first triangle.
We have a right angle triangle.
The marked angle is 20 degrees and we have been given one of the sides as 10 centimetre and that's the hypotenuse and we have to work out the length of one of the sides and that has been marked for us with that letter a.
So first step is always to label the sides of the triangle according to your marked angle.
So I can start by saying this is the hypotenuse here and this side is the opposite.
Now the second part is I need to ask myself the question, which ratio connects both the hypotenuse and the opposite? Which one relates to both of those two sides? It's the sine ratio, well done.
So I can start by writing sine of theta is equal to the opposite over hypotenuse.
Now, the third step is for us to actually substitute some of the numbers in.
So we know what theta is.
We know what the angle is.
We know it's 20.
We don't know what the opposite is.
We can write it as a because that's what the question tells us, has been marked with the letter a.
We know the length of the hypotenuse and that's 10.
So let's substitute some of the numbers.
So sine 20 is equal to a out of 10.
Now we need to rearrange the formula because we want to find a.
So if I multiply both sides of the equation by 10, that should give me 10 multiplied by sine 20 equal to N.
And now if I grab a calculator and type this into the calculator, I should get an answer.
And that is 3.
4 to one decimal place.
So a is 3.
4 centimetres and I managed to find out the length of one of the missing sides using the sine ratio.
So the first step was? Really good, we mark the sides, we label them.
The second step is? Really good, we identify which ratio we want to use.
Is it sine? Is it cosine? Step three.
We write that ratio down.
So we write sine theta is equal to opposite out of hypotenuse and then, what do we do we do after that? Really good, we substitute the numbers that have been given to us in the equation and then we solve.
Really good, we solve to find that missing lengths.
Let's look at the second one.
Second to try again.
Again, we have the right angle triangle.
One of the angles is 50 degrees, one of the sides is eight centimetres, and one of the sides is given as b.
So first step, we start by labelling.
This is the hypotenuse and this is here, the opposite.
Which ratio connects the opposite to the hypotenuse? Really good, it's sine.
So we write sin theta is equal to opposite over hypotenuse, out of hypotenuse.
It's always like this.
Now, what do we do next? Have a little think.
Really good job, we substitute.
So we say sine of 50 is equal to eight out of b and next what do we do? Have a little think.
Excellent, so we rearrange now.
So we know that b is equal to eight divide by sine 50.
And our last step is to obviously use the calculator, put these numbers in and see what b is.
So b is equal to 10.
4 to one decimal place, centimetres of course.
Okay, now I'm just going to give you a little hint.
If you're using your calculator, be really, really careful with the sine function, okay? So if you are writing eight out of sine 50, you're dividing it.
Either have it as a fraction to make sure that you are dividing, the division is done properly, or make sure that you're including your bracket and closing your brackets properly.
For the first one, that pink one, 10 multiplied by sine 20, when you multiply using your calculator, make sure that you're writing 10 multiplied by and then open brackets to have the sine 20 and then close those brackets.
Do not write sine 20 multiplied by 10 because then you are, if you don't close your brackets properly and use them properly, you will end up with the wrong answer.
Okay, let's have a look at couple more examples.
Okay and our example number three, we have a right angle triangle.
We have one of the side lengths, 19 centimetres, and the other one is a centimetre.
We need to find out the length of that a.
The marked angle is 36 degrees.
Step number one, what do we do? Have a little think.
Say it to the screen.
Excellent job.
We start by labelling the sides of the triangle.
So here I have adjacent and here I have the hypotenuse.
Okay, step two, what do we do? Have a little think.
Excellent.
So we start thinking about what ratio connects those two sides that we have labelled because we didn't label the opposite.
We've not been asked to calculate the opposite and we don't need to use it.
It's not given to us.
So we're not working with the opposite.
So we need to think about the ratio that connects the adjacent to the hypotenuse and that is the cosine ratio, well done.
So we need to write down that.
So we write down cos theta is equal to adjacent over the hypotenuse.
Now, first step, what do we do? Excellent, we need to substitute some of these numbers.
We know what the angle is so we can write now cos of 36 is equal to a out of 19.
And what do we do next? Have a little think.
Say it to the screen.
Really good, we need to multiply both sides of the equation by 19.
So we write 19 multiplied by cos 36 is equal to a and now we use a calculator to find out what a is.
We make sure that we write this properly on the calculator display.
Use brackets if needed.
And therefore, a is equal to 15.
4 centimetres to one decimal place, really good job.
Let's have a look at our last example.
We have another triangle.
Step one, what do we do? Really good, excellent.
We start by labelling the sides.
We've got our adjacent in here and we've got the hypotenuse given to us.
We need to find out the hypotenuse, adjacent is given.
Sorry.
Okay, what do we do next? Let's have a little think.
Which ratio connects the adjacent to the hypotenuse? Really good, it's the cosine ratio so we write cos of theta is equal to adjacent divided by hypotenuse and now what do we do next? Say it to the screen.
Good job, we substitute.
So cos of 20 is equal to 5.
5 out of r and let's rearrange this equation.
What do you get if you rearrange it? Have a little think.
Write it down if you need to.
Really good.
So, r is equal to 5.
5 divided by cos 20.
And now, if we use a calculator and put this into the calculator, do you want to have a go at this yourself? Come on, grab your calculator.
You can do it.
Excellent! If you have r is equal to 5.
9 to one decimal place and that is the length of the hypotenuse and this side.
Again, so you always have to start by marking and labelling the sides of the triangle.
Then think about the ratio.
Which one are you using? Sine or cosine depending if you have the opposite and the hypotenuse, you're using sine.
If you have the adjacent and the hypotenuse, you're using cosine.
Write down that ratio and then substitute and solve.
Make sure you're using your calculator properly Okay, I'm just going to advise you here before we move on to the independent task.
If you feel that you need to pause the video at any point to copy these examples, please do so.
And now it's time for you to have a go at the independent task.
Let's read it together.
Calculate the length of each hypotenuse.
Compare your answers and write down what do you notice.
What happened next? Make a prediction.
This is why I want you to do it.
You have a grid there with nine triangles in there.
The first triangle has an angle marked with 15 degrees.
One of the side lengths is given as five centimetres and you need to find a.
I want you to do that and then it's up to you.
You decide whether you want to go across the row or down the column to find a in the next to triangle.
While you're doing, I want some mathematical thinking about what do I think is going to happen next? Do I think a is going to be bigger? Is it going to be smaller? And why? How is this triangle connected to the previous one? And how is this one connected to the next one? So I want you to be asking yourself all of those questions while you are doing this task on your own, okay? You will need to use a calculator.
It will make this task a lot easier for you.
If you're feeling super confident about this, please pause the video now and have a go at it.
If not, I will be giving you a hint in three, in two, in one.
Okay, if you need a hint, this is my hint.
If you look at the first triangle, we'll always start by labelling the sides, really good.
So this here is hypotenuse and this here is the opposite, really good.
Now, which ratio connects the opposite to the hypotenuse? It's, the sine ratio so I know I'm going to use sine.
So sine 15 is equal to the opposite which is five out of a.
Now let's rearrange.
Use a calculator and you'll be able to find what a is.
Now with this hint, you should be able to make a start on your own.
Please pause the video and complete the independent task.
This should take you about 15 minutes to complete.
Resume the video once you're finished.
Off you go.
Welcome back.
How did you get on with this task? Did you manage to find the hypotenuse for the nine triangles that I gave you? Really good.
What did you notice about the nine triangles? Excellent.
So in all the nine triangles, the hypotenuse was missing.
All of them required you to use the sine ratio because in each triangle here, I gave you the angle, the marked angle and I gave you the opposite side and I asked you to find the hypotenuse so that means we have to use the sine ratio.
Anything else? Really good.
If you've noticed that for the second column, we didn't even need to use a calculator.
We should have been able to look at it and say, okay I have a 90, I have a right angle triangle, I have a 30 degree angle.
Therefore the hypotenuse must be double the opposite.
So for the first one in the middle column, we knew that the a is 10 and the one underneath it, a is 12, double the six.
And the last one, a is 14 centimetres, double the seven.
Really good.
What did you notice in each column? What was happening as I went down each column? Okay, really good.
In each column, my answers were getting bigger.
The reason for this is that the opposite was getting bigger.
I was keeping the angle the same but the opposite side was getting bigger.
And if the opposite side gets bigger, then the hypotenuse would obviously get bigger to maintain that ratio between the opposite and the hypotenuse, really good.
What about in each role? What was happening? Excellent job.
So in each role, the hypotenuse was getting shorter.
And why do you think this was happening? Really good.
So, in each row the angle was getting bigger and if the angle was getting bigger then that ratio is getting obviously bigger.
So the opposite divided by the hypotenuse is bigger.
Now to get a bigger opposite divided by the hypotenuse, we have to divide by a smaller number then.
So we end up dividing by a smaller hypotenuse.
So the hypotenuse gets a bit smaller.
If you managed to find the hypotenuse in all those sides and if you managed to write some sentences about the observations across the rows and down the columns, then you should be super proud of yourself, well done.
And for the explore task for today's lesson, you have five statements.
I want you to read each statement carefully.
I want you to decide if these statements are sometimes true, never true or always true.
You would find it really, really helpful to refer back to the table from the independent task with the nine triangles because some of the statements here describe some patterns that you had in the table.
So please do refer back to it.
If you find it helpful, get a calculator, do some calculation, put in some numbers and test each statement to see whether it always works or it doesn't.
It's time for you now to have a go at the explore task.
Please pause the video and complete it.
Resume once you're finished.
Welcome back.
How did he get on with this task? Did you find it helpful to go back to that table? Really good, let's mark this together.
The first statement, the hypotenuse is longer than the opposite.
What did you write down? Really good, it's always true.
The hypotenuse is the longest side in a right angle triangle so it's always true.
Second one, the opposite divided by the hypotenuse is equal to one.
What did you write down? Was a tricky one, wasn't it? Yeah, for this one we're going to write down sometimes because if the marked angle is 90, so if we are thinking about 90 degree, then the opposite divided by the hypotenuse can be one.
And the reason for that is that sine 90 is equal to one.
You can check that by grabbing your calculator and type sine 90 equal.
You'll get one.
If it's one, it means that the opposite divided by the hypotenuse must be one.
If you would like to find out more information about this particular statement, you can research sine of 90 and sine of zero and there will be lots of interesting facts and videos that you can find on the internet.
Next one, increasing the angle decreases the length of the hypotenuse.
We've just done that in the table and we know that that's always true.
Next one, increasing the length of the opposite increases the length of the hypotenuse.
Again, this was one of the patterns that we observed in our table when we increased the length of the opposite side what was happening and the hypotenuse was increasing to maintain that ratio.
And next one, the opposite divided by the hypotenuse is less than one.
Okay, and this is also always true.
The opposite divided by the hypotenuse is always less than one.
If we have the hypotenuse is always bigger than the opposite.
So if we imagine that the opposite is X, then the hypotenuse is going to be X plus something even if that thing is very, very small number, okay? And that would give us less than one.
Again, unless we are talking about sine 90.
This brings us to the end of today's lesson.
You have done some fantastic learning and you should be super proud of yourself. | 677.169 | 1 |

Perimeter in the Real World
Overview
Students will take photos of polygons in the real world, find their perimeter, and present their photos and findings in an Adobe Spark creation.
Summary
Students will find the perimeter of the real world polygons depicted in their original photos. Can be done individually or in small groups. Anticipate multiple 30 minute sessions.
Background for Teachers
To teach this lesson, you will need an understanding of taking and editing digital photos, how to use Adobe Spark, and how to find perimeter of polygons.
Pixlr.com, or the Pixlr app, is a versitle tool for the photo editing portion of this lesson as it can be accessed using any device (phone, tablet, computer) that has internet. Touchscreen devices allow for less accuracy as all drawing must be done by touch instead of tools that make crisp lines and text. Examples in this lesson were made on a Mac with the ability to use the draw lines and text boxes tools. Adjust expectations for touchscreen drawings accordingly.
If you have access to Macs, the photos can be edited in Preview by clicking on the "show markup toolbar" on the right side of the header by the search bar and using the "shapes" and "text box" tools.
If you lack photo editing technology, see section Strategies for Diverse Learners for other options.

Intro to Adobe Spark
Student Prior Knowledge
Prior to this lesson, students will need to have an understanding of how to find the perimeter of polygons. They will also need to have a basic knowledge of taking digital photos, editing to include lines and text in a simple photo editor, and using Adobe Spark for presentations.
Student Learning Intentions & Success Criteria
Learning Intentions:
Students will be able to demonstrate understanding of polygons and perimeter.
Success Criteria:
Students will present original photographs of polygons and show how they found the perimeter in an Adobe Spark creation.
Instructional Procedures
Perimeter in the Real World:
1. Students will use a camera or device with photo capabilities to take a picture of a polygon (square, rectangle, triangle, etc) in the real world. Encourage creativity in finding polygons in unusual places. Example: a stop sign is an obvious octogon but if you look closely you will see that a bicycle has multiple triangles and a fence has many rectangles.
2. Explain to students that by taking their own photos, they will be the author and have full copyright. By using photos from others, the internet, etc. they will be subject to copyright laws, which often include how they are able to be used and if they are allowed to be edited. For this project we will be editing photos so using original photos will prevent any worry about copyright issues. Learning to take and use original photos is a good thing to practice.
3. Each student should find and take photos of at least 3 polygons. Photos should be crisp, not blurry. Zoom in on the polygon. Example: if you use a bike for an example of triangles, take a picture of the frame or wheel where the triangle is located instead of the whole bike.
4. If using a standard digital camera, download photos onto the device to be used for their photo editing and project.
Photo editing:
1. Students will need to open their photo in a photo editor like Pixlr. Pixlr is a good option as it can be accessed from any device with internet. (See Strategies for Diverse Learners section for non-digital option)
2. Have students use the drawing tools to outline the polygon in their photo that they will be finding the perimeter of. The ability to draw lines is found under the shapes section in the drawing tools when accessing Pixlr on a computer. On a touchscreen device like a tablet or smartphone, the draw tool is named Paint.
3. Measure each side of the polygon using a ruler. Student may zoom in on the polygon to measure it but make sure to keep the same zoom level while measuring each side of the polygon. Measurements can be made in inches or centimeters and rounded to the nearest half unit.
4. Using the text box or drawing tool, students will label each side of the polygon with the measurement found in step 3. Make sure to include units measured in (inches or centimeters).
5. Save the photo with the polygon perimeter outlined and sides labeled.
6. Repeat steps 1-5 with each photo.
Final Project:
1. Open Adobe Spark on any device. Students may choose to make their project as a photo collage, presentation, or slide show. Examples of each provided.
2. Once project type has been chosen, students will follow the format for their specific project adding a title, their name, and their edited photos with the polygons outlined and labeled. At least 3 photos required.
3. On or near each photo needs to be text showing the solved equation for the perimeter of the polygon pictured.
4. When complete, save project and share link with the teacher.
Strategies for Diverse Learners
Photos may be printed in order for students to complete tracing of the polygon and labeling of measurements, especially if student knowledge of photo editing would be a barrier to completion of the project. Photos can then be taken of the edited paper photo to include in the Adobe Spark creation.
Project can be completed in pairs or small groups for those who need extra scaffolding.
Ideas for students who need additional challenge: include more photos than the base requirement, do a voice overlay on the project explaining the perimeter of the polygon found in each photo, give accurate true-to-life size measurements for the polygons
Assessment Plan
Students will complete an Adobe Spark creation using at least 3 of their original photos of polygons in the world. Polygons in photos are identified and measurements labeled. Equations showing perimeter of the polygon included for each photo. | 677.169 | 1 |
This is pretty basic stuff here, the C is the chord length, the straight distance from the start and end of an arc/curve. The A is the arc distance, the distance along the curved line of a radius. The PC is the point of curvature and the R is the radius point of the circle.
@chris-bouffard I kind of assumed that, but since a chord is a straight line, why bother calling it a cord if the cord is the property line?
Also, I measured the arc length at the corner and it was about 44′, not 28′, so that didn;t make sense.
My goal was to mark the corners myself (obviously I'm not a surveyor) but the only way I can see that happening since there's no reference point on the plan, is to use a metal detector to see if there are pins. Do you think it's possible they set pins back in 1940? This is Warwick, RI.
You should note that not all of the boundaries are straight lines. I do not see enough information on the small part of the plat you have provided to allow me to calculate the true location of all corners. I always do this first, then go out and hope to find one or two or more existing monuments to tell me how to rotate the rest of my drawing to continue my search.
Truthfully, you need a licensed Rhode Island land surveyor to help you out. I'm not sure that we have one of those license holders actively participating on this site, despite have several thousand surveyors among our group. Check with your County offices or City offices to learn the contact information for more than one licensed land surveyor.
If you are measuring an arc from tangent to tangent; then you aren't measuring the arc; you are measuring the chord.
Find the radius point; use that to set stakes along the arc, and wrap the tape around those. It won't be perfect (no measurement, with conventional means is) but it will be close; as long as you start and stop at the right points.
You can always hire a surveyor; then you have someone else to blame, when it's wrongDo you have the means to mathematically compute all of the elements to your boundary based on the 1940 plat data to the extent that you can determine whether the geometry closes on itself? Locating an arc on its own without knowing where exactly it begins and ends in relation to the rest of the boundary is something of an exercise in futilityAnd that's why you got 44′ instead of 28.30…
Locating an arc on its own without knowing where exactly it begins and ends in relation to the rest of the boundary is something of an exercise in futility.
I feel for you; I had a buddy looking to buy a piece of property in Kentucky. He wanted to get it surveyed, but no one wanted to talk to him until he started waiving money under their nose; and then they were still 6 months outWhat others are getting at is that to "visually decide" where the arc starts you would need to know where your boundary is, but you don't seem to know that. Without a monument the point that one arc changes to another ark isn't visible.
I did a little high school and QCOGO exercise starting at the lower right corner and coming at the curve in the upper left from each direction using the plat angles, distances and assuming the arc on the left line was tangent at the PC also and also using the plat CL Rad – 25 ft. to compute the delta for the placement of the 75.32 ft chord. This leaves a gap chord of the small curve of 26 ft. A curve with a chord of 26 ft and a platted arc of 28.30 calculates to a 20 ft. radius. It is a non tangent curve but not enough to make it look terrible. We don't Use the GB abbreviation where I work. Granite Bound? Block? Grey Boulder? | 677.169 | 1 |

Introduction to the Basic Concepts of Geometry
To begin the study of geometry, it is necessary to know the most basic concept of geometry. However, they cannot be defined. Fortunately, we have innate ideas about these concepts.
Surprisingly, there are three undefined terms of geometry. These three things are called undefined terms because in geometry they do not require a formal definition. They serve as the cornerstones for establishing other terms and theorems. These words themselves are so basic that they are considered true without formally defining them.
Point, Line, and Plane
The point, line, and plane are basic geometrical ideas and are not defined. They are considered "primitive concepts" and are the basis of Geometry. We will consider space as a set of points and then, we will be able to give an idea of what a point, line, and plane are:
A point is the smallest object in space, it has no dimension (neither length nor width).
Straight is a line that "does not bend". It has one dimension (it has length, but no width).
The surface on which points and lines can be drawn is called a plane. It is two-dimensional (length and width).
Collinear and Non-Collinear Points
Points that are on the same straight line are referred to as collinear points. These kinds of lines have two points in common. They must lie on the same straight line, even if they don't have to be coplanar.
Non-collinear points are three or more points that do not all lie on the same straight line. They are considered non-collinear points if any one of the points among them is not on the same line.
Types of Straight Lines According to the Position Between them
1. Parallel lines are in the same plane and maintain a certain distance from each other, but they never cross or touch at any point.
An example of parallel lines would be train tracks, even though they seem to touch in the distance. It is because of that feeling that the train tracks are getting closer, but it is not true, besides, infinity is not a point, so saying that they touch at infinity is a curious way of saying that they never touch.
Parallel Lines
2.Intersecting lines intersect at a point. When cut, they divide the plane into 4 regions, that is why we say that they form 4 angles. They have one point in common.
Intersecting Lines
3. Perpendicular lines are a particular case of intersecting lines, in addition to intersecting at a point and forming four right angles (angle of 90 degrees).
Perpendicular Lines
Solved Examples
Q 1. Find the correct types of lines from the figure given below.
Perpendicular, Parallel and Intersecting Lines
Sol: (a) A pair of parallel lines.
(b) A pair of intersecting or non-parallel lines.
(c) An illustration of perpendicular lines.
Q 2. Identify the collinear points and non-collinear points in the figure given below.
Collinear and Non-collinear Points
Sol: Collinear points are A, B, and C as they all lie on the same straight line. Points D and E are not collinear because they do not lie on the same line.
Q 3. Define parallel lines.
Ans: Parallel lines are coplanar lines. They do not intersect at any point. Although they seem to be intersecting at infinity it is only a curious way to say that they do not intersect at any point.
Q 4. What is a plane in geometry?
Ans: A plane is a flat, two-dimensional surface that consists of all the points that form a straight line by joining each other.
Q 5. Define a straight line and what are coplanar points?
Ans: A straight line is formed by joining two points on a plane, it has length but no width. Coplanar points are the points that lie on the same plane.
Practice Questions
Q 1 Name the undefined terms of geometry.
Ans: Point, Line, Plane
Q 2 Choose the correct statement.
(a) A point has length, breadth, and width
(b) Collinear points do not lie on the same row
(c) A point is represented by a dot.
Ans: (c).
Q 3 Differentiate between parallel lines and intersecting lines.
Ans: Parallel lines do not intersect and intersecting lines intersect at certain points and have one point in common.
Q 4 Why do we say that parallel lines meet at infinity?
Ans: They only seem to meet, in reality, they do not.
Q 5 Define coplanar points and collinear points.
Ans: Coplanar points are those which lie on the same plane whereas collinear points lie on the same line and have two points in common.
Summary
We have learned the three undefined terms of geometry. Undefined terms are those terms that do not require a formal definition. The three terms are point, line, and plane. A point is just a point and is labeled with a capital letter. An endlessly long, straight mark is known as a line and is labeled with two capital letters that represent two points on the line. A plane is a flat surface that never ends in any direction and is labeled with a capital letter along with the word "plane."
FAQs on Point, Line, and Plane - The Three Undefined Terms in Geometry
1. What are the undefined terms of plane geometry?
In geometry, formal definitions are formed using other defined words or terms. There are, however, three words in geometry that are not formally defined. These words are point, line, and plane, and are referred to as the "three undefined terms of geometry".
2. How many types of lines are there? What is a real-world example of a line?
A geometric figure that can travel in both directions is a line. There are infinitely many points that make up a line. It has no beginning and no end and is one-dimensional. There are two types of lines: straight and curved. Parallel, intersecting, and perpendicular lines are further types of lines.
A pencil, a baseball bat, and other everyday objects are examples of line segments.
3. Why is the study of point, plane, and line important?
Being the basic concepts of geometry, their study is crucial to understanding most concepts of geometry. These three are the starting place of geometry. Their not-so-clear definition gives the proper basics for most of the official definitions in geometry. | 677.169 | 1 |
Curve is a 1-dimensional primitive. Curves are continuous, connected, and have a measurable
length in terms of the coordinate system.
A curve is composed of one or more curve segments. Each curve segment within a curve may be
defined using a different interpolation method. The curve segments are connected to one another,
with the end point of each segment except the last being the start point of the next segment in
the segment list. | 677.169 | 1 |

Secant Line
Definition
A secant line is a straight line that intersects a curve at two points. It represents the average rate of change between those two points on the curve.
Analogy
Imagine you are driving from point A to point B, and you want to know your average speed during the journey. The secant line would be like drawing a straight line connecting your starting point and ending point, representing your average speed over that distance.
Related terms
Tangent Line: A tangent line is a straight line that touches a curve at only one point. It represents the instantaneous rate of change or slope of the curve at that specific point.
Slope: Slope refers to how steep or flat a line is. In terms of secant lines, it represents the ratio of vertical change (rise) to horizontal change (run) between two points on a curve.
Average Rate of Change: Average rate of change measures how much one quantity changes on average compared to another quantity over an interval. In relation to secant lines, it represents the slope or rate of change between two points on a curve. | 677.169 | 1 |
Concurrent Lines
Three or more lines in a plane passing through the same point are concurrent lines. Whenever two nonparallel lines meet each other they form a point of intersection. When a third line also passes through the point of intersection made by the first two lines then these three lines are said to be concurrent lines. The point of intersection of all these lines is called the 'Point of Concurrency'. For example, we can see that three altitudes that are drawn on a triangle intersect at a point, which is called 'Orthocenter'. It is to be noted that only nonparallel lines have a point of concurrence since they extend indefinitely and meet at a point.
Concurrent Lines Definition
Concurrent lines are defined as the set of lines that intersect at a common point. Three or more lines need to intersect at a point to qualify as concurrent lines. Only lines can be concurrent, rays and line segments can not be concurrent since they do not necessarily meet at a point all the time. There can be more than two lines that pass through a point. A few examples are the diameters of a circle are concurrent at the center of the circle. In quadrilaterals, the line segments joining midpoints of opposite sides, and the diagonals are concurrent.
How to Find If Lines are Concurrent?
To find if three lines are concurrent or not, there are two methods. Let us discuss both of them.
To conclude if the above three lines are concurrent, the following condition shown below as a determinant should be evaluated to 0.
One other method to check if the lines intersect each other is as follows.
Method 2:
To check if three lines are concurrent, we first find the point of intersection of two lines and then check to see if the third line passes through the intersection point. This will ensure that all three lines are concurrent. Let us understand this better with an example. The equations of any three lines are as follows.
4x - 2y - 4 = 0 ----- (1)
y = x + 2 ----- (2)
2x + 3y = 26 ----- (3)
Step 1: To find the point of intersection of line 1 and line 2, solve the equations (1) and (2) by substitution method.
Substituting the value of 'y' from equation (2) in equation (1) we get,
Step 2: Substitute the point of intersection of the first two lines in the equation of the third line.
Equation of the third line is 2x + 3y = 26 ----- (3)
Substituting the values of (4,6) in equation (3), we get,
2(4) + 3(6) = 26
8 + 18 = 26
26 = 26
Therefore, the point of intersection goes right with the third line equation, which means the three lines intersect each other and are concurrent lines.
Concurrent Lines of a Triangle
A triangle is a two-dimensional shape that has 3 sides and 3 angles. Concurrent lines can be seen inside triangles when some special type of line segments are drawn inside them. Be it any type of triangle, we can locate four different points of concurrence. They are,
Incenter: The point of intersection of three angular bisectors inside a triangle is called the incenter of a triangle. Circumcenter: The point of intersection of three perpendicular bisectors inside a triangle is called the circumcenter of a triangle. Centroid: The point of intersection of three medians of a triangle is called the centroid of a triangle Orthocenter: The point of intersection of three altitudes of a triangle is called the orthocenter of a triangle.
Practice Questions on Concurrent Lines
FAQs on Concurrent Lines
What are Concurrent Lines?
Concurrent lines are the lines that have a common point of intersection. Only lines intersect each other to form concurrent lines as they extend indefinitely and therefore meet at a point.
Are Parallel Lines Concurrent?
No parallel lines can not be concurrent lines, because they never meet at any point. Even when parallel lines are extended indefinitely they can not be concurrent lines, since they will not have a common point at which they intersect.
How Do You Know If a Line is Concurrent?
There should be at least three lines to define a set of concurrent lines. If two lines intersect they meet at a point. If a third line also passes through this intersection point then we can say that the three lines are concurrent.
What is the Difference Between Intersecting Lines and Concurrent Lines?
Three lines meet at a point to form concurrent lines. The meeting point is called the 'point of concurrence'. When two lines meet at a point, they are called intersecting lines. The meeting point of these two lines is called the 'point of intersection'.
If More Than 3 Lines Intersect at a Point Can They be Called Concurrent Lines?
Yes, more than three lines intersecting at a point can also be called concurrent lines since they all share a common point of intersection.
What are the Concurrent Lines of a Triangle?
There are 4 concurrent lines for a triangle. They are Incenter, circumcenter, centroid, and orthocenter. They are the points of intersection formed when the 3 angle bisectors, 3 perpendicular bisectors, 3 medians, and 3 altitudes of a triangle concur at a point respectively.
Q1: The angle bisectors of a triangle are _____ lines.
Q2: How many points will a line intersect at if it is a transversal to 2 lines?

Use the 3-4-5 Rule to Square a Perfect Corner
For construction purposes, in lieu of a framing square tool to make a corner square, use your tape measure and a bit of geometry to achieve a perfectly square corner every time.
In a classic example of classroom mathematics meets real-world application, the Pythagorean theorem can be used when building a shed or any structure that requires exact corners. The Pythagorean theorem states that the square of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. This is shown as A squared + B squared = C squared and is known as the 3-4-5 rule in construction.
As shown in the video above, use your tape measure to measure and mark one board at 3 feet and the other board at 4 feet and then place a board directly across both marks. The third board should equal 5 feet and give you an square corner. Works | 677.169 | 1 |

Multiplication of coordinates by a scale factor given the origin as the center.
Dilation in the Coordinate Plane
Two figures are similar if they are the same shape but not necessarily the same size. One way to create similar figures is by dilating. A dilation makes a figure larger or smaller such that the new image has the same shape as the original.
Dilation: An enlargement or reduction of a figure that preserves shape but not size. All dilations are similar to the original figure.
Dilations have a center and a scale factor. The center is the point of reference for the dilation and the scale factor tells us how much the figure stretches or shrinks. A scale factor is labeled \(k\). Only positive scale factors, \(k\), will be considered in this text.
If the dilated image is smaller than the original, then \(0<k<1\).
If the dilated image is larger than the original, then \(k>1\).
To dilate something in the coordinate plane, multiply each coordinate by the scale factor. This is called mapping. For any dilation the mapping will be \((x,y)\rightarrow (kx,ky)\). In this text, the center of dilation will always be the origin.
What if you were given the coordinates of a figure and were asked to dilate that figure by a scale factor of 2? How could you find the coordinates of the dilated figure?
For Examples 1 and 2, use the following instructions:
Given A and the scale factor, determine the coordinates of the dilated point, \(A′\). You may assume the center of dilation is the origin. Remember that the mapping will be \((x, y)\rightarrow (kx, ky)\).
Example \(\PageIndex{1}\)
\(A(−4,6), k=2\)
Solution
\(A′(−8,12)\)
Example \(\PageIndex{2}\)
\(A(9,−13), k=\dfrac{1}{2}\)
Solution
\(A′(4.5,−6.5)\)
Example \(\PageIndex{3}\)
Quadrilateral EFGH\) has vertices \(E(−4,−2)\), \(F(1,4)\), \(G(6,2)\) and \(H(0,−4)\). Draw the dilation with a scale factor of 1.5.
Figure \(\PageIndex{1}\)
Solution
Remember that to dilate something in the coordinate plane, multiply each coordinate by the scale factor.
For this dilation, the mapping will be \((x,y)\rightarrow (1.5x, 1.5y) .
In the graph above, the blue quadrilateral is the original and the red image is the dilation.
Example \(\PageIndex{4}\)
Determine the coordinates of \(\Delta ABC\) and \(\Delta A′B′C′\) and find the scale factor.
Figure \(\PageIndex{2}\)
Solution
The coordinates of the vertices of \(\Delta ABC\) are \(A(2,1)\), B(5,1)\) and C(3,6)\). The coordinates of the vertices of \(\Delta A′B′C′\) are A′(6,3)\), \(B′(15,3)\) and C′(9,18)\). Each of the corresponding coordinates are three times the original, so \(k=3\).
Example \(\PageIndex{5}\)
Show that dilations preserve shape by using the distance formula. Find the lengths of the sides of both triangles in Example B | 677.169 | 1 |
How do Gann angles relate to geometric principles?
How do Gann angles relate to geometric principles? I really want to get Web Site into the area of Gann angles (which are great examples of trig functions ), i.e. of determining the shape of various geometric figures from the knowledge of the Gann angle of the tangent of the acute angle made by the tangent and normal. I can't find my old graphs (i.e. the ones on my smartphone on the move)-they're either the ones i don't have-or the ones i lost. If i get a chance to look at them, could someone tell me how do Gann angles, determined using 'The theorem of the sin(sin/cos)' relate to angles made with Pythagoras, cosine, sine? First, thanks for the answers. I am interested in both geometric principles and the various definitions of Gann angles. I tried to find my graph from yesterday-i looked yesterday while researching – but had no luck. If it is still on my phone, could someone tell me how to retrieve it? Are there no direct rules to the various Gann angles? Do they follow the same geometric rules for any reason? How do they relate to powers of trig functions? I am only a freshmen math major in a community college. I am great with math, so i will try to give it my best shot. But i lack visual aids to relate Gann angles. I tried to draw the Gans, and i was able to draw their definitions.
Financial Timing
But have no where to find "how" they relate to given triangles. Are there no obvious rules in this respect? How low can i go before I get a complete layman vs complete math major? Hi, you can avoid the problem of having a notepad etc for just looking up facts like that. There is a few pages in the front of the old Algebra textbook by Cox where the problems are for the book are solved then for each problem you are given an example to check the steps. The old textbooks were the best the were much bigger and better than doing long term problems. As for the Gann angles they were used a lot in old books so there certainly must be some relation to angles for they do only work for angles not on the whole circle So for ease of reading some were numbered while others didn't but the numbers were generally in the 20s. In fact the simplest Gans called a Gans with the exaple of a right triangle and the hypotenuse is: Mean of that I guess is $\frac{\pi}{3}$ As for the definitions you just show what's there in the definitions or how Gans works in your cases and then work the trigonometry problems. As if you found out how Gans relate to given triangle you go in the same way. Add two sides of given three knowing the angles from there. Now to hard to understand there are trig functions on the tangent they also help. Gains is almost never used in practice, the reason is not worth thinking about. If you want to be a professional mathematician, use B.M. Stewart "A Handbook of Mathematical Functions" with its built-in tables of values is recommended.
Square of Twelve
I personally think Gann is great for math training but useless for use. @trout1, thanks for the help. To be clear, I did say it was no use -at least for use in a high school math class. That is why i am interested in geometric principles: i learned about trig functions purely for use, and never found any real use besides multiplying or adding numbers. I was always exposed to power of trig tho, and managed to get any question i asked to a desired answer. I found it a lot more enjoyable to go into the class knowing the reasons behind trig functions. The problem with using Gann angles is two fold. First withHow do Gann angles relate to great post to readofficial source In my previous work, I have demonstrated that gravitational harmonics, for the past 6000 years, vary with time, unlike climatic harmonics, if I change the values of the harmonics of frequencies RK, I can affect the orbital patterns that would exist. Once I have a good working knowledge of solar harmonics and how they interact with the Gann angles and Newton's Rings, then I can expect to have an accurate map of the past, based on solar and cosmic rays, the cycles can tell us find out here now what intervals Neptune would exist in the skies. If you're interested in that, I wrote a book based on this, "Gann and Saturn", in which I attempt to explain the theory in full, and also discuss the application of this knowledge, I also recorded a youtube series based on it, and I've written articles for newspapers, and posted on the world wide web. One thing that I've been speaking about for years is that I've tried to put each major orbit in terms of their nature. Many people do too but some, like Edward Norton, have mistaken my orbital patterns for actual planets, in effect giving them names. My goal is to show you how, based upon research upon recorded planetary positions of the past, the orbits of the major planets are explained, not only in exact terms but also in accurate historical proportion via harmonic tables.

The gann angle, , was described in one of our other papers under the title "Fun with gann angles." However, the paper wasn't on the right track, and a generalization—a gant angle— should follow: . So what are the relations between the gant angle, the triangle area, the rectangle perimeter, and the rectangle area? Is there some interesting and intuitive pattern in how they relate? The basic statement of the rest of this section is just the following: , , and . In this section, we review that special case of a right triangle and its interior angles. ## 3.1 Appealing to Area What are the relations between , , and ? In order to work out the area of the triangle, we can take each side of the triangle. This is perfectly reasonable, and in general in calculus we often need to work with area. The general rule of area works in relation to interior angles in the following way: , where and are angles with sides , , and . There are cases where this doesn't work, so we need some formula for relating , , and .
Financial Geometry
There is a result that should provide the formulae that we can use, but we have to explain some of the more general notions that underlie it. Surprisingly, we need to introduce the idea of a circumcircle and a central angle. We can think of the center of a circle as being infinitely far away and always just as it is right now. We can draw a circle around what is "now," remembering "now" as being what is near that current point.

A triangle may or may not be a regular polygon. Let's look into things.
First, a triangle is a polygon. All triangles are polygons. To be a regular polygon, the polygon must have equal sides. If the triangle has sides of equal length, then that triangle is an equilateral triangle and a regular polygon. If the triangle doesn't have sides of equal length, then it isn't a regular polygon. But in any case, the triangle is a polygon. | 677.169 | 1 |

6. A BROKEN LINE is one made up of straight lines, not lying in the same direction.
7. A CURVE LINE is one which

9. A PLANE is a surface, such, that if any two of its points be joined by a straight line, such line will be wholly in the surface.
10. Every surface, which is not a plane surface, or composed of plane surfaces, is a curved surface.
11. A SOLID, or BODY is that which has length, breadth, and thickness: it therefore combines the three dimensions of extension.
12. A plane ANGLE is the portion of a plane included between two straight lines meeting at a common point. The two straight lines are called the sides of the angle, and the common point of intersection, the vertex.
Thus, the part of the plane includ

angle: AB and AC are its sides, and A its vertex.
An angle is sometimes designated A4

14. An ACUTE ANGLE is an angle ess than a right angle.
15. An OBTUSE ANGLE is an angle greater than a right angle.
16. Two straight lines are said to be parallel, when being situated in the same plane, they cannot meet, how far soever, either way, both of them be produced.

20. An EQUILATERAL polygon is one which has all its sides equal; an equiangular polygon, is one which has all its angles equal.
21. Two polygons are equilateral, or mutually equilateral when they have their sides equal each to each, and placed in the same order: that is to say, when following their bounding lines in the same direction, the first side of the one is equal to the first side of the other, the second to the second, the third to the third, and so on.
22. Two polygons are equiangular, or mutually equiangu lar, when every angle of the one is equal to a correspond. ing angle of the other, each to each.
23. Triangles are divided into classes with reference both to their sides and angles.
1. An equilateral triangle is one
which has its three sides equal.
2. An isosceles triangle is one which has two of its sides equal.
3. A scalene triangle is one which has its three sides unequal.

The vector subtraction of two vectors a and b is represented by a – b. For this, we can use the triangle law. | 677.169 | 1 |
Why is SSA not a valid method for proving that triangles are congruent?
Hint:
Sides could be located in different parts of triangles.
The correct answer is: the triangles must be of the same length, shape and size
Complete step by step solution: SSA is not possible since the sides could be located in two different parts of the triangles and not the corresponding sides of two triangles. There is chance that the size and shape would be different for both triangles and for triangles to be congruent, the triangles must be of the same length, shape and size | 677.169 | 1 |
A Guide to the Basics of Geometry
Math is a vast and diverse field, and it has a massive scope in our life such as science, engineering, finance, medicine, and so on. Math is an important subject, and we are all surrounded by the world of Math. Maths is a topic of numbers, shapes, measurements, data handling, etc. The concepts and the theories explained in Math help solve different types of academic problems and real-life problems. Learning Math helps to improve our logical thinking and problem-solving skills. The various branches of Math, such as arithmetic, geometry, trigonometry, algebra, etc., lead to the technological development of our country. Let's discuss one of the branches called "Geometry" and its basics.
Geometry Basics
The term "Geometry" comes from the Greek word "Geometron." It is comprised up of two words, such as "Geo" and "Metron," which means "Earth" and "Measurements." Basic geometry is the study of points, lines such as parallel lines and intersecting lines, angles such as acute angle, obtuse angle and right angle, plane figures, and solid figures.
Point
A point is defined as the location in space. It is generally referred to by dot (.). A point on the surface is expressed in the upper case letter.
Angle
We know that a ray is a set of points that starts at one point (endpoint) and continues infinitely in a single direction. An angle is a measurement among two rays that joins at the common point. The notation to represent the angle is "∠." The three common angles we have learned are acute angle, obtuse angle, and right angle.
Acute Angle: The angle that ranges from 0° to 90°.
Right angle: The angle is equal to 90°.
Obtuse Angle: The angle that lies between 90° and 180°.
The other types of angles that are observed in our Mathematical calculations are straight angle and reflex angle. The angle exactly equal to 180° is called a straight angle, and the angle greater than 180° and less than 360° is called a reflex angle.
Lines
A line is defined as a collection of points that extends infinitely in both directions. The two arrows on both sides of the lines represent that the line extends forever. The part of the line is called the line segment. A line segment has two endpoints, whereas a line has no endpoint. The line that never meets each other even if we extend them on the plane surface is called parallel lines and the distance between the two parallel lines is constant. The line that meets each other after extending them are called intersecting lines, and the point where two lines intersect is called point of intersection. The perpendicular lines are the lines where two lines meet each other at right angles.
Plane Figures
Plane figures are also known as the two-dimensional figures, and it has two dimensions: length and breadth. The 2D figures are also known as flat shapes. Examples of plane figures are square, rectangle, triangle, circle, etc.
Solid Figures
Solid figures, also known as three-dimensional or 3D shapes, have three dimensions: length, breadth, and height. Generally, 3D shapes are taken from the rotation of 2D shapes. Examples of solid figures are cuboid, cube, cylinder, and so on | 677.169 | 1 |

Prove Electric Force on Triangle ABC Lies on Bisector
In summary, the conversation discusses how to prove that the direction of electric force at point A in triangle ABC lies on the bisector of angle BAC. The theory of electric fields and rotation is used to show that this is true for any triangle, not just when AB=AC. The proof is done using polar coordinates and the contribution of charged sections on intervals around the bisector. The conversation also mentions the rules of the forum, reminding users to give their own attempts at solutions and not ask for full solutions.

Consider triangle ABC,the continues charges distribution lies on the side of BC with the linear charge density such as m,prove that the direction of electric force in the point A lies on the bisector of the viewing angle BAC
You can prove that almost without knowing anything about electric field! We only need to know that field is determined by electric charge and that laws of physics are the same in all non-accelerated coordinate systems.
We will use this simple theory:
If we rotate the triangle (around any axis) by an angle alfa then the field will also rotate by the same angle (around the same axis). This can be proved by solving this problem in a rotated coordinate system (by alfa) where the rotated triangle seems the same as original triangle in original system (so the solution is the same). Then we transform the field vector back into original sistem and we find out it has rotated by alfa.
Proof by contadiction:
Let's suppose that the field does not lie on the bisector. If we rotate the triangle around bisector by alfa=180 degrees, then the field will also rotate, resulting in changed direction of the field. However this rotation transforms triangle back into itself! We got a different electric field from the same charge distribution! This is imposible, so the assumption that field does not lie on bisector is wrong.

I think your assumpion is not right.why If we rotate the triangle around bisector by alfa=180 degrees, then rotation transforms riangle back into itself! It is true only for AB=AC!

Sorry, I missread the question. Here is proof for general triangle:
Use polar coordinates, with the bisector for fi=0 axes. It is enough to show, that
sections of charged line on intervals (fi,fi+dfi) and (-fi,-fi-dfi) exactly cancel each other
out (as far as perpendicular component of E is concerned). Since sin(-fi)=sin(fi), it is enough to show that the magnitudes are the same.
Contributions of these sections are:
r^-2*dl (times a constant)
We can prove that both magnitudes of dE are the same by proving
r^-2*dl/dfi=const (independent of fi) (1)
This is easy: if delta is angle between r and BC, then
dl=r*dfi/cos(delta), r=d/cos(delta)
where d is the shortest distance between (infinitely extended) BC line and point A.
If you put dl=dfi*d/cos(delta)^2 and r=d/cos(delta) into equation (1),
you find out the expression is really independent of fi.
Sma: You have posted this question TWICE in a very short period of time
and don't ask for solutions, and also you MUST give attempt to soultion.
Lojzek: never give full solutions
Please read and follow the rules of this forum.
Related to Prove Electric Force on Triangle ABC Lies on Bisector
1. How is the electric force on triangle ABC determined?
The electric force on triangle ABC can be determined by using Coulomb's Law, which states that the force between two point charges is equal to the product of the charges divided by the square of the distance between them.
2. What is the significance of the electric force lying on the bisector of triangle ABC?
The bisector is a line that divides an angle into two equal parts. When the electric force on triangle ABC lies on the bisector, it tells us that the force is acting equally on both sides of the angle, creating a balanced and stable system.
3. How do you prove that the electric force on triangle ABC lies on the bisector?
To prove that the electric force on triangle ABC lies on the bisector, we can use the concept of vector addition. By breaking down the force into its components and using trigonometric functions, we can show that the force is acting equally on both sides of the bisector.
4. Can the electric force on triangle ABC ever not lie on the bisector?
Yes, there are situations where the electric force may not lie on the bisector. This can happen if there are other external forces acting on the system, or if the charges are not evenly distributed on the triangle.
5. What are the real-life applications of understanding the electric force on triangle ABC lying on the bisector?
Understanding the electric force on triangle ABC can be applied in various fields such as engineering, physics, and technology. It can help in designing stable structures, analyzing the behavior of electric fields, and creating efficient electrical systems. | 677.169 | 1 |

Ellipsographs
Circle, Ellipse, Parabola, Hyperbola. These are all names familiar to anyone who has had high school analytic geometry. They are the four conic sections, known to the ancient Greeks. The word section means to cut or divide into sections, so conic sections are cuts, or cross sections of a cone. Though they can arise in any cone, traditionally they are considered as coming from a right circular cone (a cone whose axis is perpendicular to its base). The model pictured in figure 1 is of a wooden right circular cone and shows the conics sections as they arise when the cone is cut by a plane.
Fig 1. Conic Section model showing, from top to bottom, and ellipse, a parabola, hyperbola and circle (base of cone). SI image DOR2013-17883
A circle is formed when a plane cuts the cone parallel to the base or perpendicular to the axis of the cone. The other three conics are formed when the cutting plane is no longer parallel to the base (or perpendicular to the axis). After the circle, the next conic section encountered in school is the ellipse. The word ellipse comes from the Greek elleipsis and means "to fall short". An ellipse is formed when the cutting plane meets the base at an angle less than, or falls short of, the angle formed by the base and the side of the cone. In figure 1 above, notice how the angle the section makes with the base, if it were extended, is more shallow than the angle the side of the cone makes with the base. Thus it "falls short". The cutting plane cuts a complete closed curve which is depicted in the top slice of the model above and in figure 2 below.
Parabola comes from the Greek parabole and means "comparison". A parabola is formed when the cutting plane is inclined to the base at the same angle as the side of the cone (middle cut in figure 1). A parabola does not form a closed curve but a U shape. Finally, the word hyperbola comes from the Greek hyperbole which means to "go beyond" and is formed when the plane cuts the cone at an angle greater than the angle at which the side of the cone meets the base (bottom cut in figure 1). Hyperbolas form very open U or corner shapes. Both a parabola and hyperbola are show in the figure 3 below which shows the middle piece of the conic section model of figure 1.
Fig 3. Section of cone showing a parabola on the back side and a hyperbola on the front side. SI image DOR2013-17887
The conics were known to the ancient Greeks. Arches and bridges have been constructed using ellipses and parabolas since the Romans. But scientific applications of the conics (other than circles) were not discovered until comparatively recently. For example, Galileo (1683) realized that any projectile follows a parabolic path, while Kepler (1609) discovered that all planets follow elliptical paths around the sun, as opposed to perfect circles as believed since antiquity. In fact, all orbital motion under the influence of gravity can be described using one of the four conic sections based on the mass and speed of the body in orbit. Today, the conics are used to describe the motion of myriads of objects from sub-atomic particles to satellites and whole galaxies.
Ellipsographs (also known as elliptographs) are devices used to draw ellipses. Why would you need to draw an ellipse? These curves arise most often in the areas of architectural and engineering drawing as well as in art and graphic design when drawing in perspective. In fact, German artist Albrecht Dürer, known for is precise perspective drawings, invented a compass to draw ellipses in 1540. When drawing plans or blueprints in perspective, a circle when viewed from an angle appears as an ellipse. Many windows, vaulted ceilings, stairs, bridges and arches are elliptical in design and need to be rendered accurately in technical drawings.
An ellipse is an elongated circle with a center C as well as two foci designated by F. The standard equation for an ellipse in Cartesian coordinates is:
where a is the length of the semi-major axis and b is the length of the semi-minor.
Fig 4. Diagram of an ellipse.
The standard description of an ellipse is the set of all points whose distance to the two foci is a constant. In the diagram above, the sum of the distances r1 + r2 is the same for any point on the ellipse. The eccentricity (e) of an ellipse is a number between 0 and 1 that indicates how elongated the curve is. The eccentricity is the ratio of the distance from one focus to the center compared to the length of the semi major axis (e=f/a). For a circle, the foci are at the center and so the ratio is zero (e=0/a=0). Thus a circle is a special case of an ellipse where the two foci have come together. The larger e, the more elongated the ellipse is. If you let e equal 1, your ellipse would end up being a line segment, it would have zero width. An infinite number of different ellipses can be formed by changing the separation between the two foci (which changes how long it is) or by changing the distance r1+ r2 (which changes how wide the ellipse is).Fig 5. Image of drawing an ellipse using string and pins by the author.
There are several mechanical devices that draw an ellipse, but most of them use a method equivalent to this simple string procedure. The simplest ellipsograph used in technical drawing is a template or elliptic curve made of wood or plastic created using a variation on the string method. This type of ellipsograph is static and can only draw one size ellipse but is easy and inexpensive to make. A draftsman may have a set of several sizes of these templates. Item 82.0795.38 is one such elliptic curve and was most likely used in the classroom to draw an ellipse on the chalkboard.
The most common device for drawing ellipses is by using an elliptical compass or elliptical trammel, often referred to as the Trammel of Archimedes. A simple version can be found in handmade toy shops and is often referred to as the "do-nothing machines" or a grinder (fig 5). Animations and directions for building one are readily available on-line.

As the handle is turned, the two small wood blocks slide back and forth in their tracks. As one moves away from the center, the other moves toward the center. The sum of the distance of each block to the handle remains constant and is twice the semi-major axis, a. A pencil attached to the end of the handle would trace an ellipse. The vast majority of ellipsographs produced are based on the same theory. However, other than the simple trammel, there are more elaborate ellipsographs that produce more precise drawings. The Smithsonian National Museum of American History has eight ellipsographs in its collections. Apart from the single elliptic curve mentioned above, there are three simple trammels (objects 1985.0112.227, 304722.14, 1987.0379.02) and four high precision items (objects 315255, 308981, 308910, 314861). Three of the items are patent models. All date from the mid-nineteenth century to the mid-twentieth century.

This elliptic curve was constructed for school use
Description
This elliptic curve was constructed for school use engineering, architectural, and machine drawings, as well as in surveying and mapping. The study of the conic sections has been a part of secondary mathematics education for the better part of the last two centuries.
Various companies in the late 1800s and early 1900s sold geometric solids and surfaces for educational aides. For example, the Illustrated Catalogue of Kindergarten Material, Primary Aids, Maps, Globes and Charts, School Furniture and Blackboards (Boston: J. L. Hammett, 1895-6) offers thirty-six solids and surfaces for sale. These include several prisms, cylinders and cones, polygons, semi-circles, an ellipse and an ellipse that is cut in two perpendicular to the major axis. Since the ellipse in the collection was designed for tracing, it does not indicate the location of the center or foci. The major axis measures 10 in (25.5 cm) while the minor axis measures 7 7/8 in (20.1 cm). This elliptic curve was given to the Museum by Brown University in 1964.As one of the sliders travels toward the center along its track, the other slider travels outward along its track. By placing a pencil in the bracket at the end of the top beam, a complete ellipse can be drawn. The location of the sliders can be adjusted along the top beam by removing the carved pegs securing the sliders. This changes how far each of the sliders can travel along its track and thus changes the eccentricity of the ellipse. The eccentricity is a number between zero and one that describes how far from circular an ellipse is. A circle has eccentricity zero and an ellipse that is so long and thin that it becomes a line segment has eccentricity one.
Trammels are the most common type of ellipsograph and were often made for use in teaching and as children's toys. Videos of trammels in use and even designs for making your own can easily be found on the Internet. This trammel is fairly large---the beam measures 36 cm (14 ¼ in) long while the tracks measure 19 cm (7 ½ in) each. The opening for a writing device is fairly large and has a white residue, so this model may well have been used as a teaching device, possibly held against a blackboard to draw an ellipse using chalk. It has no markings and its maker is unknown, but it was most likely made in the late 19th century. It was a gift of Wesleyan University in Connecticut in 1984.This device was used by professionals who needed to draw ellipses in engineering drawings or blueprints. It is made of nickel-plated brass and moves very smoothly. Small points on the underside of the device hold it securely to the drawing surface. A reversible writing tip or pencil-lead holder screws onto the adjustable bracket at the end of the top beam. The two screws on each slider allow them to be positioned along the top beam. As the top beam is rotated, the sliders move in opposite directions along their tracks--as one moves inward, the other moves outward--and an ellipse is drawn on the writing surface. The closer the sliders are to each other on the beam, the more circular the ellipse becomes, and the eccentricity of the ellipse approaches zero
This model was manufactured (or imported) in approximately 1930 by the Keuffel and Esser Company of New York. It is marked "Keuffel & Esser Co N.Y. Switzerland." This device first appears as item 1181 in their 1921 catalogue, which states that "This instrument draws ellipses of any shape, from 6 inches to 18 inches major axis, with great accuracy." It remains available into the 1950s. Two other ellipsographs (items 1178 and 1180) were available prior to this item being offered, but appear to have no longer been available once this item was added to the listing. The "Switzerland" mark may indicate that this device was imported for sale by K&E. The top beam is 22 cm (8 1/2 in) long and can be extended an additional 2.5 cm (1 in). The two tracks are 10 cm (3 7/8 in) long.
K&E, was a drafting instruments and supply company that was founded in New York City in 1867 by Wilhelm J. D. Keuffel (1838--1908) and Herman Esser (1845--1908), immigrants from Prussia (what is now far northeastern Germany). Over time the company grew, expanding its products to include surveying instruments and a wide variety of drafting devices, and became well known for its slide rules. In 1987 the company was bought by AZON Corporation. This device was a gift of Brown University in 1973.
Description The U.S. Army purchased several examples of this device for use in surveying and mapping.
The Omicron Ellipsograph is not an elliptic trammel like many of the other ellipsographs in the Smithsonian's collections. This ellipsograph is a linkage, in particular a Stephenson type III linkage. A linkage is a mechanical device made of rigid bars connected by hinges or pivot points that move in such a way as to produce smooth mathematical curves. The most common types of linkages are used to draw true straight lines. See the Kinematic Models in the Smithsonian's online collections for examples of other linkages.
In this ellipsograph, a metal bar is attached to two sliding brackets. One is on the stationary bar that runs horizontally across the device and is the major axis of the ellipse. The other sliding bracket is attached to a curved arm. A pencil is inserted through the hole at the top end of the bar. As the pencil is moved, the linkage articulates at five pivot points (the two adjustable sliders and three pivots as seen in the image). This constrains the pencil to move in an elliptic arc. Unlike the elliptic trammel, only half an ellipse can be drawn with this device, making it a semi-elliptic trammel. It can be turned 180 degrees to draw the other half of the ellipse. Although this device cannot draw a complete ellipse in one motion, it does have the advantage of being able to draw very small ellipses. By adjusting the distance between the two slider brackets, the eccentricity of the ellipse can be changed. Eccentricity is a number between zero and one that describes how circular an ellipse is. By moving the slider brackets closer together, the eccentricity of the ellipse is reduced, creating a more circular ellipse. As the brackets are moved farther apart, the eccentricity is increased and a more elongated ellipse is produced.
Several demonstrations of how an elliptic trammel works are available online. Comparing the slider motion of the elliptical trammel and the linkage ellipsograph highlights the similarities of the motion of these two ellipsographs. Both devices constrain the motion of the sliders so that as one moves inward on a straight line, the other slider moves outward on a straight line perpendicular to the first. Thus both types of ellipsographs produce an elliptic curve using the same mathematical theory, but incorporating different physical configurations.
The Omicron Ellipsograph is made of aluminium and steel on an acrylic base. The base is 18.5 cm by 8.5 cm (7 1/4 in by 3 3/8 in). The top bar is 18 cm (7 in) long. The whole linkage rests on the central pivot directly above the company logo. It can draw ellipses with major axes up to 12 inches long.
This brass device is a patent model for a "new and improved instrument for drawing curves and figures approximating in form ovals" (U.S. Patent 22910, February 8, 1859).
Description
This brass device is a patent model for a "new and improved instrument for drawing curves and figures approximating in form ovals" (U.S. Patent 22910, February 8, 1859). For this reason, several drawing devices that produce ellipses, called ellipsographs or elliptographs, were developed and patented in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Developed by Thomas William and William Joslin of Fishersville, Connecticut, in the 1850s, this invention consists of a circular disc that freely moves along the slot in the base of the model as it rotates. The base of the steel arm is fixed while the point fits by means of a pin into one of several holes in the disc which are at various distances from the center. The shape and movement of the arm is reminiscent of an hour hand on a clock. Attached to the bottom of the disc is an armature that can be set in various positions and has an attachment for a pencil. As the disc is rotated by hand, the arm is constrained to move side to side. This in turn forces the disc to move in a perpendicular direction along the slot. Finally, the pencil arm below the disc will move in an elliptical path. By changing the connection point of the arm on the disc as well as the distance of pencil is from the center of the disc, ellipses of different sizes and eccentricities can be produced.
The Smithsonian also owns the 1852 patent model of a machine for making cordage designed by William Joslin (U.S. Patent 8825).
This model was transferred to the Smithsonian from the U.S. Patent Office in the early 20th century along with several other patent models.
DescriptionManufactured by William Ford Stanley and Co. Ltd in the 1880s, this device was designed and patented by English inventor Edward Burslow (often seen as Burstow) in the early 1870s. Burslow lived in Horsham, England, and along with other drawing devices, invented a pentacycle for the Horsham Postal Service in 1882. Though it did not catch on for use elsewhere, the Horsham postal workers wrote Burslow a letter of appreciation for the five-wheeled contrivance.
William Ford Robinson Stanley (1829--1909) was an English inventor and philanthropist with multiple patents in England and the United States. He founded his company, which made precision mathematical and drawing instruments, among other items, in 1854 after a comment by his father about the poor quality of British technical instruments. The company continued to produce drawing and surveying instruments through the 20th century, closing its doors in 1999.
The Stanley/Burslow ellipsograph works on a very different principle than the more common elliptical trammel. Like the H. R. Corkhill ellipsograph in the collection, it uses a series of gears to move five linked arms. As the top arm is rotated, the two main arms with three gears apiece separate into a Y configuration, pulling the bracket below the device along the slot in the main horizontal beam. Into this bracket can be placed two ruled arms of different lengths to produce ellipses varying in size, from 1/4 in by 1/2 in (minor/major axis lengths) to 7 in by 14 in. Interestingly, the ellipses are drawn on a diagonal beneath the device and not in line with it. This allows larger ellipses to be drawn.
This device was transferred to the museum by the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory in 1956.
This device is a patent model by H. R. Corkhill Jr. for an ellipsograph. Patent 492,142 was granted on February 21, 1893.
Description
This device is a patent model by H. R. Corkhill Jr. for an ellipsograph. Patent 492,142 was granted on February 21, 1893. "Be it known that I, HENRY CORKHILL, Jr., of Rochester, in the county of Monroe and State of New York, have invented a new and useful improvement in Ellipsographs […] The object of my invention is to produce a device for conveniently and accurately tracing ellipses, which possesses certain advantages over similar devices heretofore used" (U.S. Patent application, March 26, 1892). Corkhill, of Rochester NY, appears to hold several other U.S. patents for various devices such as cigarette boxes, machines for making labels, and machines for folding paper tubes. His father, Henry R. Corkhill Sr., also holds several U.S. patents. Henry Jr. was born in approximately 1840 and lists his profession as machinist in census records.
An engineering, architectural, and machine drawings for two main reasons. First, any circle viewed at an angle will appear to be an ellipse. Second, ellipses were common architectural elements, often used in ceilings, staircases, and windows. For both of these reasons, ellipses needed to be rendered accurately in drawings. Several types of drawing devices that produce ellipses, called ellipsographs or elliptographs, were developed and patented in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
This brass ellipsograph is T-shaped with slots along the vertical and horizontal arms of the instrument. A crank at the top of the model rotates six gears (the first two are 5 cm in diameter, the next four are 4 cm in diameter) that are connected in line beneath the model. The second gear connects to the slider that moves along the horizontal slot. The fourth and sixth smaller gears connect to sliders on the vertical slot of the T, which are locked together by the rectangular plate shown in the image. All three sliders are allowed to be positioned at various distances along brass bars (radii) rotated by the gears below. By rotating the crank, the whole assembly pivots in such a way that the pencil attached at the bottom of the T traces out a small ellipse. By adjusting the position of each of the three slides along its respective radii of rotation, ellipses of different sizes and eccentricities can be produced (The original patent drawing and description can be viewed at Google Patents.)
This model was transferred to the Smithsonian from the U.S. Patent Office in the early 20th century along with several other patent models.
This is the patent model for a drawing devices granted U.S. Patent 21,041 to William W. Wythes on July 27, 1858.
Description
This is the patent model for a drawing devices granted U.S. Patent 21,041 to William W. Wythes on July 27, 1858. "Be it known that I, WILLIAM WYTHES, of the city of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and Improved Instrument for Drawing and Copying." (U.S. Patent Application). The Smithsonian also owns a patent model by Wythes for a cloth-measuring machine (U.S. Patent 18313). (The original patent drawings and descriptions can be viewed at Google Patents.) Special about this patent model is that the inventor has engraved "Wm W Wythes, inventor" on the large brass disc on the model.
Wythes was awarded a degree in medicine from Philadelphia College of Medicine in July 1851. He served as an assistant surgeon in the U.S. Volunteers, part of the Union forces, during the Civil War and was singled out in the Official Records of the Union and Confederate Armies, 1861--1865, as having been a notable member of the Asylum General Hospital in Knoxville during the war.
AnThe inventor claimed that the device could draw not only ellipses, but also epicycloids and spirals, thus the "cylco" in the title of the model. An epicycloid is the curve traced by a point on the circumference of a circle as it rolls about another circle. (See Schilling models 1982.0795.01, 1982.0795.02, 1982.0795.03, and 1982.0795.05 in the National Museum of American History collection.) As the name also implies, this device could be used as a pantograph, a mechanical devices used to copy line drawings. As the original drawing is traced, the pencil attached to the opposite end of the devices produces, through a series of linkages, a copy. The copy can also be scaled up or down in size. One common application of a pantograph (before the advent of computers) was to reduce the size of a drawing for use in minting money. For example, the original line drawings found on U.S. bills were full-size drawings. They were reduced and etched in order to be printed. Pantographs were also used, notably by Thomas Jefferson, for making a copy of a letter as the final draft of the original was being written out.
The Wythes Cyclo-Ellipto-Pantograph consists of a wooden beam of 38 cm (15 in) long. At one end is a large vertical brass disc with gear teeth on the back. This gear turns a horizontal disc that is attached to a brass beam under the device. There are two movable pieces along the beam. One is the pivot point of the device, under the wooden handle. The other is the writing point below the horizontal brass disc placed along the beam. As the large disc at the end of the beam is turned, the gears cause a chain (similar to a miniature bicycle chain) to circulate along the length of the beam. As the long brass beam beneath the device turns, the smaller brass beam below the movable disc traces a similar shape. By adjusting the location of the pivot point and the small horizontal disc, various shapes are formed. However, it is not clear that all the claims of the inventor are warranted. It appears that only portions of curves or ellipses can be generated. The device was offered in the J. W. Queen "Illustrated Catalogue" of 1859.

Introduction
How much fun can be had in one video? Lots!
This video takes a look at the ways you can use to find the area under a graph. Starting with the basic consideration of finding areas of triangles (for straight line graphs) it then moves on to look at how we might find areas under curves.
It starts by looking at splitting a curve into an equally spaced series of trapeziums before moving swiftly on to look at the left endpoint and right endpoint methods of finding the areas.

Problem 49938. Splitting Triangle - Problem the third
Consider an equilateral triangle sitting in Quadrant I as depicted in an example below:
This triangle is to be split into two regions (e.g., red and blue). Given the ratio between the two regions and the side of the equilateral triangle, determine the radius of the circle defining the red region. The ratio between the regions (red to blue) is presented through the first two entries in the input. For example, if the ratio is 3 to 5, then these two numbers will be the first two entries in the input. The last entry is the side of the equilateral triangle. Please also consider the following possible configuration:

To calculate the area when the radius is greater than the triangle's height, we would have to calculate the intersection between the circle & the triangle, two integrals, and a trapezoid's & a triangle's areas. But it seems no test does it know (only the test #2 may cause a precision error). | 677.169 | 1 |
A Treatise on Trigonometry, Plane and Spherical: With Its Application to ...
THE old edition has been entirely remodelled, and vast additions of valuable matter which have been some years in collecting, or are the results of recent improvements in science, have been made. The present work begins with some constructions of triangles according to the rules given in geometry, followed by others in which scales of equal parts and protractors are employed, showing at once and distinctly, what is to be understood by the solution of a triangle, and the value of trigonometry in the measurement of inaccessible heights and distances.
The evident inaccuracy in the use of instruments leads the learner to perceive the necessity of a more exact and certain method, and prepares him to enter with satisfaction upon the study of Analytical Trigonometry.
The explanation of the Trigonometrical Lines has been prepared with great care, and it is believed that considerable improvement in the method of exhibiting their changes will be observed. Their application to the solution of triangles is immediately shown in a few cases, with the help of a table of natural sines and cosines at the end.
Then follows a full exposition of the theory and use of logarithms, with every variety of example, including an explanation of the Tables at the end. The use is also taught of the tables of Callet, the tables in highest repute, an American edition of which is known as Hassler's tables.*
Part I. concludes with the application of logarithms and logarithmic sines, tangents, &c., to a number of practical examples in heights and distances, involving every case in the solution of plane triangles.
After this a few pages of miscellaneous exercises occur, which, with those in fine print scattered through the 1st Part, will serve to give greater skill to the better class of students. Appendix I., which follows next in order, contains a vast variety of general formulas, succinct methods of solution, and methods advantageous in particular cases, methods of treating small arcs, resolutions of Algebraic equations by the aid of Trigonometry, various expressions for the area of a triangle in terms of its angles and sides, effects of errors of observation on results; in short, everything necessary for a comprehensive knowledge of Trigonometry.t
*The German tables most in use are those of Vega and those of Köhler.
† Navigation and Surveying, if to be studied, should be taken up immediately after Plane Trigonometry.
Part II. contains Spherical Trigonometry. Particular care has been taken to render the demonstrations here, plain and easy, and to avoid all unnecessary repetition and complication.
It was found that the introduction of a few celestial circles, such for the most part as the study of geography may be supposed to have already rendered familiar, would afford an opportunity for making all the examples of Spherical Trigonometry Astronomical.
The use of the hour angle and of different kinds of time has led also to the introduction of a full description of the transit instrument and its various adjustments, the theory of which depends on Spherical Trigonometry, and is given in all its details.
The practical character of the problems is a peculiar feature in the plan of the present work. The consideration which led to it was that since Trigonometry had grown out of the actual wants of men in these very particulars, if they were sufficiently interesting to stimulate discovery, they would also incite to the study of what is already known. The analytic method, though not always practicable before the mind is somewhat furnished, is doubtless by far the best method of training. Besides this general reason for introducing Astronomical problems here, it was deemed useful thus to prepare the way for the study of Astronomy whilst the formulas and rules of Trigonometry were fresh in the memory, and to prevent that neglect of the Trigonometrical Solutions of Astronomy, which is apt to result from the trouble of recalling what has been long laid aside. It was thought, too, that this foretaste of Astronomy might excite a relish for that study.
The examination questions will be found convenient for students preparing for examination on Trigonometry, or for those studying without the aid of a teacher. Appendix II., which follows Spherical Trigonometry, is of a character analogous to Appendix I.
Part III. exhibits a pleasing and useful application of Plane Trigonometry to the principles of navigation. This will be found a very complete treatise on the subject in small compass. The appendix to this part, App. III., includes great circle sailing, a method not usually treated in works on navigation, nor much used at present at sea; but as it serves to shorten voyages, and has no practical inconveniences in the case of steamers, which class of vessels is becoming numerous on the ocean, it cannot longer with propriety be omitted. Sumner's method is also here introduced.
Part IV. is a very complete treatise of surveying, which, by reducing the subject rigorously to its essential elements, is brought within a small space. Besides what is contained in ordinary treatises, including a full description of all the surveying instruments, will be found the methods of surveying railroads and canals, the principles of Topography, and a new method of Hydrographic Surveying.
Part V., which treats of Nautical and Practical Astronomy, contains a complete description of all the Astronomical instruments used at sea and in observatories, a thorough investigation of the theory of their adjustments, and of the corrections to be applied to the observations for errors of adjustment, the use of nearly every part
of the nautical almanac and tables of corrections for determining the co-ordinates of the true places of the heavenly bodies, and the solutions in Spherical Trigonometry necessary for converting one set of co-ordinates into another, with all the best methods of determining latitude and longitude, either on land or at sea. App. V. contains the description of the reflecting circle and mural circle, the determination of latitude by circummeridian altitudes, by the method of Littrow, and by an altitude of the pole star out of the meridian.
Part VI. contains the necessary instruction for conducting a geodetic survey on a scale of sufficient magnitude to require not merely the spherical figure, but also the spheroidal figure of the earth to be taken into consideration. When the formulas in this part involve the theory of conic sections, they are given and the use taught, but the demonstrations are reserved for the last appendix, in which the calculus is freely introduced when necessary. The subject commences with the modes of measuring bases, with an account of the beautiful improvements in the base apparatus recently made in this country, and the formulas of reduction to the level of the neighboring seas. Then follows a description of the great theodolite, and the methods of conducting the observations of the great or primary triangulation, the modes of verifying and correcting the observed spherical angles, and of computing the elements of the spherical triangles. Then the methods of determining geodetically the differences of latitude, longitude, and azimuth of the stations at the vertices of the triangles, with the construction of maps and the explanation of the necessary tables. Then the best methods of conducting the Astronomical observations for latitude, longitude, and azimuths. The description of the instruments and modes of conducting the magnetic observations, and the use of the formulas for determining the elements of terrestrial magnetism.
App. VI. describes the equatorial, the altitude and azimuth instrument, the prime vertical transit, and gives theorems for determining the size and figure of the earth, &c. The methods given in this geodetic treatise are those employed upon the coast survey of the United States.*
The tables include a table of logarithms, of numbers, of logarithmic sines, tangents, cosines, cotangents, secants and cosecants ;t a table of natural sines and cosines, a table of difference of latitude and departure for every point and quarter point of the quadrant, a table of Rhumbs, a table of meridional parts, Workman's table for the correction of the middle latitude, a table of refractions, with corrections for the states of the barometer and thermometer, a table for dip or depression of the horizon, a table of the sun's parallax in altitude, of the contraction of the
* These are in some respects superior to the latest and best European methods. The author has to acknowledge the politeness of the accomplished superintendent of the coast survey in furnishing every facility for obtaining information.
The last two are not usually found in the best tables. The method of taking out the difference for the seconds in these tables is new and expeditious.
sun's or moon's vertical semi-diameter from refraction, of the augmentation of the moon's semi-diameter with its altitude, a table of proportional logarithms, a table of the reductions of the moon's equatorial parallax for the spheroidal figure of the earth, and finally a table of natural versed sines for reducing observations to the meridian.
Besides these, other small tables and specimens of tables are scattered throughout the work.
Most of the tables are printed from the beautiful and accurate stereotype plates of the tables accompanying Bowditch's Navigator, by permission of the proprietor, Mr. G. W. Blunt.
The author has to acknowledge the kindness of Prof. CHAUVENET, of the U. S. Naval Academy, in permitting the use of his valuable paper on Unlimited Spherical Triangles, first introduced by Gauss. It will be found in Appendix II., as contained in the Astronomical Journal, with some slight modifications and explanatory notes. | 677.169 | 1 |

The triangle may be bigger than smaller or flipped around, but it will always have the same ratio . Basic Trigonometry. Calculators include sin, cos and tan that can aid you, let's take a look how to make use of them: Trigonometry is particularly concerned with the proportions of sides within a right triangle .1 Example: How tall is the Tree? These ratios is used as a degree of an angle. The tree isn't tall enough to climb to the summit in the trees, therefore we move away and calculate an angle (using an instrument called a prototractor) or distance (using the laser): These ratios are known as trigonometric function, and the most fundamental functions are sine and cosine.1
We have the Hypotenuse and we would like to learn about the opposite. The two functions can be used to denote the various other widely-known trigonometric concepts: tangent secant, cosecant, as well as cotangent. Sine represents the proportion of Hypotenuse and Opposite : The first section of this article begins with a review of right triangles and explaining the basics of trigonometric calculations.1 sin(45deg) equals Opposite Hypotenuse. The article also provides explanations of their reciprocals. Take a calculator and input "45" followed by"sin," then "sin" button: It also discusses how to assess trigonometric angles particularly those angles with special characteristics of 3045-, 45, and 60-degrees.1 sin(45deg) = 0.7071.
In the final section, the reference on this subject will explain how to handle the trigonometric function's inverses and two of the most popular methods to measure angles. What does the 0.7071. signify? It's the ratio between the lengths of the sides.

Uses of Trigonometry. Trigonometric Functions. There's a broad array of theoretical and practical applications of trigonometric calculations. Trigonometric functions are among the six mathematical functions that are characterized by the domain input as angles of the right-angled triangle and a numerical answer as the range.1
They can be utilized to determine angles or sides missing from triangles, but they are also able to calculate the length of beams supporting structures to build a bridge, or to calculate the height of tall objects using the shadow. A trigonometric formula (also known as the 'trig functions') of f(x) = sinth has a domain that is, the angle th that is expressed as degrees or radians.1 This subject covers different kinds of trigonometry challenges and how the fundamental trigonometric calculations can be used to discover inconclusive lengths of sides. It also has an amplitude of [-1 1, 1one, one]. It also discusses the ways they can be used to calculate angles and the area of a trigonometric triangle.1 The domain and range that is shared by every other function.
This section is concluded in subtopics that deal with how to apply the Laws of Sines and the Law of Cosines.

Graphics that represent Trigonometric Functions. FAQs about Trigonometric Functions. The unit circle on the Cartesian plane can be converted into trigonometric operations, each of these functions comes with their own graph. What is Trigonometric Functions?1
These graphs are cyclical in the sense that they are cyclic in. There are six fundamental trigonometric functions utilized in Trigonometry. Generally, graphs of trigonometric functions have the greatest value when the x-axis has been divided by intervals that are pi radius while the y-axis still is broken into intervals made up of complete numbers.1
The functions used are trigonometric relationships. This chapter covers the most fundamental graphs of sine, cosine and the tangent. The six fundamental trigonometric operations include sine function, cosine function, Secant Function, Co-secant functions, tangent function, and co-tangent function.1 Then, it discusses transformations of these graphs as well as their properties.
The trigonometric functions and identities represent the ratio of sides in an right-angled triangle. In the end, the subject concludes by introducing a subtopic that focuses on the graphs of the reciprocals of the fundamental trigonometric functions.1 These sides in a right-angled triangle are called the perpendicular side hypotenuse, base, and a hypotenuse which can be used to calculate the sine cosine, cosine and tangent secant, cosecant and cotangent value using trigonometric formulas.

Trigonometric Functions Formulas. Trigonometric Identities. We can use certain formulas to calculate the values of trig function with the right-angled sides of the triangle. This is the point at which trigonometric calculations become a thing independently of their roots in side ratios of triangles.1 For formulas to write these we utilize the abbreviated versions of the functions. The functions have many identities that show the relation between different types of trigonometric functions. Sine appears as sin. while cosine is written in cos, the term tangent is referred to as Tan, secant is represented by sec cosecant can be abbreviated as cosec and cotangent is abbreviated to cot.1
These identities are used to calculate the angles with angles that do not fall within the typical reference angles. The most basic formulas to determine trigonometric equations are as below: Actually, they were the most effective tool to do this before calculators. sin th = Perpendicular/Hypotenuse cos th = Base/Hypotenuse tan th = Perpendicular/Base sec th = Hypotenuse/Base cosec th = Hypotenuse/Perpendicular cot th = Base/Perpendicular.1 This section explains trigonometric names and how to identify and keep them in mind. | 677.169 | 1 |
Solution: Here the median \(XC\) bisects the length \(ZY\), so that each of the two segments \(CZ\) and \(CY\) are equal to each other. Since \(CZ = CY\), we have
\(\frac{1}{2}x - 1 = \frac{{2x - 9}}{2}\)
Multiplying both sides by 2 gives us
\(x - 2 = 2x - 9\)
Then solving for \(x\), we have
\(x = 7\)
So you see that the median can be useful for solving triangle problems.
Example: Find \(x\) if \(FS = x\) and \(FY = x + 3\)
Solution: Here the median \(FY\) passes through the centroid of the triangle. By the property of the centroid, this will cut the median \(FY\) into two segments \(FS\) and \(SY\) whose lengths are in the ratio 2:1. That is, if \(FS = x\), we have that \(SY = \frac{1}{2}x\). Then the sum of \(FS\) and \(SY\) is \(FY\). That is, | 677.169 | 1 |
Message #3272
If you think of the 120-cell as living in S^3 (on the 3-sphere), then yes -
the longest length between portions of it are at antipodes. With a
normalized 3-sphere radius of 1, this distance would be 2 as a straight
line distance, or pi as a geodesic distance in the 3-sphere. Antipodal
points that are centers of cells or any other antipodal points would all be
the same distance from each other.
If you think of the 120-cell as a polytope living in R^4, then it's a
little more complicated. Think about the dodecahedron. It has an
"inradius" through antipodal faces, a "midradius" through antipodal edges,
and a "circumradius" through antipodal vertices. The last are the furthest
from each other. The 120-cell would be have similarly, and so I gather you
are asking: What is the circumradius of the 120-cell, with a scaling so
that the edge length is 1? Note that the longest portion is *not* the
center of a cell to the center of the opposite cell.
Sounds like an interesting problem to calculate, but I was lazy and looked
it up.
That page says the vertices of a 120-cell with circumradius 2*sqrt(2) have
edge length 3 - sqrt(5). Therefore, the circumradius of a 120-cell with
edge length 1 have circumradius 2*sqrt(2)/(3-sqrt(5)), or approximately 3.7

The distance between antipodal vertices will be twice that amount. | 677.169 | 1 |
Rigid transformations and dilations of two-dimensional figures and angles preserve properties of congruence and proportionality.
Unit Objectives
● Students will be able to identify, use, and manipulate two-dimensional figures using rotations, reflections, translations and dilations. ● Students will verify that rigid transformations take lines to lines, segments to congruent segments, angles to congruent angles, and parallel lines to
parallel lines through experimentation. ● Students will understand that two figures are congruent if one can be constructed from the other as a result of a composition of rigid transformations. ● Students will use coordinates to describe the effect of transformations on two-dimensional figures. ● Students will understand that two figures are similar if one can be constructed from the other as a result of a composition of dilations and rigid
transformations. ● Students will establish two facts about the exterior angles of a triangle: 1) that the sum of the two remote interior angles of a triangle equals the exterior
angle of a triangle and 2) that an exterior angle of a triangle is supplementary to the adjacent interior angle of the triangle. ● Students will be able to establish that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is equal 180 degrees. ● Students will be able to understand the relationship between angles that are created when parallel lines are cut by a transversal.
Unit Description
This unit consists of three sections. First, students will explore congruence through rigid transformations (translations, rotations, and reflections) of polygons on the plane. Second, students will investigate similarity by dilating figures and noting that angle measures, from the original figure to its image, are preserved and side lengths remain proportional. Finally, students will explore the relationships between the interior and exterior angles in a triangle and various pairs of angles created when parallel lines are crossed by a transversal.
CCSS-M Content Standards
Geometry 8.G Understand congruence and similarity using physical models, transparencies, or geometry software. 8.G.1 Verify experimentally the properties of rotations, reflections, and translations: 8.G.1a Lines are taken to lines, and line segments to line segments of the same length. 8.G.1b Angles are taken to angles of the same measure. 8.G.1c Parallel lines are taken to parallel lines. 8.G.2 Understand that a two-dimensional figure is congruent to another if the second can be obtained from the first by a sequence of rotations, reflections, and translations; given two congruent figures, describe a sequence that exhibits the congruence between them. 8.G.3 Describe the effect of dilations, translations, rotations, and reflections on two-dimensional figures using coordinates.
8.G.4 Understand that a two-dimensional figure is similar to another if the second can be obtained from the first by a sequence of rotations, reflections, translations, and dilations; given two similar two-dimensional figures, describe a sequence that exhibits the similarity between them. 8.G.5 Use informal arguments to establish facts about the angle sum and exterior angle of triangles, about the angles created when parallel lines are cut by a transversal, and the angle-angle criterion for similarity of triangles. For example, arrange three copies of the same triangle so that the sum of the three angles appears to form a line, and give an argument in terms of transversals why this is so.
Previously, in sixth grade, students learned how to draw polygons in a coordinate plane given coordinates for the vertices. In seventh grade, students learned about supplementary, complementary, vertical, and adjacent angles. They also constructed triangles given the measures of three angles. Additionally, students used proportionality to create scale drawings with geometric figures.
Rigid transformations and dilations of two-dimensional figures preserve properties of congruence and proportionality. Specifically, rigid transformations of two-dimensional figures preserve angle measures and side lengths. A two-dimensional figure is congruent to another two-dimensional figure if the second can be obtained from the first through a series of rigid transformations. Dilations preserve angle measure and create proportional side lengths. A two-dimensional figure is similar to another if the second can be obtained from the first through a series of rigid transformations and dilations. The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle, as well as the relationships between an exterior angle of a triangle and the two remote interior angles and between an exterior angle of a triangle and the adjacent interior angle are constant. The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees, and the measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two remote interior angles. An exterior angle of a triangle and the adjacent interior angle are supplementary. The angles formed when parallel lines are cut by a transversal also have constant relationships. Specifically, angles formed when parallel lines are cut by a transversal are always either congruent or supplementary. The triangle angle sum relationship can be used to establish triangle similarity. If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, the triangles are similar.
In high school, students will represent transformations as functions and compare rigid transformations to those that do not preserve distance and angle measure. They will describe the series of rigid transformations that carry a regular polygon onto itself. Given a figure and a rigid transformation, students will draw the transformed image of the figure. They will understand congruence in terms of rigid motions and explain how the criteria for triangle congruence follow from the definition of congruence in terms of rigid motion. Students will understand similarity in terms of dilation. Students will use similarity transformations to establish the Angle/Angle similarity criterion.
Unit Design All SFUSD Mathematics Core Curriculum Units are developed with a combination of rich tasks and lessons series. The tasks are both formative and summative assessments of student learning. The tasks are designed to address four central questions: Entry Task: What do you already know? Apprentice Task: What sense are you making of what you are learning? Expert Task: How can you apply what you have learned so far to a new situation? Milestone Task: Did you learn what was expected of you from this unit?
Students watch a YouTube video, The Gingerbread Transformer, as an introduction to rigid transformations. Students use a technology tool available at Lesson 6.1.1, where students will try to move the key to the keyhole to unlock the door using transformation buttons such as sliding, turning or flipping. *If technology is not available, hard copies are available of the same activity where students can write their responses as to how the key was moved to unlock the door.
Students take written descriptions of rigid transformations and transform objects on the coordinate plane.
Students use transformations to show that two figures are similar. They will start by proving that two figures are similar through a series of transformations. Then students work to find out which transformations will result in congruent figures and which will result in similar figures. They use a sequence of translations to find the coordinates of the new figure using two different steps for their transformation. Finally, students find a sequence of transformations that will transform one figure to become another figure.
Students demonstrate a series of transformations, describe transformations, and demonstrate understanding of congruence.
Students investigate and describe rigid transformations on a coordinate graph. They write equations to describe the effects of a rigid transformation on coordinates. Finally, students use rigid transformations to create a design.
Students investigate dilations by multiplying by a variety of whole number and fractional factors. They develop an understanding of similarity and congruence and how it relates to transformations. Finally, they use ratio and scale factors to reduce and enlarge shapes.
Students establish facts about angle relationships created when parallel lines are crossed by a transversal. Students find missing angles in triangles and learn that the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees through an investigation. Next, they discover the relationship between the measure of an exterior angle of a triangle and the sum of the measures of the two remote interior angles. Finally, students investigate the Angle-Angle criterion for triangle similarity.
● Flipping when not moving around the axis. ● Multiple transformations (locating end points correctly). ● Starting in one quadrant and rotating to another, the assumption is 90
degrees rotation instead of 180 degrees.
Launch: Show the Gingerbread Transformer: Then project the tool set on the Introduction tab and demonstrate the three transformation buttons to introduce lesson. This is to demonstrate to students that there are only three possible moves. During: After the demonstration, have students work in pairs on a computer, using this technology tool: Also give each pair Resource Page 6.1.1 to record their movements. Students will begin the computer program, starting with the introduction problems, then the standard problems and finally the challenge problems. Note: If you do not have access to computers for the students, project the buttons on the screen. Before each transformation, have the students explain what is going to happen before you demonstrate each movement. If you don't have any access to a computer, use a document camera or overhead projector. Project or display a coordinate grid on board. Create two L shapes that you can use to move across the screen to display the different transformations. Closure/Extension: Have students reflect on what each button did to the key. Possible discussion and/or exit ticket questions include: 1. How is a slide different than a flip? 2. What does rotate do to the shape? 3. Decide which buttons would you assign to each of these symbols:
Focus Standards for Mathematical Practice: 1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
Structures for Student Learning: Students can work individually or in pairs. Each student or pair needs access to a computer is suggested. Encourage students to check in with a neighbor to harbor communication throughout lesson. If in pairs, encourage students to discuss decisions and share control of the keyboard and mouse. Academic Language Support:
Sentence frames: The key is moving ________________ units to the ____________ (right or left) and ____________ units __________ (up or down). The key is flipping in this direction ___________________ to get to the keyhole.
Differentiation Strategies: You may want to help pairs of students use word attack skills to understand the vocabulary while they are at the computers. Allowing students to work in pairs will offer the help of each student's input for recording the movements on the resource page. In addition, have students stop every so often to do a think-pair-share strategy to work with their partners thinking and recording before moving on. Use physical arm movements for students to explain the meaning of horizontal and vertical, as well as using the example of a clock in the room to demonstrate clockwise and counter clockwise. Participation Structures (group, partners, individual, other): Students may work individually or with partners. Each student or partner is assigned one computer and one resource page to record on.
Lesson Series Overview: In this lesson series, students will explore rigid transformations on a coordinate graph by describing movements, describe transformations on a coordinate graph by writing similar expressions, and use rigid transformations by translating, rotating, and reflecting. CCSS-M Standards Addressed: 8.G.1a, 8.G.1b, 8.G.1c, 8.G.2 Time: 6 days
Lesson Overview – Day 1 Resources
Description of Lesson: To start this lesson, have students create a foldable graphic organizer by folding a sheet of plain paper in fourths. Each box represents one transformation with a description: Translation, Rotation, Reflection and Dilation (note that dilations will be described in a future lesson). In this lesson, teachers will prepare nine posters on graph poster paper with coordinate axes. On each poster, draw two identical triangles (3-4-5 right triangles work well) in different positions. Have students cut out two congruent triangles for each group. Students will circulate around the room, using the recording sheet (Transformations Recording Sheet) to record the movements needed to move the triangle from its starting position to its ending position for at least 6 of the nine posters. This activity is intended to help students understand the rigid transformations. At this point, students should not be responsible for mastery of the vocabulary. Notes: This activity works better if posters are laid flat on tables rather than hanging on the wall. Also, if students finish quickly, challenge them to find alternate routes.
Transformations Recording Sheet Poster Triangle Coordinates Cards
Lesson Overview – Day 2 Resources
Description of Lesson: In this lesson, you will project the Transformation and Demonstration Activity and complete two examples with the whole class to revisit what was done the day before. In pairs, students will then solve the block challenge by moving each block from the starting position to the ending position using translations, rotations, and reflections. Students will describe the moves they made to reach the ending position and find more than one way in which the block could be moved. At the end of the lesson, students will be able to share their ideas with the class.
Description of Lesson: The next day, you will provide students with starting points and directions to move to unlock the lock, and students will need to find out where the lock is by answering a series of questions. Students will plot the given starting points and follow the steps to unlock the key by naming, sketching, and labeling coordinates for each vertex. Then students will begin to compare lengths of the sides, angles, and find different steps to unlock the key. If it is possible, students will list the new steps. If not possible, students will explain why it is not possible.
Description of Lesson: At the beginning of the lesson, students will be given problems 6-18 and 6-19. They will be working in pairs. Problem 6-18 focuses on translations of quadrilaterals. They will move a shape in the coordinate plane and locate the new points created by the translation. Next, they will create expressions to show how their points moved. This will set them up to model problem 6-19. Then, students will move to problem 6-19. Here, they use similar expressions from problem 6-18 to move another shape without a picture. (You may want to give students graph paper, pattern blocks, or patty paper to help them visualize the movements happening.) Note: Problem 6-18 d. and e. and Problem 6-19 b. ask students to write equations to describe the transformations. This could be presented as a challenge to students. What is important here is that students understand the relationship between the starting coordinates and the ending coordinates.
Description of Lesson: At the beginning of the lesson, students will be given problems 6-20 through 6-24. The focus of 6-20 to 6-22 is working with reflections. (You may want to provide students with graph or patty paper.) Students will describe how transformations were made and deeply analyze what happened to the x- and y-coordinates. Then students will explore what would happen if the coordinates in the x-axis were reflected instead by first visualizing it then actually reflecting it on graph paper. They will compare and notice differences and similarities and think about how multiplication could be used to describe the change. In 6-22, students will reflect starting points by multiplying each x-coordinate by –1 and stating the new points. Then students will graph the original and new triangle and discuss whether or not the triangle was reflected across the y-axis. In 6-23, students are reflecting their work on reflections and informally think about congruence. Then in 6-24, students use their experience from the previous lessons to solve the final step in a key problem through graphing and writing an expression. Note: students that are able to move ahead can work on 6-25 for an additional challenge.
Description of Lesson: This lesson will be an extension of Day 1 in the lesson series. Students will create their own graph on poster paper with coordinate axes. Students will be given the Poster Triangle Coordinates task cards and draw two identical triangles from the original and new coordinates on the task cards. Students can use their cut out triangles from Day 1 to help them with this activity. After drawing out the two identical triangles, as a team, students will figure out what transformations need to be made to get to the new triangle coordinates. These movements need to be recorded on the poster paper using specific vocabulary. Each movement written needs to include a type of transformation and the direction. At this point, students should be responsible for mastery of the vocabulary. Note: Also, if students finish quickly, challenge them to find alternate routes.

What will students do?
Mathematics Objectives and Standards Framing Student Experience
Math Objectives: Students will be able to take written descriptions of rigid transformations and transform objects on the coordinate plane. CCSS-M Standards Addressed: 8.G.1.a Potential Misconceptions: Students may struggle with transformations of circles and recognizing the center of the circle. They may also have trouble reflecting across a line. Also, students may not understand that additional descriptions of transformations of an object are from the original, not from the image. When translating shapes, students did not always understand the correspondence between a point and its image.
Launch: Give students the Lesson 6.1.4A Resource Page where three different shapes will be provided on a graph. Students will follow the directions to create a design and describe the picture that is formed adding color and details to their design. (Look at 6-33 for directions.) During: Students will be able to create their own design given basic shapes A through F on the Lesson 6.1.4C Resource Page. Closure/Extension: Students will write their own complete directions at the bottom of their resource page for creating their own design. This task will most likely take longer than a class period to complete. Any unfinished work could be assigned for homework. At this point, students should describe movements using appropriate vocabulary. A possible extension could be to have students cut off their descriptions and share them with another student. The other student will attempt to recreate their design using the description.
To move the object, _________________ (movement) to the __________________ (direction).
Differentiation Strategies: To help students struggling with transformations, provide them with manipulatives (such as the triangles used in Day 1 of Lesson Series 1). Participation Structures (group, partners, individual, other): This is an individual activity. Students can work cooperatively, but each student should produce a product.
Lesson Series Overview: In the beginning of this lesson series, students will look at enlarging and reducing shapes using dilations to explore why a shape changes in certain ways. Students will identify similar shapes and then sort and compare shapes analyzing how shapes are growing or shrinking. Students will then investigate how to use transformations to show that two figures are similar. This will lead to working with corresponding sides and introducing students to scale factor, finding scale factor, and using scale factor to find missing sides. At the end of this series, students will continue to solve problems involving similar shapes by finding missing sides and look for more than one way to solve problems. CCSS-M Standards Addressed: 8.G.3, 8.G.4 Time: 5 days
Lesson Overview – Day 1 Resources
Description of Lesson: In this lesson, students will investigate dilations by multiplying the values of the x- and y-coordinates of the vertices of a polygon and discover properties of similarities. In problem 6-42, in pairs, students will multiply the x- and y-coordinates of the vertices of a polygon and predict how their shape will change. They will then test their prediction to see whether they were correct by graphing the original and new shape and comparing the two figures. In problem 6-43, students will continue to investigate what happens to the graph of a shape when both coordinates are multiplied by the same number, including negative numbers and fractions. Students will use a triangular shape on a graph and create dilations. Then they analyze how the figure changed, comparing the side lengths, angles, and line relationships for each dilation. Students can write another question to investigate (What happens if we multiply the coordinates by …?) and make a conjecture about what will happen. See problem 6-44.
Description of Lesson: Day 1: This lesson reinforces the work students did in 6.2.1. At the beginning of the lesson, students will start by undoing dilations in problem 6-52. In problem 6-53 students investigate how to undo a dilation that was a result of multiplying by a fraction. Finally, in problem 6-54 students will work with their teams to use their previously dilated shapes to answer questions about similar shapes and how they are related in 6-54. Students should connect that both dilations are shrinking. Day 2: In problems 6-55 and 6-56, students will work in teams to make predictions about what they could have done to the coordinates of the shape to make it look stretched or squished and what actions would keep the shape the same. Students will then test their predictions by graphing them and reflect on their predictions.
Description of Lesson: Day 1: At the beginning of the lesson, as a team, students will cut out various shapes from the Lesson 6.2.3 Resource Page and decide how each shape is related to the original shape by comparing angles and sides to the original shape. Students will begin to find shapes that are similar to the original shape and analyze how the shapes are common and different. This is where students will be introduced to scale factor and find the scale factor with two shapes that are similar by using a ruler to figure out if each side of the shape is being enlarged the same number of times. In problem 6-65, students will review shapes from 6-64 and grasp an understanding of congruent shapes by finding the shape that is exactly equal to the original shape. Using patty paper, students will be able to check that the two shapes are congruent and record their responses. Day 2: In problem 6-66, students will continue to analyze shapes and determine if they are similar. If they are, then the scale factor needs to be identified. If not, students will prove how one pair of sides does not share the scale factor. In problem 6-67, students will revisit the shapes from the previous lesson (6-66) and color code corresponding sides and compare them. Lastly, students will practice enlarging shapes and predict the lengths of the enlarged shape without drawing the shape and determine the scale factor. In problem 6-68, students will predict which of the given scale factors would enlarge or reduce the shape provided without creating it. Then as a group, students will draw all of the similar triangles using the four given scale factors and analyze them to the original shape.
● Students may confuse similarity and congruence ● Students may have trouble recognizing corresponding parts of similar
or congruent figures ● Students may not recognize that a rotation has to be around a point ● Students may have trouble determining the scale factor
Launch: Have students work on problem 6-76 as a do now. Have a class discussion about similarity and using transformations to show that two figures are similar. During: Have students work in groups to complete problems 6-77 through 6-79. In problem 6-77, students will work to find out which transformations will result in congruent figures and which will result in similar figures. In problem 6-78, students will use a sequence of translations to find the coordinates of the new figure using two different steps for their transformation. Then they will show two figures can be similar and explain why they are. Finally in problem 6-79, students will find a sequence of transformations that will transform one figure to another figure to summarize their understanding. Closure/Extension: Have students share their solutions for problem 6-79. Discuss the fact that different sequences of transformations can result in the same solution.
Sentence frames: ___________________, ___________________ and _____________________ create congruent figures. ______________________ create similar figures. One sequence that move one figure to the other is _______________ then ________________.
Differentiation Strategies: Have students draw and label each intermediate figure in the sequence. Color code vertices or sides. Provide patty paper or manipulatives such as trapezoids to help students see the possible sequences of transformations. Participation Structures (group, partners, individual, other): This is best done with students working in teams.
Lesson Series Overview: Students will establish facts about angle relationships created when parallel lines are crossed by a transversal. Students will find missing angles in triangles and learn that the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees. Students will discover the relationship between the measure of an exterior angle of a triangle and the sum of the measures of the two remote interior angles. Students will investigate the Angle-Angle criterion for triangle similarity. CCSS-M Standards Addressed: 8.G.5 Time: 4 Days
Lesson Overview – Day 1 Resources
Description of Lesson: Students will investigate the relationships between angles formed when parallel lines are crossed by a transversal. They will also be introduced to the notation for parallel and perpendicular lines, as well as the vocabulary describing all the related sets of angles and the term conjecture. Have students complete problems 9-1 through 9-6 in teams, using patty paper rather than protractors to compare angle measures. Students can then create a graphic organizer to summarize the vocabulary in this lesson. Notes: This is a good place to remind students not to assume that lines that are parallel or perpendicular just because they look parallel or perpendicular.
Description of Lesson: Discovering Geometry Lesson 4.1: Students will find missing angles in triangles and learn that the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees. Working in groups, students will draw different kinds of triangles (acute, obtuse). They will find the sum of the three interior angles by measuring with a protractor and check their solutions by tearing off the three angles and arranging them to meet in one point. Students will then complete the triangle sum conjecture and use their discovery to solve problems 9-18 and 9-19 in CPM 9.1.2. Notes: Students should complete the investigation on pp. 200–201 and complete the Triangle Sum Conjecture, but they do not need to write a paragraph proof (that's for high school).
Description of Lesson: Students will discover the relationship between the measure of an exterior angle of a triangle and the sum of the measures of the two remote interior angles. They will calculate the measures of missing angles and organize the results in a table to see the relationship between the measure of the exterior angle and the two remote interior angles.
Description of Lesson: Students will investigate the Angle-Angle criterion for triangle similarity. First, students will determine that corresponding angles in similar figures are congruent. Then they will establish that if two angles in one triangle are congruent to two angles in another triangle, the third pair of angles must also be congruent. Finally, students will conclude that if two angles in one triangle are congruent to two triangles in a second triangle, then the triangles are similar.
● Students may have trouble multiplying coordinates by –1. ● Students may mix up x- and y-coordinates.
Launch: You may choose to read the task introduction aloud before passing out the performance task. Make sure students understand that the transformation for Part 1 is performed on the original coordinates, the transformation for Part 2 is performed on the new coordinates from Part 1, and the transformation for Part 3 is performed on the new coordinates from Part 2. For the constructed response, you may want to provide patty paper as a resource. During: Circulate to make sure students are on task and are making sense of the assignment. Closure/Extension: You may want to debrief the Milestone Task after you have collected student work by comparing different ways that students transformed Triangle A to Triangle B.
Focus Standards for Mathematical Practice: 1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. 6. Attend to precision.
Structures for Student Learning: Academic Language Support:
Vocabulary: transformation, coordinates Sentence frames: I predict that this transformation will move the triangle __________. This transformation moved the triangle ______________.
Differentiation Strategies: Students who have trouble visualizing transformations could use pattern blocks on the coordinate grid. Participation Structures (group, partners, individual, other): This activity is an individual task. | 677.169 | 1 |

Co-latitude of any point on the earth's surface is the angle between the vertical at that point and the axis of the earth. It is therefore the complement of the latitude, i.e. the difference between 90° and the latitude of the place. Thus the colatitude of the north-pole is 0°, of London about 38-1/2°, and of any point on the equator 90°. | 677.169 | 1 |

Clever idea, but no. Trig functions (sine, cosine, tangent) are defined as ratios. Sine is "opposite over hypotenuse" (the SOH of SOHCAHTOA). When we draw the triangle inside a unit circle the hypotenuse is automatically 1 at any angle. That means the sine of an angle is simply the length of the "opposite" leg of the triangle (opposite / 1). If you make the circle radius = 2 it makes both O and H twice as long, but the ratio stays the same. Nice try. I like the way you think.
Hello, we are starting the curves of sine and cosine at school, is this what I need to know for an understanding of it, I mean is this the basics for starting the sine and cosine graphs/curves? Thank you
When sine and cosine are first revealed in Trigonometry class they are taught as ratios of the the sides of right triangles. The memorization tool is "SOA CAH TOA".
If you fit the right triangle inside a circle, you can slide the tip of the triangle around the circle and think about sin and cos of a point somewhere along the circle. It all means the same thing, just a slightly different mental picture.
Using this circle perspective is really handy. In the next few videos we let the point on the circle move as time goes by, so you get this orbiting point. That turns out to be a super useful way to think about Signals. (sound, radio waves, light)
Meanwhile, in Trig class you will use the right triangle viewpoint to prove all sorts of useful properties and identities of trig functions.
Sine and cosine are related to circles but are not made of circles. Recall the definition of sine is based on a right triangle inside a circle. sin = opposite / hypotenuse, and cos = adjacent / hypotenuse (SOH CAH TOA).

Video transcript
- [Voiceover] Now I'm gonna
clear off the screen here and we're gonna talk about the
shape of the sine function. Let's do that. This is a plot of the sine function where the angle, theta, this
is the theta axis in this plot, where theta has been plotted
out on a straight line instead of wrapped around this circle. So if we draw a line on here, let's make this circle a radius one. So if I draw this line up here, it's on a unit circle,
the definition of sine of theta, this will be theta here, is opposite over hypotenuse. So this is the opposite side and that distance is the opposite leg of that triangle, is
this value right here. So sine of theta is actually equal to y over the hypotenuse and
the hypotenuse is one in all cases around this. So, if I plot this on a curve, this is an angle and I
basically go over here and plot it like that. And then as theta swings
around the circle, I'm gonna plot the different values of y. If it comes over this
way, down here like this, right, you can see that, that plots over there like that. Now when the angle gets
back all the way to zero, of course, the sine function
comes all the way back to zero and then it repeats again
as our vector swings around the other way. So the sine of two pi is zero,
just like the sine of zero. So every two pi, if I go off the screen, every two pi comes back
and repeats to zero. So now I wanna do the same
thing with the cosine function that we did with sine, where
we project the projection of this value onto this time
the cosine curve down here. This has the cosine curve with
time going down on the page. And our definition of cosine was adjacent over hypotenuse. Hypotenuse is one in our drawing. So cosine of theta equals adjacent which is x, the x value, divided by hypotenuse which is one. So in this diagram, the cosine of theta is actually the x value
which is this x right here. So let me clean this off for a second. And we'll start at the beginning. Let's start with the radius
pointing straight sideways. And we know that cosine of
theta equals zero is one. So if I drop that down,
if I project that down onto the angle zero, that's this point right here on the curve. Now as we roll forward,
we go to a higher angle, this projection now moves
to here on the curve. When the arrow is straight up, we are at this point right here, we go back to the axis. If we go continue on,
this projects down here. We're moving this radius vector around in a circle like this. And actually this one
will be at the same point as before, as the one above, but it'll be on this part of the curve here. And when we get back to zero again, the projection is to this point here. So that's a way to
visualize the cosine curve getting generated by a vector
rotating around this circle. The cosine comes out the bottom because it's the projection on the x-axis, and when we did the sine,
it was the projection on the y-axis, produced the
sine wave when we went this way. So I like to visualize this
because this rotating vector is a really simple and powerful idea, and we can see how it actually generates, it's a way to generate
sine and cosine waves. And you can see how sort of naturally they come out at different phases, right. The sine starts at zero and
the cosine starts at one. With this way of drawing it,
you could see why that happens. So this relationship between circles and rotating vectors and sines and cosines is a very powerful idea. We're really gonna take advantage of this. | 677.169 | 1 |
Describing a Line Offset from a Building
Hello, I am describing an easement, and a portion of it follows a line that is offset 1′ from a building. The excerpt below follows the form I've used in the past, but I'm don't love it and am wondering if anyone has a more succinct method. For example, I've always wondered about prolgations of parallel lines – is a prolongation necessary or does a line parallel with something extend infinitely?
In the screenshot, the red lines are the building and the heavy white line is the easement boundary.
thence leaving said west line and continuing North 89°34'59" West 79.74 feet to a line 1.00 foot east of and parallel with the east face of a building;
thence along said parallel line and the northernly prolongation thereof North 01°57'43" West 7.50 feet to the easterly prolongation of a line 1.00 feet north of and parallel with the north face of said building;
thence with said easterly prolongation and parallel line South 88°22'48" West 10.38 feet to the west line of the aforementioned Lot 4
What you present is good. But, keep it simple AND accurate. Where it gets hairy is when those one-foot offsets obilterate a designed area of the building. Example: A jog inward of less than a foot for a distance along the building of less than two feet. The offset will not match the perimeter of the biulding.
What is the definition of the building? The siding, the trim boards, or the foundation? What happens if they re-side over added foam insulation? What height on the building is the measuring point? Is the building actually square and plumb?
Better to just describe the bearings and distances with reference to clear reproducible monuments. | 677.169 | 1 |
Kite in a Square
Viola from St George's British International School, Rome in Italy sent in this elegant method:
However, Viola has assumed that the vertices of the kite are $\frac12$ and $\frac23$ of the way up the whole square - which might not be true! Zach from Pate's Grammar School in England and Raquel from IES Maximo Laguna in Spain both proved that it is true using coordinates. Below is Raquel's proof that the vertices of the kite are $\frac12$ and $\frac23$
of the way up the whole square:
Raquel used this fact to complete a different elegant method:
Zach also used coordinates, but Zach worked with a square with sides 10 units long, instead of 1 unit long. Zach also used a different method. Zach began by defining some lengths as $X, Y$ and $Z$:
Zach went on to find equations for the lines and line segments. Be careful - sometimes $X$ and $Y$ refer to the coordinates, and sometimes they refer to the lengths defined above.
Rishik K used the three appoaches linked in the problem to compare three different methods. This is Rishik's work:
I enjoyed solving this problem using all the approaches and I believe that they were all smart and interesting methods to work out the shaded area. But I liked the similar figure approach because it was the simplest out of the three and the quote "Mathematics is for lazy people" clearly explains the reason I liked this certain approach | 677.169 | 1 |

Compasses
Compasses are very useful instruments for drawing circles, marking off distances, or for other similar purposes in geometrical and mechanical drawing, architectural drawing, and workshop practice. Essentially, they consist of two points that can be kept at the same distance apart. The ordinary compass satisfies this condition by having two equal arms of brass, German-silver, or other suitable metal pivoted together at one end and pointed at the other. There is generally an arrangement for replacing one of the metal points by a pencil or pen, so that curves, etc., may be drawn in pencil or in ink as required. Beam-compasses admit of much greater distances between the points; the two pointers are separate, and slide along a batten or lath of hard wood. There are numerous other varieties of such instruments, designed for special geometrical purposes. | 677.169 | 1 |
I used the same steps to find the points of X and Y intercept.After finding the X and Y intercept we can apply the distance formula. The distance formula might be a good thing to remember if the points are not right angled triangle
Why did we use Pythagorean Theorem to solve statement 2? If radius is 5 from the origin and (x,y) lie beyond (and are +ve), shouldn't this be enough to conclude on the question?
Hello, I'm also stuck on how a circle with a radius of 5 with a center at 0,0 would not be sufficient evidence for us to prove that x>5? This would answer the target question. Why would we use the Pythagorean Theorem when we know the arc of the circle would go even further than the hypotenuse of the right triangle, with the right angle situated at the origin? A radius of a circle is the same unit distance from the center in every direction. If the radius is 5, that would make the magnitude of any point beyond the circumference greater than 5.
With regards to your example of (4,4), the hypotenuse of the triangle is ±5.6 units distance from y-intercept 4, and x-intercept 4. Aren't we trying to determine the amount of units from the origin, and not the intercepts | 677.169 | 1 |

I could not find any value for MaxCellMeasure that would give four triangles (i.e. both diagonals).$\endgroup$

Find Angle MBC - HackerRank Solution Python
Find Angle MBC is a medium-difficulty problem that involves the use of trigonometry concepts to solve the problem. We will learn how to solve this problem in Python through a step-by-step tutorial in Python3.
Problem Statement and Explanation
Given the length of sides AB and BC of a right triangle ABC, we have to find the angle MBC in degrees. Suppose ABC is a right triangle where the angle ABC is 90 degrees. The angle bisector of angle ABC meets the side AC at point M. We have to find the angle MBC in degrees.
Input Format
The first user input is the length of side AB.
The second user input is the length of side BC.
AB & BC are natural numbers and are between 0 and 100.
Output Format
Print the angle MBC in degrees. Round the angle to the nearest integer.
Find Angle MBC Solution in Python
Explanation of Solution
Step by step explanation of the above code is given below:
The function find_angle_mbc() takes two arguments, ab and bc, which are the lengths of sides AB and BC respectively.
The variable degree stores the angle MBC in degrees.
The line degree = round(math.degrees(math.atan(ab/bc))) calculates the value of the degree by first calculating the arctangent of ab/bc using the math.atan() function. Then, it rounds the result to the nearest integer using the round() function.
The line print(f"{degree}{chr(176)}") prints the value of the degree as a string, with a degree symbol (°) at the end.
Time Complexity of the Solution
The time complexity of the solution is O(1). This is because the function find_angle_mbc() only performs a constant number of operations, regardless of the lengths of sides AB and BC. The only operation that is performed is the math.atan() function, which takes a constant amount of time to execute.
Space Complexity of the Solution
The space complexity of the solution is O(1). This is because the function find_angle_mbc() only uses a constant amount of memory, regardless of the lengths of sides AB and BC. The only variables that are used are ab, bc, and degree, which are all scalars. Scalars are variables that store a single value, such as an integer or a float. They do not require any additional memory beyond the space required to store the value. | 677.169 | 1 |
Conic Sections
NCERT solutions for Class 11 maths Chapter 11 Conic Sections sheds light on the types of curves commonly known as ellipses, parabolas, circles, and hyperbolas. These curves are known as conic sections or conics, which are obtained when a plane intersects with a double-napped right circular cone. Such curves are important in a wide range of applications, such as in the reflectors of flashlights, the study of planetary motion, antenna and telescope design. These NCERT solutions Class 11 maths Chapter 11 aim at providing information about the different types of curves as mentioned above with relevant practical examples.
Various kinds of conic sections are obtained depending on where the intersecting plane with respect to the cone is and what angle it makes with the vertical axis of the cone. This intersection can be at the vertex of the cone or on any other part of the nappe, above or below the vertex. These curves are critical tools for designing applications to explore space as well as study the behavior of atomic particles.

RPythagorean Theorem – A formula used to determine unknown lengths in a right triangle. The sum of the squares of the legs equals the square of the hypotenuse.Using the Pythagorean Theorem in this diagram, we see that x2 + y2 = 12, so x2 + y2 = 1. But, also remember that, in the unit circle, x = cosθ and y = sinθ. Substituting this equality gives us the first Pythagorean Identity: x2 + y2 = 1 or. cos2θ + sin2θ = 1 This identity is usually stated in the form: sin2θ + cos2θ = 1. | 677.169 | 1 |

Evaluation of Determinant of Square Matrix of order 3 by Sarrus Rule
If A = \begin{pmatrix} a_{11} & a_{12} & a_{13}\\ a_{21} & a_{22} & a_{23}\\ a_{31} & a_{32} & a_{33} \end{pmatrix}, then determinant can be formed by enlarging the matrix by adjoining the first two columns of the right and draw lines as shown below parallel and perpendicular to the diagonal.
(vii) If the same multiple of the elements of any row (or column) of a determinant are added to the corresponding elements of any row (or column), then the value of the new determinant remains unchanged.
Since area is a positive quantity, we always take the absolute value of the determinant in (1).
If the area is given, use both positive and negative values of the determinant for calculation.

Physics 109 Homework Problems
Michael Fowler
Before Galileo
Following Thales: recall Thales learned in Egypt how to measure heights by
measuring a shadow, and how to find distances of inaccessible objects by
measuring angles and drawing scale model triangles. I want you to try this on the Grounds. You will need a ruler and a protractor. I
think you should work in groups of two or three, but each of you should write
up the homework by yourself, using notes if you like.
1. (a) Go to the
point across Emmet from the Bookstore Parking Garage, where you'll see lamp
posts like the one pictured below.Find the height of the lamp post by
measuring the length of its shadow (pace it out) and comparing with your own
shadow.
(b) Now look across the pond to the small archway structure (just
visible in the picture above) beyond the pond near the left-hand side. Point a pencil at that arch from two
different points on the Emmet sidewalk, measure the angles and the distance
between the points, draw a scale diagram and deduce how far away the arch is from the Emmet sidewalk.
(c) Now go to the Lawn, the area on the same level as the
Rotunda.The idea is to estimate the height of the Rotunda by drawing the right
triangles. Notice from where I'm
standing when I took this picture, some leaves are in line with the top of the
Rotunda. I could find the
distance from where I'm standing to the base of the Rotunda
(then I need to find what it is to the central point), then the distance from
where I took the picture to the point directly under those leaves, and finally
the height of the leaves. Or, I could
look from ground level at a friend who walks to the point where the top of her
head just blocks out the top of the Rotunda, and figure it from there.
2. Notice now that we
could have found the height of the Rotunda even
if we couldn't get to it: the distance to the Rotunda could have been
determined by measuring angles to it from two different places, like the two
ends of one of the paths going across the Lawn, just as the distance to the
arch was found in the previous exercise. Could the Greeks have found the distance to the Moon in this way? Could we, with present-day technology?
3. How high does the
Sun get in the sky at midday?(The high point is close to 1
pm since we're on EST.)By "how high" I
mean an angle; which I want you to measure, by finding an upright object (like
holding a pencil vertical) and marking off its shadow (easier to do with two of
you!), then drawing a triangle.Or, you
could angle a pencil towards the Sun so it has no shadow, then measure the
angle it is making with the vertical (or horizontal - just be clear which one you
mean in writing this up).
Given that Charlottesville
is 38 degrees from the Equator, what would that angle be on Midsummer's
day?On Midwinter's day? (This is a lot easier to figure out if you
have a globe to look at - try to find one!)
4. Finding the angular size of the moon: choose some
suitable round object, such as a dime, quarter, a tennis ball, ping pong ball
or whatever, and while you are looking at the moon, have your partner hold the
ping pong ball (say) at just the right distance that it looks to you exactly
the same size as the moon. You could try it directly in front of the moon, to
just block it, or side by side with the moon, whatever works best for you. Now,
measure the distance from your eye to the ball, and measure the diameter of the
ball. Given that the moon is 230,000 miles away, figure out the moon's
diameter. What is the angular size of the moon? That is, if you take two
pencils, point one at the bottom of the moon, and one at the top, as seen from
here, what is the angle between them? You can answer in degrees or radians.
(One radian is the angle of a piece of pie having the curved side the same
length as the straight sides.)
5. Find the North Star (Polaris). Now, find how high Polaris
is above the horizon by pointing a pencil directly at Polaris and having your
partner measure the angle between the pencil and a horizontal line running
directly beneath it.
Just after dark, find the Big Dipper, and sketch the Big
Dipper together with Polaris. Three hours later, check them again. Has Polaris
moved? Has the Big Dipper moved? Draw on your sketch how they have moved, if at
all, in the sky.
6. Explain in a sentence or two, together with a simple
diagram of the earth and the sun, why it is warmer in summer than in winter.
7. Some years ago, a
very attractive photograph of the Rotunda viewed from the middle of the
Lawnwas on sale, it was night and the
full Moon was visible quite close to the Rotunda, so the shape of the Rotunda
echoed the Moon. How could you prove
this photo was a fake?
8. You set up base
camp on a bear hunting expedition.You
travel exactly twenty miles south, rest for a meal, then go twenty miles east,
where you shoot a bear. Now you go
twenty miles north and you are back at your base camp. What color was the bear? Give your reasoning.
9. Plato defined a
regular solid as one with every edge the same length, and the same number of
edges meeting at each vertex. Explain in
your own words (but with diagrams) why there can only be five such solids.
10. Prove that the
square root of three cannot be expressed as a ratio of whole numbers. (Hint: remember that any whole number can be
expressed as a product of prime factors. The proof of the square root of two was all about odd and even numbers,
this time concentrate of factors of 3, not 2.)
11. The autumnal
equinox is on September 23 this year. Describe the path of the sun in the sky
on that day, as seen from Charlottesville.
Where, exactly does it rise? Where does it set? What is the angle of its
maximum height in the sky? Use a globe, or imagine one, and draw a
diagram to explain this angle. Now consider Melbourne, Australia,
which happens to be just about as far south of the equator as we are
north. Describe in similar detail the path of the sun through the sky as
seen from Melbourne
on that day. Finally, what is the path of the sun as seen from the South
Pole research station on that day?
12.
In a paragraph or so, summarize the
differences between Plato and Aristotle in their approach to nature.
13.
Explain briefly why there are seasons.
Are there seasons on the equator? Explain. How much do you think the average
high temperature each month varies on the equator? Which months would you expect to be
warmest?Find some city near the equator
and check out your answer.
14. These days, Mars is high in the sky at midnight.
Could Venus ever be high in the sky at midnight? Explain your
answer carefully.
15. On September 21, day and night will have equal length in
Charlottesville.
Where else on earth will that be true on that day? Explain. Where
on earth will the sun be directly overhead at midday on that day?
16. You are in a garden somewhere on earth and you come
across a sundial. Can you tell by looking at the sundial which hemisphere you
are in?
17.
The moon goes round the earth once a
month. Explain briefly why we don't see an eclipse of the sun every month.
Look at: Mars as seen from Earth, Earth as seen from Mars,
Jupiter as seen from Earth, Earth as seen from Jupiter. Draw three concentric circles approximately
representing Earth, Mars and Jupiter.Figure out, from the shadowing you see on the views you looked at, where
the three planets must be in their orbits relative to each other, and indicate
the positions, approximately,on your
orbit diagram.
19. Does the Moon rotate? If yes, how often? Suppose you lived on the Moon, in a base in the
middle of the Moon's face as seen from here. How would the Sun move through your sky? How long between sunrise and
sunset? How would the Earth move through
your sky? Would the appearance of the
Earth change, that is, would it have phases?
20.
Explain with a diagram the orbit of Venus in Ptolemy's model. If Ptolemy had had a telescope, and could see
the phases (shadowing) of Venus, would that have given him any doubts about his
model? Explain why or why not.
21.
Mars in its path through the sky sometimes loops
backwards.
Explain
in your own words why this happens
(a)
using Ptolemy's model, and
(b)
with our present day picture of the Solar System.
22.
Here is a picture of a sundial:
The
rod is parallel to the Earth's axis. Describe carefully how the movement
of the Sun through the sky shows the time on this sundial -- in particular, it
must read 12 one hour after it reads 11, right? Are you sure the
sun's moving in the right direction for this thing to work?
23.
As we went over in class, the chain of transmission of Greek knowledge
ultimately to Europe has some surprising
links.One was the Nestorians, declared
heretic and kicked out of the Roman Empire, from their monastery at Edessa in present day Turkey
(not the Edessa in Macedonia). They were welcomed by the Persians and set up
shop at Gundishapur (or Jundishapur).Some were later given court appointments by the Arab Muslims in Baghdad. Use Google Earth to find out where these
places are, put in place markers, and print off the image. Find the approximate
distances from Edessa to Gundishapur to Baghdad, and state the
approximate dates of these movements.
(a)Standing on the beach, assume your eyes are 2 meters above sea level,
and the sea is very calm. How far away
is the horizon you see?
Hint: draw a circle, representing the
surface of the curving earth, and your eyes are just above the circle -- now draw
a line from your eyes to the furthest point visible on the circle. How does that line relate to the circle? Draw
lines from your eye to the center of the earth, and from the furthest point you
can see to the center of the earth. Take it from there...
How far away is it as seen from your hotel balcony,
your eyes now being 18 meters above sea level?
(c) Suppose you watch the sunset, standing on the beach. As the last bit of the sun's disk just
disappears, you race up to your room and look from the balcony. How fast did you have to get there to see any
of the sun? (let's assume the hotel is on the equator.)
Hint: as the earth turns, seen from above the shadow line between
night and day moves across the ground. How fast is it moving?
26. A simple sundial consists of a circular flat piece of
white paper, and a vertical stick in the middle. Discuss the path traced by the
shadow of the stick at four times in the year: the solstices and the equinoxes,
do it for the equator and for the north pole.
27. Suppose you set up this sundial on the moon. What do you
think the path of the shadow would be?
28. Look at this picture called Earthrise.
How do you think the earth moves through the sky as seen from the moon?
29. There will be an eclipse of the Moon on the (look one up!), at full
Moon. Could there ever be an eclipse of
the Moon when the Moon is only half full? Show the Earth, Moon and Sun on a
diagram to support your argument.
30. (a) Explain, with a diagram, what is meant by the
"Ecliptic". What is the "Zodiac"?
(b) Find from a calendar the dates of the Winter Solstice,
the Summer Solstice, the Spring Equinox and the Autumn Equinox. Draw a sketch
of the Earth's path around the Sun, showing where it is on these four days,
including an indication of the angle between the North Pole-South Pole axis and
the direction to the Sun.
(c) Count the days exactly in the four quarters of the year
between solstices and equinoxes. Are these periods all the same length? Would
you expect them to be? Explain.
31. In November 2006, there was a transit of Mercury, meaning that the planet Mercury went directly
between the Earth and the Sun, looking like a small black dot on the Sun's
surface.The next transit will be in
2009, then ten years after that.
(a) Since Mercury goes once around every 88 days, and its
orbit is between us and the sun, can you explain why these transits are so
infrequent? (Hint: recall our discussion
of why eclipses of the Moon are fairly rare).
(b) Transits of Mercury have been observed for centuries:
they are always in May or November.
Can you suggest an explanation? What's
wrong with the other months?
32. Check your understanding of Archimedes' calculation of
pi by finding what lower bound on the value of pi you can discover by inscribing
first a square, then a regular octagon, in a circle.
Galileo
1. Why were Copernicus' ideas ultimately much more widely
accepted than Aristarchus's very similar ideas?
2. Galileo's measurement
of mountains on the Moon
Suppose that, when the moon is half full, a point of light
can be seen in the dark half, a distance one-twentieth of the diameter of the
moon away from the dark/light boundary. If it is a mountaintop, how high
is the mountain?
3. Galileo showed off
his new telescope to the Doge from the Campanile in Venice, pictured here:
Estimate the distance to the horizon as seen from the
observation point on the Campanile.
(How to do this:
first, come up with some reasonable estimate of the height (clearly not the
full height of the Campanile). Next,
draw a diagram of the Earth, with the campanile and the horizon showing. This should remind you of the diagram for
problem #2 above!)
4. State in your own words Galileo's anti-Aristotle argument
involving uniting two bodies having different "natural speeds".
5. The text below is a direct copy from Galileo's own
introduction to his work on acceleration, one of the most important concepts in
physics.Read it carefully, and then write an explanation in your own words,
including drawing a graph of speed as a function of time for an object falling
from rest.Note: for the word
"momenta" he uses, you can just substitute "speed".
THEOREM I,
PROPOSITION I
The time in which any space is traversed by a body starting
from rest and uniformly accelerated is equal to the time in which that same
space would be traversed by the same body moving at a uniform speed whose value
is the mean of the highest speed and the speed just before acceleration began.
Let us represent by the line AB (see figure below) the time in which the space CD is traversed by a
body which starts from rest at C and is uniformly accelerated; let the final
and highest value of the speed gained during the interval AB be represented by
the line EB, drawn at right angles to AB; draw the line AE, then all lines
drawn from equidistant points on AB and parallel to BE will represent the
increasing values of the speed, beginning with the instant A. Let the point F
bisect the line EB; draw FG parallel to BA, and GA parallel to FB, thus forming
a parallelogram AGFB which will be equal in area to the triangle AEB, since the
side GF bisects the side AE at the point I; for if the parallel lines in the
triangle AEB are extended to GI, then the sum of all the parallels contained in
the quadrilateral is equal to the sum of those contained in the triangle AEB;
for those in the triangle IEF are equal to those contained in the triangle GIA,
while those included in the trapezium AIFB are common. Since each and every
instant of time in the time-interval AB has its corresponding point on the line
AB, from which points parallels drawn in and limited by the triangle AEB
represent the increasing values of the growing velocity, and since parallels
contained within the rectangle represent the values of a speed which is not
increasing, but constant, it appears, in like manner, that the momenta
[momenta] assumed by the moving body may also be represented, in the case of
the accelerated motion, by the increasing parallels of the triangle
AEB,
and, in the case of the uniform motion, by the parallels of the rectangle GB.
For, what the momenta may lack in the first part of the accelerated motion (the
deficiency of the momenta being represented by the parallels of the triangle
AGI) is made up by the momenta represented by the parallels of the triangle
IEF.
Hence it is clear that equal spaces will be traversed in
equal times by two bodies, one of which, starting from rest, moves with a
uniform acceleration, while the momentum of the other, moving with uniform
speed, is one-half its maximum momentum under accelerated motion. Q.E.D.
6. Measure your reaction
time using Galileo's concept of acceleration
If you hold a ruler against a wall, and let it fall,
assuming it's not in contact with the wall, it will pick up speed at a rate of
10 meters per second per second.
(d) Use these results to plot a graph of distance as a
function of time from time 0 to time 0.2 sec.
(Guess the first 0.1 sec. -- remembering it always falls four times as far in twice the time!)
(e) Use your graph and a friend to find your reaction time,
and state what it is. Have several tries and take the average.
7. Galileo's Analysis of Projectile Motion
The above picture represents the flight of a ball thrown
into the air (although air resistance effects have been neglected). The
background grid is in one-foot squares. The blobs represent the position of the
ball at successive quarter-second intervals.
(a) By counting lines, find the average horizontal
velocity of the ball, in feet per second, during the first quarter of a second.
(Remember, each square is one foot across (from side to side or top to bottom),
and average speed = distance/time.)
(b) By reviewing the whole picture, find how the horizontal
velocity (in feet per second) varies throughout the flight.
(c) By counting squares, find the average vertical
velocity of the ball during the first quarter of a second.
(d) Make a table of the ball's average vertical velocity for
all eight quarter-second periods in the flight. Count velocity upwards as
positive, downwards as negative.
(e) Use your results from part (d) to plot a graph of the
ball's vertical velocity (on the y-axis)
as a function of time (on the x-axis)
for the whole flight.
(f) Acceleration is rate of change of velocity. It is
measured here in feet per second per second. Use your graph from (e) to plot a
graph of the vertical acceleration as a function of time for the whole flight.
(g) What can you conclude about the acceleration of the ball
at the topmost point of the path?
(h) Suppose now instead that the ball had been thrown
directly upwards. Would it be accelerating at the topmost point of its flight?
(i) Galileo states in Two New Sciences (page 153): "..so
far as I know, no one has yet pointed out that the distances traversed, during
equal intervals of time, by a body falling from rest, stand to one another in
the same ratio as the odd numbers beginning with unity". (The odd
numbers beginning with unity just means 1, 3, 5, 7, ...). Show how you can
verify this assertion using the picture above. What are the total distances
fallen at the end of each quarter second starting from rest (at the top)?
8. Galileo's
Scaling: an Example
In an experiment on scaling carried out in 1883, a dog of
mass 3 kg. and surface area 2500 sq. cm. was found to need 300 calories a day
to stay alive and warm (no exercise or weight change). Another dog of mass 30
kg. and surface area 10,000 sq. cm. was found to need 1100 calories a day.
(a) Do the calorie requirements correlate better with mass
or surface area? Explain what you would expect. How precise would you expect
the correlation to be?
(b) Make an estimate of your own mass and surface area, and,
assuming you are doglike for purposes of this question, how many calories do
you need a day to stay alive, without exercise and at constant weight?
Kepler's Laws
1. Use the Kepler's Laws applet to put a planet in an
elliptical orbit.
(a) At the planet's nearest point to the sun, the speed
reaches a maximum. Take two points close together on either side of this point,
and draw the two velocity vectors for these points. By finding the change in
velocity between the points, find the direction of the acceleration.
(b) Now do the same thing for the farthest point from the Sun. By watching the applet, how would you say the accelerations at these
two points (nearest and farthest) compare?
(c) Now consider some point halfway or so between these
points. Now speed as well as direction is changing! Try to see in
what direction the acceleration is now.
2. (a) The satellites that transmit TV signals for home dish
reception are all in what are called "geosynchronous" orbits, the satellites go
once around the earth in 24 hours. Why were they placed in those particular
orbits? In other words, how does that help reception of the TV signal?
(b) Use Kepler's
Third Law and what you already know (or can look up) about the moon to predict
the radius of the orbit of a geosynchronous satellite. Compare your
result with the data given at the Kepler's Laws site, and explain any
differences.
(c) To be precise, they actually go around once in 23 hours
and 56 minutes. What's that about?
Newton and Newton's Laws
1. For Newton's cannon shooting
at a low speed, it's clear that the cannonball follows the usual path, accelerating
towards the ground. Explain in your own words how it can be that, at
the right fast speed, shot above the atmosphere, the cannonball will stay at
the same height, and never reach the ground.Make clear whether or not it is accelerating, and in what direction. (It
might help to look at the applet).
2. State Newton's
Second Law.
Suppose you are standing on a spring bathroom scale in an
elevator which is at rest. What is your acceleration? What forces are acting on
you? What is the reading on the bathroom scale?
Suppose now you push the button for a higher floor, and the
elevator begins to move. After three seconds it is going up at a steady one
meter per second. Did you accelerate? Are you still accelerating? How do you
think the reading on the scale will vary as the elevator begins to move then
settles to a steady speed? (Just answer qualitatively - no numbers expected.)
Now imagine disaster - the rope holding the elevator snaps,
there are no safety features, and the elevator plunges down the shaft in free
fall. You avail yourself of this golden opportunity to check Newton's Laws further, since it is unlikely
to be repeated, at least for you personally. You stay calmly on the spring
scale. What does it read?
Read the second selection from Two New Sciences I've
put on the Web until you find a sentence or two relevant to the above disaster
scenario, and explain the connection.
3. If you are sitting at rest on a stool (so your legs are
just hanging) what forces are acting on you? What are the corresponding
Newtonian reaction forces to these forces, and what are they acting on?
4. A sky diver jumps out of a plane and is in free
fall.Air resistance increases with
speed, and her downward velocity approaches a limit of 80 meters per second
(about 160 mph, terminal velocity). After falling at close to this speed for
several seconds, she opens a parachute and her speed quickly drops to about 3
meters per second, and remains the same until she lands.
Plot a graph showing qualitatively
her downward acceleration from the moment she leaves the plane until after
she's landed on the ground. (Qualitatively means you should get the direction
right, and some idea of where the acceleration is large, where it's very large,
and where it's small).
State what forces were acting on her at each stage in the
descent.
5.(a)The figure represents a pendulum (a bob-a small
round weight, on a string) swinging back and forth, assume it is shown at the
furthest point of its swing in each direction and in the middle of the swing. On
the first set, show the velocity vector appropriate to these positions
in the swing, on the lower set of pictures show the acceleration vectors
for the three instants. Don't worry too much about representing the magnitudes,
but think carefully about direction.
(b) Suppose the
string is cut as the pendulum swings through the lowest point. Sketch the path
of the pendulum from before the swing is cut until well after. How does the
velocity of the pendulum the instant before the string is cut compare
with that the instant after? How does the acceleration of the pendulum
the instant before the string is cut compare with that the instant after?
(c) Now suppose instead the string is cut when the pendulum
has reached its furthest point to the right in the swing. Sketch the path of
the pendulum from before the string is cut until well after, and again compare
the velocity and acceleration of the pendulum the instant before the
string is cut with the instant after.

Using Newton's
Law of Gravitation to weigh the Sun and the Galaxy
We've weighed the earth, let's weigh the sun.
We know from Cavendish's experiment, and Newton's Universal
Law of Gravitation, that the force of attraction between the earth and the sun
is GMm/r2, where G is the gravitational
constant, found by Cavendish to be 6.67 x 10-11,
M is the mass of the sun, m the mass of the earth, and r
the distance of the earth from the sun, which is 150,000,000 kilometers. (NOTE:
in the formula for the force, r must be given in meters).
(This force causes the earth to accelerate towards the sun,
that is, it deviates from straight line motion into a circle, just like Newton's cannonball. The
strategy is to find how far it falls below a straight line in one second
and figure out from that what its acceleration towards the sun must be. This
acceleration is caused by the gravitational attraction force, which depends on
the mass of the sun. Newton's
Second Law gives the relation between the acceleration and the force, and
enables us to find the mass of the sun.)
Using the fact that the earth goes around its orbit
completely in one year, find how far the earth travels in one second.
Now, find how far it "falls" below straight line motion in that one
second. (HINT: call the distance it falls x, then write down Pythagoras'
theorem for the usual triangle, and argue that x2 can be
safely neglected. Then it's easy to find x.)
Since the time interval we are taking is just one second,
the distance the earth falls below the straight line in that period must be
equal to its average velocity in that direction (that is, towards the
sun) during the one second. So what is the earth's velocity in that direction
at the end of the one second period?
So what is its acceleration?
Write down Newton's
Second Law for this acceleration, which is caused by the sun's gravitational
attraction, and from it deduce the mass of the sun. Notice that you do
not need to know the mass of the earth - why not?
The solar system is closer to the edge than the middle of
our galaxy (the Milky Way), and is moving in an approximately circular path at
about 250 kilometers per second. The radius of the circle -- the distance to the
center of the galaxy -- is about 30,000 light years, where one light year is the
distance light travels in one year.
Assume the solar system's circular motion about the center
of the galaxy is caused by the gravitational attraction from the other stars in
the galaxy. This attraction turns out to be not too different from what it
would be if we lumped them all together in the middle in one huge mass M. Find this mass by the same method we used to
find the earth's mass and the sun's mass, given G = 6.67 x 10-11.
Assuming the sun is a typical star, estimate how many stars
there are in our galaxy.
(Footnote: it turns out that the gravitational attraction
towards the center is greater than can be accounted for from the number of
stars.There's something else there that
we can't see! There is dark matter, and dark energy... . Nobody understands this very well.)
8. "When I throw a ball upwards, the force of my hand
keeps it going for a while, but then that runs out, gravity takes over, and the
ball begins to fall."
State in your own words what is wrong with the above
statement.
Write a correct description of this sequence of events: in
other words, from the instant your hand begins to move, until the ball is at
rest on the ground, state what forces are acting on the ball, and
qualitatively, what its acceleration is, during each part of the throw.
Reactions to Newton
1. A quote from the
French poet Paul Valéry (1871-1945): "One had to be a Newton to notice that the moon is falling,
when everyone sees that it doesn't fall".
Write a half-page or so explanation of this apparent paradox
for a friend who knows very little science, including brief explanations of the
relevant Newton's
Laws.
2. (a) Find out what Thomas Jefferson thought of Isaac
Newton, and write a couple of sentences or so summarizing TJ's opinion.
(b) Write a few sentences on how the Scientific Revolution
(that is, mainly, the work of Galileo and Newton)
influenced the Founding Fathers and hence the Declaration of Independence,
etc., (if at all).
Einstein and Relativity
1. Draw a diagram showing the orbits of earth, Jupiter and
Io and explain in your own words how Römer found the speed of light by
observing eclipses of Io.
2. Imagine you are in
a ship with a silent engine sailing on a perfectly smooth sea, you are in a
closed room with no window.
(a) How can you tell if the ship, moving in a straight line,
is slowing down? Draw a little diagram
of you sitting on a chair, with the forces on you, and .
(b) How can you tell if the ship, moving at constant speed,
is moving in a circle? Draw a similar
diagram.
(c) Now imagine you don't know the direction of the front of
the ship -- you're just in a featureless cubical room, but you can have various physics-type toys. Do (a) and (b) feel different to you?. Could you distinguish between them
somehow? (Hint: Foucault's Pendulum!)
3. If Galileo's experiment with the two guys with lanterns
were reenacted with lasers, and one person is on the Moon, the other on Earth,
do you think a good estimate of the speed of light could be made?
4. After reading lecture 21, explain how much a clock is
slowed down as seen by you if it's moving relative to you at 80% of the speed
of light, that is at 0.8c, where c =
3x108 meters per second. How long would it take a spaceship moving
at that speed to reach alpha Centauri, 4 light years from here? How much would the astronauts age on the

Hint- Figure is must in such types of questions. We will use a simple definition of trigonometric angles of a right angled triangle along with the data given. Just as in a right angled triangle tangent of an angle is the length of height upon length of the base of the triangle.
Note- In order to solve such kinds of questions related to practical application of heights and distances figures play a major role in easier simplification of the problem. If this question was not solved by figures, it could be very hectic to solve though. Always remember the values of trigonometric functions of some special angles, two of them are mentioned above.

How to Determine Segment Measures in Circles
Circles, one of the most fundamental shapes in geometry, captivate mathematicians and scholars with their simplicity and complexity alike. Among the various aspects of circle geometry, segment measures stand out as a crucial area of study. These measures refer to the lengths or areas of the portions of the circle delineated by chords, arcs, and sometimes tangents. The precise determination of these segment measures not only unveils the inherent relationships within the circle but also forms the bedrock for advanced mathematical explorations. As we venture into this topic, we will encounter principles that govern the measure of these segments, enriching our understanding of the interplay between different elements within the circle.
Step-by-step Guide: Segment Measures
Definitions:
Arc: A continuous piece of the circle.
Arc Measure: The degree measure of an arc, which is the same as the central angle intercepting that arc.
Segment: A region in a circle bounded by a chord and the arc subtended by the chord.
Segment Measure: The area of a segment can be found by subtracting the area of the sector from the area of the triangle formed by the chord and the radii connecting the chord's endpoints to the center. | 677.169 | 1 |
Snowflakes provide wonderful examples of symmetry. It is useful to engage students in examining the various forms of symmetry. There are basically two types of symmetry: • Rotational symmetry (also known as Radial symmetry) • Reflection symmetry (also known as Bilateral, or Mirror symmetry) What is the difference between these two types of symmetry? • Rotational symmetry – You can cut the image in half in more than one direction, and the two halves will appear as mirror images of each other. The object has more than one line of symmetry. Examples: A triangle can be cut along three different axes. A circle can be cut along an infinite number of axes. The two photos below are examples of rotational symmetry. How many lines of symmetry are possible in each?(
Why do Snowflakes have Radial Symmetry Snowflakes are symmetrical because they reflect the internal order of the water molecules as they arrange themselves in the solid state (the process of crystallization). Water molecules in the solid state, such as in ice and snow, form weak bonds (called hydrogen bonds) to one another. These ordered arrangements result in the basic symmetrical, hexagonal shape of the snowflake. In reality, there are many different types of snowflakes (as in the clich¿ that 'no two snowflakes are alike'); this differentiation occurs because each snowflake is a separate crystal that is subject to the specific atmospheric conditions, notably temperature and humidity, under which it is formed. The second question has to do with the way in which snowflakes are formed. The growth of snowflakes (or of any substance changing from a liquid to a solid state) is known as crystallization. During this process, the molecules (in this case, water molecules) align themselves to maximize attractive forces and minimize repulsive ones. As a result, the water molecules arrange themselves in predetermined spaces and in a specific arrangement. This process is much like tiling a floor in accordance with a specific pattern: once the pattern is chosen and the first tiles are placed, then all the other tiles must go in predetermined spaces in order to maintain the pattern of symmetry. Water molecules simply arrange themselves to fit the spaces and maintain symmetry; in this way, the different arms of the snowflake are formed.(

Regular octagon is inscribed in a circle of area Point lies inside the circle so that the region bounded by and the minor arc of the circle has area while the region bounded by and the minor arc of the circle has area There is a positive integer such that the area of the region bounded by and the minor arc of the circle is equal to Find
Solution 1
The actual size of the diagram doesn't matter. To make calculation easier, we discard the original area of the circle, \(1\), and assume the side length of the octagon is \(2\).
Let \(r\) denote the radius of the circle, \(O\) be the center of the circle. Then:
Now, we need to find the "D" shape, the small area enclosed by one side of the octagon and \(\frac{1}{8}\) of the circumference of the circle:
Let \(PU\) be the height of \(\triangle A_1 A_2 P\), \(PV\) be the height of \(\triangle A_3 A_4 P\), \(PW\) be the height of \(\triangle A_6 A_7 P\). From the \(\frac{1}{7}\) and \(\frac{1}{9}\) condition we have
which gives \(PU= \left(\frac{1}{7}-\frac{1}{8}\right) \pi \left(4+ 2\sqrt{2}\right) + \sqrt{2}+1\) and \(PV= \left(\frac{1}{9}-\frac{1}{8}\right) \pi \left(4+ 2\sqrt{2}\right) + \sqrt{2}+1\).
Clearly, \(\triangle XYZ\) is an isosceles right triangle, with right angle at \(X\) and the height with regard to which shall be \(3+2\sqrt2\). Now \(\frac{PU}{\sqrt{2}} + \frac{PV}{\sqrt{2}} + PW = 3+2\sqrt2\) which gives:
The answer should therefore be \(\frac{1}{8}- \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\left(\frac{16}{63}-\frac{16}{64}\right)=\frac{1}{8}- \frac{\sqrt{2}}{504}\). The answer is \(\boxed{504}\).

Solution 2
Instead of considering the actual values of the areas, consider only the changes in the areas that result from moving point from the center of the circle. We will proceed by coordinates. Set the origin at the center of the circle and refer to the following diagram, where the octagon is oriented so as is horizontal (and therefore is vertical). Note that the area bounded by and the arc is fixed, so we only need to consider the relevant triangles.
Define one arbitrary unit as the distance that you need to move from to change the area of by . We can see that was moved down by units to make the area defined by , , and . Similarly, was moved right by to make the area defined by , , and . This means that has coordinates .
Now, we need to consider how this displacement in affected the area defined by , , and . This is equivalent to finding the shortest distance between and the blue line in the diagram (as and the blue line represents while is fixed). Using an isosceles right triangle, one can find the that shortest distance between and this line is . | 677.169 | 1 |

A right angled triangle $ABC$$(\measuredangle C=90^\circ)$ is given with $\measuredangle BAC=\alpha$. The point $O$ lies inside the triangle $ABC$ such that $\measuredangle OAB=\measuredangle OBC=\measuredangle OCA=\varphi$. Show that $\tan\varphi=\sin\alpha\cdot\cos\alpha.$
We can write the RHS of the equality that we are supposed to prove as $$\sin\alpha\cdot\cos\alpha=\dfrac{a}{c}\cdot\dfrac{b}{c}=\dfrac{ab}{c^2}$$
So we can try to show the equality $$\tan\varphi=\dfrac{ab}{c^2}$$
To express $\tan\varphi$ in some way, all I can think of is to include $\measuredangle\varphi$ in a right triangle and then use the definition of tangent of an acute angle. For this purpose, let's draw perps from $O$ to the sides of the triangle $ABC$. Their foots are $H, H_1, H_2$ on $AB,BC$ and $AC$, respectively. Then we have $$\tan\varphi=\dfrac{OH}{AH}=\dfrac{OH_1}{BH_1}=\dfrac{OH_2}{CH_2}$$
This seems pointless. Thank you in advance!
$\begingroup$@Medi the angles are still equal by scaling the whole diagram until $AB=1$. Otherwise you can also write $OB = \frac{\sin\varphi}{\cos\alpha} AB$ and $BC = AB\sin \alpha$, and after cancelling the scaling factor $AB$ the proof would still hold.$\endgroup$
Since $\angle OCB=90^\circ-\phi$, we have that $\angle BOC$ is a right angle, so that by Thales' Theorem, $O$ lies on a semicircle with diameter $\overline{BC}$. Extend $\overline{AO}$ to meet the other semicircle at $A'$, and we have $\angle BA'C$ is a right angle. Also, since $\angle OBC$ and $\angle OA'C$ are inscribed angles subtending the common arc $\stackrel{\frown}{OC}$, they are congruent. This in turn makes $\overline{AB}\parallel\overline{A'C}$, so that $\overline{A'B}$ is perpendicular to both lines; in particular, the segment is congruent to the altitude from $C$ of $\triangle ABC$.
As a result, we can calculate twice the area of the triangle in two ways to get
$$ c\cos A\cdot c \sin A = |AC||BC| = 2\,|\triangle ABC| = |AB||A'B| = c\cdot c\tan\phi \tag{$\star$}$$
which gives the result. $\square$ | 677.169 | 1 |
I do want to review one basic thing, because I see a lot of students making mistakes with this. It's radians and angles.
There are two ways to describe an angle, radians and degrees. There are 360o or 2pi (6.28) radians in a circle.
So if you have an angle of 45o, we multiply by 6.28/360 to find the number of radians.
45o = 0.785radians
OK, you're thinking, this is WAY easy, I'm going to skip the rest of this. But before you do, let me go over one more thing.
!!!!! When you have an equation like this: !!!!!!
y = x + sin x
the first x must be in radians or you'll get the wrong answer. The second term, sin x, of course, will be the same whether you use degrees or radians, provided you tell you calculator which you are using. But the first term will not. OK. You've been warned. | 677.169 | 1 |

Question 8. Find the coordinates of the point which is located : (a) Three units behind the YZ-plane, four units to the right of the XZ-plane and five units above the XY-plane. Solution:
Let the coordinates of the point be (x, y, z).
Since the point is located 3 units behind the YZ- j plane, 4 units to the right of XZ-plane and 5 units , above the XY-plane,
x = -3, y = 4 and z = 5
Hence, coordinates of the required point are (-3, 4, 5)
(b) In the YZ-plane, one unit to the right of the XZ-plane and six units above the XY-plane. Solution:
Let the coordinates of the point be (x, y, z).
Since the point is located in the YZ plane, x = 0. Also, the point is one unit to the right of XZ-plane and six units above the XY-plane.
∴ y = 1, z = 6.
Hence, coordinates of the required point are (0, 1, 6). | 677.169 | 1 |

• the midpoint and perpendicular bisector of a line segment
• the bisector of an angle

• the perpendicular from a point on a line
• a triangle, given three sides (SSS)
find simple loci, both by reasoning and by using ICT, to produce shapes and paths, e.g. an equilateral triangle
This video resource from Teachers TV is filmed at the seaside and raises questions on: construction of a triangle, similar triangles, scale drawing and loci.
A question is posed for each topic, offering a pause point for teachers to hold a freeze frame on screen while students discuss the question. The video is designed for teachers to use with an interactive whiteboard.
This resource contains two packs of SMILE cards containing a number of drawing activities including some requiring students to construct using a ruler, pencil and compass including triangles, angle bisectors, perpendicular bisectors, and drawing Islamic designs.
It is always usefiul to put the mathematics being carried out into some context.
This resource from Defence Dynamics looks at the military's use of constructions.
Students are asked to draw constructions to represent how the military target hostile forces, stressing the importance of accuracy in calculations which consider projected paths. They will need to be able to construct scale drawings, an angle bisector, a perpendicular bisector, a triangle and a variety of loci.
I like, from the activity file, the constructing a running track activity. It requires students to think about how they go about constructing the drawing, needs accurate use of a pair of compasses and is set in a context with which most students are familiar.

Q:
• • • • Choose one kind of triangle to use for a tessellation: equilateral, isosceles, or scalene. Use technology or paper to create six or more congruent copies of your chosen triangle and investigate how the shape tessellates. Use your chosen triangle to create an artwork with tessellations. You can use any sizes, colors, patterns, or art mediums. You can submit a scanned copy, photo, screenshot, or snip of your artwork. Provide the explanation of the math behind your tessellation that the gallery will display next to your artwork. oo oUse the definition of your chosen triangle and what you know about the interior angles of triangles to prove that any version or size of that triangle will tessellate. (Hint: Study the interior angles where the vertices meet in the tessellation.) Include diagrams or other visual models to help explain your proof. Think about how you could extend your work to prove that all triangles tessellate, and share any theories you might have
Accepted Solution
A:
Tessellation is the arrangement of congruent shapes, with no gaps and overlaps. The tessellation artwork (Picture 1) used equilateral triangles, distinguished by two designs.
An equilateral triangle has equal angles which measures 60 degrees. Hence, in this tessellation, the vertex (point where the triangles meet), total angle is 360 degrees. See picture 2 for proof. | 677.169 | 1 |

Power center (geometry)
Summary
In geometry, the power center of three circles, also called the radical center, is the intersection point of the three radical axes of the pairs of circles. If the radical center lies outside of all three circles, then it is the center of the unique circle (the radical circle) that intersects the three given circles orthogonally; the construction of this orthogonal circle corresponds to Monge's problem. This is a special case of the three conics theorem.The three radical axes meet in a single point, the radical center, for the following reason. The radical axis of a pair of circles is defined as the set of points that have equal power h with respect to both circles. For example, for every point P on the radical axis of circles 1 and 2, the powers to each circle are equal, h1 = h2. Similarly, for every point on the radical axis of circles 2 and 3, the powers must be equal, h2 = h3. Therefo | 677.169 | 1 |

How do you find an angle with all sides?
and finally use angles of a triangle add to 180° to find the last angle.
What is the tan rule?
In a right triangle, the tangent of an angle is the length of the opposite side divided by the length of the adjacent side. In any right triangle, the tangent of an angle is the length of the opposite side (O) divided by the length of the adjacent side (A). In a formula, it is written simply as 'tan'.
How do you know when to use law of sines or cosines?
The sine rule is used when we are given either a) two angles and one side, or b) two sides and a non-included angle. The cosine rule is used when we are given either a) three sides or b) two sides and the included angle.
How do you determine if the ambiguous case is given?
The Ambiguous Case of the Law of Sines
See if you are given two sides and the angle not in between (SSA). This is the situation that may have 2 possible answers.
Find the value of the unknown angle.
Once you find the value of your angle, subtract it from 180° to find the possible second angle.
Add the new angle to the original angle.
What are sines and cosinesIs SSS law of cosines?
When you know the values for two or more sides of a triangle, you can use the law of cosines. In the following case, you know all three sides (which is called SSS, or side-side-side, in trigonometry) but none of the angles.
What do you need for law of cosines?
The Law of Cosines states: c2=a2+b2−2ab cosC . This resembles the Pythagorean Theorem except for the third term and if C is a right angle the third term equals 0 because the cosine of 90° is 0 and we get the Pythagorean Theorem. | 677.169 | 1 |
Overview#
The Midpoint Line Algorithm is based on the Bresenham algorithm and is not a
general approach, but a solution for screening lines between a slope of 0 and 1
(0 - 45°). If you draw a line in computer graphics, you are limited to the
amount of pixel you can use. For example, a simple line could be realized in
several different pixel arrangements
Original Representation#
Interpretation#
Another interpretation#
And these are just two of many possible solutions of creating the line.
So, besides the problem that we usually can't solve algorithmic problems
graphically, we need a rule that tells us which pixels should be drawn and which
not. The midpoint line algorithm does this in two steps:
Calculate the mid of two given pixels
Evaluate if the line that should be drawn is below or above that mid
If the line crosses above the mid the northeast (NE) pixel of the midpoint
will be inked
if the line crosses below the mid, the east (E) pixel of the midpoint will
be inked
As you see in this example, the mid between A (3 | 1) and B (3 | 2) is M (3 | 1.5). And the line we want to draw crosses above this midpoint. Thereby we
can ink the pixel north-east of the midpoint.
Mathematical basics#
As you now should understand the problem and the suggested solution, we jump
right into the mathematical basics for implementing this algorithm. This section
should cover anything new for you; it's merely a reminder and a mutual
definition of terms.
Linear function#
Whereas x and y are the corresponding x and y-coordinates in our
euclidean grid, m is our slope coefficient, and b our y-intercept.
Slope Coefficient#
Next we need a way to calculate the slope coefficient m we achieve that
by:
Whereas Δy describes the y-difference and Δx the x-difference.
Given these basics, we may now determine the linear function for the given
example. As we want to draw the line between A (1 | 1) and B (9 | 4), we the
following slope coefficient:
This alters our original definition of the linear function:
y-Intercept#
To calculate the y-intercept, we need to rearrange the equation to b and
insert any point on the line.
Using the start point (1 | 1) we get b = 5/8:
Which finally, leads us to the linear function of
for our specific example.
Calculating the Midpoint#
To calculate the midpoint of two points in a vertical line in the grid, we take
their x value (both points got the same value for x) and calculate the y value
by calculating their mean value.
Given these conventions, we may calculate the midpoint of given coordinates A = (x | y) and B = (x | y+1) by:
As the y-difference between these two points always is 1, the formula can
further be simplified as:
Determining a Midpoints Relative Position#
All that is left now is to evaluate either a given line crosses above or below
the calculated midpoint. To do so, we need the y-difference between the
midpoint and the line at specific x-coordinates.
This, in turn, can be achieved by merely calculating the difference between the
y-value of the midpoint and the y-value of the line. To ease things further,
we take the linear function and rewrite it to the implicit form:
For each point that belongs to our original linear function
This formula will return 0. For each point below our line, the function will
return a positive value, and for each point above the line, the function
will return a negative value. So we can easily evaluate if a calculated
midpoint is:
above the line → the line crosses below the midpoint and E will be inked
below the line → the line crosses above the midpoint and NE will be inked
By convention, we call the return value of our function f(x,y) the decision
parameterd as it decides which pixel will be inked. To make things even
clearer we can fill in the values we already know into the abstract function:
xi and yi are specific values, whereas Δx and Δy belong to the original
function. So if we test this for a point A = (1, 1) on the line, we get:
Formulate the Algorithm#
Given you understood the mathematical basics, you should now be able to
formulate an algorithmic approach to solve the problem of drawing pixels.
To ease things, I will start by defining simple classes that describe points and
linear functions in the scope we require.
classPoint:
def__init__(self, x, y):
self.x = x
self.y = y
defget_midpoint(self):
return Point(self.x, self.y +0.5)
def__repr__(self):
returnf'({self.x} | {self.y})'
As you can see, I implemented a method get_midpoint() that returns the midpoint of the current coordinates and the same point in which the y-coordinatehas been incremented by 1. And arepr-function that alters the way the object is
returned as a string.
The LinearFunction class got a pseudo-private method _calculate_b() that
calculates the y-intercept. If you read our meaningful names article, you
might protest now that calculatey_intercept() might be a better name. And this
is indeed a point; the name might be useless to someone defining linear
functions with different variable names. However, next, we got a function
point is_below() that implements the part from the implicit form of the
"Determining a Midpoints Relative Position"-section. It returns True if a given
point is below the line that is created by its function. And that's it. That's
all we need to run the algorithm. Let's bring all this together with a
MidpointLineAlgorithm-class.
classMidpointLineAlgorithm:
def__init__(self, linear_function: LinearFunction):
self.linear_function = linear_function
defrun(self):
points =list()
iterations = linear_function.delta_x
y = linear_function.start.y
x = linear_function.start.x
for x_i inrange(iterations):
current_point = Point(x + x_i, y)
current_mid_point = current_point.get_midpoint()
if linear_function.point_is_below(current_mid_point):
points.append((current_point,"East"))
else:
points.append((current_point,"Northeast"))
y +=1
return points
The Algorithm is initialized with a linear function. The number of iterations we
need corresponds to the number of steps we can do or simply Δx of our linear
function. Additionally, we need a starting point; we simply choose the first
point ((1 | 1) in our specific case).
The point of interest is in each step defined by the initial x-value and the
current iteration (x + xi), and the current y. Here's the only new thing:
each time the algorithm decides we go northeast, we have to increment y as it
only increases if we switch lines. So y is determined by the initial y plus
the times we went northeast.
Summary#
I hope you could grasp the functionality of the midpoint line algorithm and
understood why and how the mathematical concepts are used to let it work
properly. If there is anything left unclear, please don't hesitate to comment,
and I will try to come back to you or adjust the post as soon as possible. Happy

Conversely. If the two lines be AB, CD, which touch the circumference, and if, at the same time, the intercepted arcs EJF, EKF are equal, EF must be a diameter (Th. 1. 3.); and therefore AB, CD (Cor. 3. Th. 16. 3.), are parallel.
But if only one of the lines, as AB, touch, while the other, GH, cuts the circumference, making the arcs EG, EH equal; then the diameter FE, which bisects the arc GEH, is perpendicular (Schol. Th. 13. 3.) to its chord GH: it is also perpendicular to the tangent AB; therefore AB, GH are parallel.
If both lines cut the circle, as GH, JK, and intercept equal arcs GJ, HK; let the diameter FE bisect one of the chords, as GH: it will also bisect the arc GEH, so that EG is equal to EH; and since GJ is (by hyp.) equal to HK, the whole arc EJ is equal to the whole arc EK; therefore the chord JK is bisected by the diameter FE: hence, as both chords are bisected by the diameter FÈ, they are perpendicular to it; that is, they are parallel (Cor. Th. 20. 1.).
SCHOLIUM.
The restriction in the enunciation of the converse proposition, namely, that the lines do not cut each other within the circle, is necessary; for lines drawn through the points G, K, and J, H, will intercept equal arcs GJ, HK, and yet not be parallel, since they will intersect each other within the circle.
PROP. XVIII. THEOR.
If a straight line touch a circle, the straight line drawn from the centre to the point of contact, is perpendicular to the line touching the circle.
A
Let the straight line DE touch the circle ABC in the point C; take tne centre F, and draw the straight line FC: FC is perpendicular to DE. For, if it be not, from the point F draw FBG perpendicular to DE; and because FGC is a right angle, GCF must be (10. 1.) an acute angle; and to the greater angle the greater (12. 1.) side is opposite: Therefore FC is greater than FG; but FC is equal to FB; therefore FB is greater than FG, the less than the greater, which is impossible; wherefore FG is not perpendicular to DE: In the same manner it may be shewn, that no other line but FC can be perpendicular to DE; FC is therefore perpendicular to DE.

If a straight line touch a circle, and from the point of contact a straight line be drawn at right angles to the touching line, the centre of the circle is in that line.
Let the straight line DE touch the circle ABC, in C, and from C let CA be drawn at right angles to DE; the centre of the circle is in CA.
For, if not, let F be the centre, if possible, and join CF. Because DE touches the circle ABC, and FC is drawn from the centre to the point of contact, FC is perpendicular (18. 3.) to DE; therefore FCE is a right angle; But ACE is also a right angle; therefore the angle FCE is equal to the angle ACE, the less to the greater, which is impossible; Wherefore F is not the centre of the circle ABC: In the same manner it may be shewn, that no other point which is not in CA, is the centre; that is, the centre is in CA.

Let ABC be a circle, and BDC an angle at the centre, and BAC an angle at the circumference which have the same arc BC for the base; the angle BDC is double of the angle BAC.
First, let D, the centre of the circle, be within the angle BAC, and join AD, and produce it to E: Because DA is equal to DB, the angle DAB is equal (3. 1.) to the angle DBA: therefore the angles DAB, DBA together are double of the angle DAB; but the angle BDE is equal (25. 1.) to the angles DAB, DBA; therefore also the angle BDE is double of the angle DAB; For the same reason, the angle EDC is double of the angle DAC: Therefore the whole angle BDC is double of the whole angle BAC.
Again, let D, the centre of the circle, be without the angle BAC; and join AD and produce it to E. It may be demonstrated, as in the first case, that the angle EDC is double of the angle DAC, and that EDB, a part of the first, is double of DAB, a part of the other; therefore the remaining angle BDC is double of the remaining angle BAC.

The angles in the same segment of a circle are equal to one another.
Let ABCD be a circle, and BAD, BED angles in the same segment BAED: The angles BAD, BED are equal to one another.
Take F the centre of the circle ABCD: And, first, let the segment BAED be greater than a semicircle, and join BF, FD: And because the angle BFD is at the centre, and the angle BAD at the circumference, both having the same part of the circumference, viz. BCD, for their base; therefore the angle BFD is double (20. 3.) of the angle BAD: for the same reason, the angle BFD is double of the angle BED: Therefore the angle BAD is equal to the angle BED.
But, if the segment BAED be not greater than a semicircle, let BAD, BED be angles in it; these also are equal to one another. Draw AF to the centre, and produce it to C, and join CE: Therefore the segment BADC is greater than a semicircle; and the angles in it, BAC, BEC are equal, by the first case: For the same reason, because CBED is greater than a semicircle, the angles CAD, CED are equal; Therefore the whole angle BAD is equal to the whole angle BED.

The opposite angles of any quadrilateral figure inscribed in a circle, are together equal to two right angles.
D
Let ABCD be a quadrilateral figure in the circle ABCD; any two of its opposite angles are together equal to two right angles. Join AC, BD. The angle CAB is equal (21. 3.) to the angle CDB, because they are in the same segment BADC, and the angle ACB is equal to the angle ADB, because they are in the same segment ADCB; therefore the whole angle ADC is equal to the angles CAB, ACB: To each of these equals add the angle ABC; and the angles ABC, A ADC, are equal to the angles ABC, CAB, BCA. But ABC, CAB, BCA are equal to
two right angles (25. 1.); therefore also the

angles ABC, ADC are equal to two right angles; In the same manner, the angles BAD, DCB may be shewn to be equal to two right angles.

If it be possible, let the two similar segments of circles viz. ACB, ADB, upon the same side of the same straight line AB, not coinciding with one another; then, because the circles ACB, ADB, cut one another in the two points A, B, they cannot cut one another in any other point (10. 3.): one of the segments must therefore fall within the other: let ACB fall within ADB, draw the straight line BCD, and join CA, DA; and because the segment ACB is similar to the segment ADB, and similar segments of circles contain (12. def. 3.) equal angles, the angles ACB is equal to the angle ADB, the exterior to the interior, which is impossible (16. 1.)

In equal circles, equal angles stand upon equal arcs, whether they be at the centres or circumferences.
Let ABC, DEF be equal circles, and the equal angles BGC, EHF at their centres, and BAC, EDF at their circumferences: the arc BKC is equal to the arc ELF.
Join BC, EF; and because the circles ABC, DEF are equal, the straight
lines drawn from their centres are equal; therefore the two sides BG, GC, are equal to the two EH, HF; and the angle at G is equal to the angle at H; therefore the base BC is equal (1. 1.) to the base EF: and because
the angle at A is equal to the angle at D, the segment BAC is similar (12. def. 3.) to the segment EDF; and they are upon equal straight lines BC, EF; but similar segments of circles upon equal straight lines are equal (24. 3.) to one another, therefore the segment BAC is equal to the segment EDF: but the whole circle ABC is equal to the whole DEF; therefore the remaining segment BKC is equal to the remaining segment ELF, and the arc BKC to the arc ELF.

In equal circles, the angles which stand upon equal arcs are equal to one another, whether they be at the centres or circumferences.
Let the angles BGC, EHF at the centres, and BAC, EDF at the circumferences of the equal circles ABC, DEF, stand upon the equal arcs BC, EF: the angle BGC is equal to the angle EHF, and the angle BAC to the angle EDF.
If the angle BGC be equal to the angle EHF, it is manifest (20. 3.) that the angle BAC is also equal to EDF. But, if not, one of them is the greater let BGC be the greater, and at the point G, in the straight line BG, make the angle (Prob. 9. 1.) BGK equal to the angle EHF. And because equal angles stand upon equal arcs (25. 3.), when they are at the centre, the arc BK is equal to the arc EF: but FF is equal to BC; therefore also BK is equal to BC, the less to the greater, which is impossible.

chords are congruent then their respective arcs are_____________.
Congruent
Not equal
According to situation
None of these
Hint:
A circle is a two- dimensional figure which is made up of dots which are in a fixed distance from each other. In a circle we have radius, diameter, chord, sector and segment. It is a closed figure with no corner and no sides. Chord is a line segment joining any two points on the boundary of the circle. Here, we have to fill the blank space.
The correct answer is: Congruent
In the question it is given that If two chords are congruent then their respective arcs are_____________. Here, we have to fill the blank. In a circle if two chords are congruent then their respective arcs will be congruent to each other. So, if two chords are congruent then their respective arcs are congruent. Therefore, the correct option is a, i.e., congruent.
Two figures are said to be congruent if they are identical to each other or they superimpose on each other completely. In a circle two chords will be congruent only if their lengths are equal | 677.169 | 1 |

How are optical illusions related to math?
When circles are finally squared. There is a mathematical side to optical illusions. You may have heard the saying, "you can't square a circle", which is essentially metaphor for trying to do the impossible.
How are optical illusions classified?
According to that, there are three main classes: physical, physiological, and cognitive illusions, and in each class there are four kinds: Ambiguities, distortions, paradoxes, and fictions. Cognitive visual illusions are the result of unconscious inferences and are perhaps those most widely known.
What role does geometry play in optical art?
Today, artists often use geometrical elements such as lines, angles, and shapes to create a theme throughout their artwork. Also, artists started using these geometrical elements as a way to create the illusion of the third dimension. This art is known as Optical or Op Art.
What is optical illusion in physics?
Optical illusions use light, colors and other features to trick the mind. There are various reasons due to which we see an optical illusion and foremost among them is the physical one. On physical bases, an afterimage is an apt example of optical illusion. Afterimages occur when you look at bright colors for too long.
What is illusion math?
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Geometrical-optical illusions are visual illusions, also optical illusions, in which the geometrical properties of what is seen differ from those of the corresponding objects in the visual field.
What is geometrical illusion Class 11?
By. a figure made of straight or curved lines in which the lines or their interrelationships are misinterpreted by the visual system.
What is illusion Slideshare?
An Illusion is a distortion of the senses, how the brain normally organizes and interprets sensory stimulation.
Are mirrors optical illusions?
You can perform a number of optical illusions using mirrors. This illusion works because our eyes and brains tell us that the reflection of the leg in front of the mirror is actually the leg behind the mirror. When you lift the leg in front of the mirror, the reflected leg also lifts.
What are geometrical illusions Class 11?
By. a figure made of straight or curved lines in which the lines or their interrelationships are misinterpreted by the visual system. An example is the ZOLLNER ILLUSION. GEOMETRICAL ILLUSION: "A geometric illusion is a visual illusion."
What are illusions State different types of illusions Class 11?
Illusions distort one's senses. Most illusions tend to deceive the eyes, ears and skin, while there are some illusions that may distort perception due to changes in internal body structures. The three main types of illusion include optical illusions, auditory illusions, and tactile illusions | 677.169 | 1 |

So if you're ready to explore the world of triangles and quadrilaterals, read on!Definition of Triangles & Quadrilaterals A triangle is a three-sided polygon, with three angles enclosed. It can be either equilateral, with all sides and angles equal, or isosceles, with two sides and two angles equal. A quadrilateral is a four-sided polygon, with four angles enclosed.
It can be a square, with all sides and angles equal; a rectangle, with two pairs of parallel sides; or a parallelogram, with opposite sides parallel.
Properties of Triangles & Quadrilaterals
The properties of triangles and quadrilaterals are determined by the lengths of their sides and angles. The sum of the lengths of the sides of a triangle is equal to the circumference of its circumscribed circle. The sum of the angles in a triangle is equal to 180°. The sum of the angles in a quadrilateral is equal to 360°.
Additionally, the opposite sides of a quadrilateral are equal in length.
Types of Triangles & Quadrilaterals
The types of triangles are classified based on their angles and sides. An equilateral triangle has all three angles and sides equal. An isosceles triangle has two angles and sides equal. The scalene triangle has all three angles and sides different.
Similarly, the types of quadrilaterals are classified based on their angles and sides. A square has four equal sides and four right angles. A rectangle has two pairs of parallel sides and four right angles. A parallelogram has two pairs of parallel sides, but no right angles.
Examples of Triangles & Quadrilaterals
An example of an equilateral triangle is a regular triangle with all three sides and angles equal.
An example of an isosceles triangle is an acute triangle with two sides and two angles equal. An example of a scalene triangle is an obtuse triangle with all three angles and sides different. An example of a square is a square with four equal sides and four right angles. An example of a rectangle is a rectangle with two pairs of parallel sides and four right angles.
Finally, an example of a parallelogram is a rhombus with two pairs of parallel sides but no right angles.
Definition of Triangles & Quadrilaterals
Triangles and quadrilaterals are two of the most common shapes in geometry. A triangle is defined as a shape with three sides and three angles, while a quadrilateral is a four-sided shape with four angles. The interior angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees, while the interior angles of a quadrilateral add up to 360 degrees. This is due to the fact that the sum of the angles in any convex polygon (a polygon with no curves or angles pointing outwards) will always equal 360 degrees.
Triangles and quadrilaterals can come in many different forms, such as isosceles, equilateral, and scalene triangles, or parallelograms, rectangles, rhombuses, and squares. No matter what type of triangle or quadrilateral it is, they will all have the same number of sides and angles.
Properties of Triangles & Quadrilaterals
The properties of triangles and quadrilaterals are important to understand when studying geometry. Triangles have three sides and three angles, while quadrilaterals have four sides and four angles.
The different types of angles in these shapes are acute, right, and obtuse. When it comes to the sides, the length and size of the sides will affect how the angles are formed. Additionally, the sides can be used to calculate the area and perimeter of each shape. In triangles, the sum of all angles is always 180°. The sides of a triangle will also follow the Pythagorean Theorem, which states that the square of the length of the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
This means that if one side is longer than another side, then the angle opposite it will be greater than the angle opposite the shorter side. In quadrilaterals, the sum of all angles is 360°. The properties of these shapes are dependent on their type. For example, if a quadrilateral is a square or a rectangle, then its angles will be all right angles. Additionally, squares and rectangles also have opposite sides that are equal in length. By understanding these properties of triangles and quadrilaterals, you can identify different types of shapes and use them to calculate area and perimeter.
This knowledge can be used in various areas such as construction and design.
Examples of Triangles & Quadrilaterals
Triangles and quadrilaterals come in many shapes and sizes. In this section, we'll take a look at some common examples of these shapes.
Triangles
The most common type of triangle is the equilateral triangle, which has all three sides of equal length. It also has three interior angles that are all equal to 60 degrees.
Another type of triangle is the isosceles triangle, which has two sides of equal length and two interior angles that are equal in measure. The third type of triangle is the scalene triangle, which has no sides of equal length and three angles that are all different sizes.
Quadrilaterals
The most common type of quadrilateral is the square, which has four sides of equal length and four interior angles that are all 90 degrees. Another type of quadrilateral is the rectangle, which has four sides of varying lengths and four interior angles that are all 90 degrees. The third type of quadrilateral is the rhombus, which has four sides of equal length and four interior angles that are all different sizes. These examples can be used to help understand the various properties associated with triangles and quadrilaterals.
For instance, the number of sides and angles associated with each shape can be easily identified from the examples given above.
Types of Triangles & Quadrilaterals
Triangles and quadrilaterals are two of the most common shapes in geometry. There are different types of triangles and quadrilaterals that can be identified, each with its own unique characteristics. The most common types of triangles include equilateral, isosceles, and scalene triangles. An equilateral triangle has all three sides equal in length, while an isosceles triangle has two sides equal in length and one side that is different.
A scalene triangle is a triangle with all three sides unequal in length. The most common types of quadrilaterals are parallelograms, trapezoids, rhombuses, rectangles, and squares. A parallelogram is a four-sided shape with two pairs of parallel sides. A trapezoid is a four-sided shape with one pair of parallel sides and two non-parallel sides.
A rhombus is a four-sided shape with all four sides equal in length. A rectangle is a four-sided shape with two pairs of parallel sides and all four angles measuring 90 degrees. A square is a four-sided shape with all four sides equal in length and all four angles measuring 90 degrees. In summary, triangles are three-sided shapes that can be classified as equilateral, isosceles, or scalene depending on the lengths of their sides.
Quadrilaterals are four-sided shapes that can be classified as parallelograms, trapezoids, rhombuses, rectangles, or squares depending on the lengths of their sides and the measure of their angles. In conclusion, triangles and quadrilaterals are two essential shapes in geometry, with unique properties and characteristics. Understanding these shapes is essential for success in mathematics, as it allows us to identify them, calculate their area and perimeter, and differentiate between types. Through this article, we have explored the definition, properties, types and examples of both triangles and quadrilaterals, providing a comprehensive overview of both shapes | 677.169 | 1 |

Overall displacement vector from a walking trip....
In summary, the conversation discusses a problem involving walking in different directions and distances. It also mentions the need to choose a coordinate system and how to express the x and y components of displacement. The conversation also includes questions about the magnitude and angle of the displacement vector. The conversation also mentions confusion about whether the problem involves a triangle and the use of trigonometry functions.

I was able to do a few print screens of the homework problem. As you can see I do not need the answer. I have already tried for 2 days and given up so I only received 50% credit for the problem. I want to know how to solve this problem for when it arrives again. I lucked up on the first 2 questions but only because I used the feedback given.

You seem to be assuming that the trip ends back at the starting point. Given the questions, that is hardly likely.

You seem to be assuming that the trip ends back at the starting point. Given the questions, that is hardly likelyYou are asked to find the final x displacement. Each of the three legs makes a contribution to that. Can you find those contributions?Each "leg" of your trip forms a vector (since it has a length and a direction). If you look from the start to the end of the vector AB for the first leg, you go ##x## units in the easterly direction and ##y## units in the northerly direction, so that single portion of the trip can be thought of as a kind of triangle: it has a base ##x## an height ##y##, and a 90 degree turn from east to north. In fact, if you walked due east by ##x## units and then due north by ##y## units, you would end up in exactly the same place as in the first leg of the trip. The hypotenuse of your little triangle is, of course, the actual leg of the trip, going off at a certain angle for a certain distance. (Note that if ##y< 0## you go ##-|y|## units north, which is actually ##+|y|## units south. Similarly, a negative easterly step is actually a positive step in the westerly direction.)
Following that you go along another leg of your trip and so you have another vector and hence have another triangle. If you had stopped at a 2-leg trip (AB then BC) you would, indeed get a true triangle ABC whose sides are the first leg AB, the second leg BC and the total vector CA from finish to start.
However, that is NOT what you have: your trip contains a third leg CD, so now the figure ABCDA is a quadrilateral, not a triangle. (If you had made a fourth leg DE your "figure" ABCDEA would now be 5-sided, a kind of pentagon, etc.)
Anyway, for your 3-leg trip, you need to figure out the total displacement you make in the east ##(+x)## direction and the total displacement you make in the north ##(+y)## direction. That will tell you the final position after the third leg of your journey. From that you can figure out how far you are from your starting point, and what would be the angle from the start to the final point.

I have posted a photo of what I tried again with creating triangles and I still can't come up with the answer that they have. What am I doing wrong?
Thank you so much for this diagram. I kept drawing the wrong triangles which made it impossible to get the right answers. Now that I had the right triangles, I could solve the problem without any issues.

Related to Overall displacement vector from a walking trip....
1. What is overall displacement vector from a walking trip?
The overall displacement vector from a walking trip is the measurement of the net distance and direction traveled from the starting point to the ending point.
2. How is overall displacement vector calculated?
Overall displacement vector is calculated by finding the difference between the final position and the initial position. This can be done by subtracting the initial position vector from the final position vector.
3. Why is overall displacement vector important?
Overall displacement vector is important because it gives a more accurate representation of the distance and direction traveled during a walking trip, taking into account any changes in direction or backtracking that may have occurred.
4. Is overall displacement vector affected by the path taken during the walking trip?
Yes, the overall displacement vector is affected by the path taken during the walking trip. It takes into account the distance and direction of all movements, whether it is a straight path or a zigzagging one.
5. How does overall displacement vector differ from total distance traveled?
Overall displacement vector differs from total distance traveled because it takes into account the direction of movement, while total distance traveled only considers the magnitude or length of the path taken. | 677.169 | 1 |
