The stomachion is a 14-piece dissection puzzle similar to tangrams. It is described in fragmentary manuscripts attributed to Archimedes as noted by Magnus Ausonius (310-395 ...

The circle through the cusp of the arbelos and the tangent points of the first Pappus circle, which is congruent to the two Archimedes' circles. If AB=r and AC=1, then the ...

The Doppler spiral is the curve obtained from an Archimedes' spiral which is translated horizontally with speed k. It has parametric equations x(t) = a(tcost+kt) (1) y(t) = ...

A geometry in which Archimedes' axiom does not hold.

An Archimedean spiral is a spiral with polar equation r=atheta^(1/n), (1) where r is the radial distance, theta is the polar angle, and n is a constant which determines how ...

An Archimedean circle is a circle defined in the arbelos in a natural way and congruent to Archimedes' circles, i.e., having radius rho=1/2r(1-r) for an arbelos with outer ...

The term "arbelos" means shoemaker's knife in Greek, and this term is applied to the shaded area in the above figure which resembles the blade of a knife used by ancient ...

Let {f_n} and {a_n} be sequences with f_n>=f_(n+1)>0 for n=1, 2, ..., then |sum_(n=1)^ma_nf_n|<=Af_1, where A=max{|a_1|,|a_1+a_2|,...,|a_1+a_2+...+a_m|}.

If f is continuous on a closed interval [a,b], then there is at least one number x^* in [a,b] such that int_a^bf(x)dx=f(x^*)(b-a). The average value of the function (f^_) on ...

The number q in a fraction p/q.
