The Bernoulli inequality states (1+x)^n>1+nx, (1) where x>-1!=0 is a real number and n>1 an integer. This inequality can be proven by taking a Maclaurin series of (1+x)^n, ...

For c<1, x^c<1+c(x-1). For c>1, x^c>1+c(x-1).

Let Omega be an open, bounded, and connected subset of R^d for some d and let dx denote d-dimensional Lebesgue measure on R^d. In functional analysis, the Friedrichs ...

Let x and y be vectors. Then the triangle inequality is given by |x|-|y|<=|x+y|<=|x|+|y|. (1) Equivalently, for complex numbers z_1 and z_2, ...

The inequality (j+1)a_j+a_i>=(j+1)i, which is satisfied by all A-sequences.

For 0<=x<=pi/2, 2/pix<=sinx<=x.

For b>a>0, 1/b<(lnb-lna)/(b-a)<1/a.

An inequality is strict if replacing any "less than" and "greater than" signs with equal signs never gives a true expression. For example, a<=b is not strict, whereas a<b is.

Apply Markov's inequality with a=k^2 to obtain P[(x-mu)^2>=k^2]<=(<(x-mu)^2>)/(k^2)=(sigma^2)/(k^2). (1) Therefore, if a random variable x has a finite mean mu and finite ...

The Euler triangle formula states that the distance d between the incenter and circumcenter of a triangle is given by d^2=R(R-2r), where R is the circumradius and r is the ...
