Confocal conics are conic sections sharing a common focus. Any two confocal central conics are orthogonal (Ogilvy 1990, p. 77).

For a countable set of n disjoint events E_1, E_2, ..., E_n P( union _(i=1)^nE_i)=sum_(i=1)^nP(E_i).

A cube 9-compound can be constructed from the vertices of the first dodecahedron 2-compound. It will be implemented in a future version of the Wolfram Language as ...

The slicing of a three-dimensional object by a plane (or more general slice).

The n-cyclohedron, also known as the Bott-Taubes polytope, is defined as the compactification of the configuration space of n points on the circle. The cyclohedron can be ...

The radial curve of the cycloid with parametric equations x = a(t-sint) (1) y = a(1-cost) (2) is the circle x_r = x_0+2asint (3) y_r = -2a+y_0+2acost. (4)

Series expansions of the parabolic cylinder functions U(a,x) and W(a,x). The formulas can be found in Abramowitz and Stegun (1972).

A formal structure for the organization of information. Examples of data structures include the list, queue, stack, and tree.

A decagon is a ten-sided polygon. Several special types of decagons are illustrated above. In particular, a decagon with vertices equally spaced around a circle and with all ...
