Let a, b, and c be the lengths of the legs of a triangle opposite angles A, B, and C. Then the law of sines states that a/(sinA)=b/(sinB)=c/(sinC)=2R, (1) where R is the ...

Let a triangle have sides of length a, b, and c and let the angles opposite these sides be denoted A, B, and C. The law of tangents states ...

Multivariate analysis is the simultaneous statistical consideration of relationships among many measured properties of a given system (Gould 1996, p. 42).

An Abelian integral, are also called a hyperelliptic integral, is an integral of the form int_0^x(dt)/(sqrt(R(t))), where R(t) is a polynomial of degree >4.

The orthogonal polynomials on the interval [-1,1] associated with the weighting functions w(x) = (1-x^2)^(-1/2) (1) w(x) = (1-x^2)^(1/2) (2) w(x) = sqrt((1-x)/(1+x)), (3) ...

Every continuous map f:S^n->R^n must identify a pair of antipodal points.

A map f between topological spaces that maps closed sets to closed sets. If f is bijective, then f is closed <==>f is open <==>f^(-1) is continuous, where f^(-1) denotes the ...

Given a Jacobi amplitude phi in an elliptic integral, the argument u is defined by the relation phi=am(u,k). It is related to the elliptic integral of the first kind F(u,k) ...

A parameter n used to specify an elliptic integral of the third kind Pi(n;phi,k).

An alternative name for an associated Legendre polynomial.
