Am octagonal prims is a prism composed of octagonal faces. The regular right octagonal prism of unit edge length has surface area and volume S = 4(3+sqrt(2)) (1) V = ...

A linear transformation x_1^' = a_(11)x_1+a_(12)x_2+a_(13)x_3 (1) x_2^' = a_(21)x_1+a_(22)x_2+a_(23)x_3 (2) x_3^' = a_(31)x_1+a_(32)x_2+a_(33)x_3, (3) is said to be an ...

Assume that n numbered pancakes are stacked, and that a spatula can be used to reverse the order of the top k pancakes for 2<=k<=n. Then the pancake sorting problem asks how ...

Given a parabola with parametric equations x = at^2 (1) y = at, (2) the evolute is given by x_e = 1/2a(1+6t^2) (3) y_e = -4at^3. (4) Eliminating x and y gives the implicit ...

A partial differential equation of second-order, i.e., one of the form Au_(xx)+2Bu_(xy)+Cu_(yy)+Du_x+Eu_y+F=0, (1) is called parabolic if the matrix Z=[A B; B C] (2) ...

Let (xi_1,xi_2) be a locally Euclidean coordinate system. Then ds^2=dxi_1^2+dxi_2^2. (1) Now plug in dxi_1=(partialxi_1)/(partialx_1)dx_1+(partialxi_1)/(partialx_2)dx_2 (2) ...

Let {y^k} be a set of orthonormal vectors with k=1, 2, ..., K, such that the inner product (y^k,y^k)=1. Then set x=sum_(k=1)^Ku_ky^k (1) so that for any square matrix A for ...

To find the minimum distance between a point in the plane (x_0,y_0) and a quadratic plane curve y=a_0+a_1x+a_2x^2, (1) note that the square of the distance is r^2 = ...

A number s of trials in which the probability of success p_i varies from trial to trial. Let x be the number of successes, then var(x)=spq-ssigma_p^2, (1) where sigma_p^2 is ...

Let X_1 and X_2 be the number of successes in variates taken from two populations. Define p^^_1 = (x_1)/(n_1) (1) p^^_2 = (x_2)/(n_2). (2) The estimator of the difference is ...
