Consider a point P inside a reference triangle DeltaABC, construct line segments AP, BP, and CP. The Ehrmann congruent squares point is the unique point P such that three ...

A fact noticed by physicist G. Gamow when he had an office on the second floor and physicist M. Stern had an office on the sixth floor of a seven-story building (Gamow and ...

The evolute of an ellipse specified parametrically by x = acost (1) y = bsint (2) is given by the parametric equations x_e = (a^2-b^2)/acos^3t (3) y_e = (b^2-a^2)/bsin^3t. ...

The envelope of a one-parameter family of curves given implicitly by U(x,y,c)=0, (1) or in parametric form by (f(t,c),g(t,c)), is a curve that touches every member of the ...

A square array made by combining n objects of two types such that the first and second elements form Latin squares. Euler squares are also known as Graeco-Latin squares, ...

Exponential growth is the increase in a quantity N according to the law N(t)=N_0e^(lambdat) (1) for a parameter t and constant lambda (the analog of the decay constant), ...

A coordinate system similar to toroidal coordinates but with fourth-degree instead of second-degree surfaces for constant mu so that the toroids of circular cross section are ...

Let f:R×R->R be a one-parameter family of C^2 map satisfying f(0,0)=0 [(partialf)/(partialx)]_(mu=0,x=0)=0 [(partial^2f)/(partialx^2)]_(mu=0,x=0)>0 ...

A algebraic loop L is a generalized Bol loop if for all elements x, y, and z of L, ((xy)z)alpha(y)=x((yz)alpha(y)) for some map alpha:L->L. As the name suggests, these are ...

A topologically invariant property of a surface defined as the largest number of nonintersecting simple closed curves that can be drawn on the surface without separating it. ...
