The inverse curve of the Archimedean spiral r=atheta^(1/n) with inversion center at the origin and inversion radius k is the Archimedean spiral r=k/atheta^(-1/n).

Draw the perpendicular line from the intersection of the two small semicircles in the arbelos. The two circles C_1 and C_2 tangent to this line, the large semicircle, and ...

Let M be the midpoint of the arc AMB. Pick C at random and pick D such that MD_|_AC (where _|_ denotes perpendicular). Then AD=DC+BC.

Cut a sphere by a plane in such a way that the volumes of the spherical segments have a given ratio.

Taking the origin as the inversion center, Archimedes' spiral r=atheta inverts to the hyperbolic spiral r=a/theta.

A map F from R^n to R^n is area-preserving if m(F^(-1)(A))=m(A) for every subregion A of R^n, where m(A) is the n-dimensional measure of A. A linear transformation is ...

Barycentric coordinates (t_1,t_2,t_3) normalized so that they become the areas of the triangles PA_1A_2, PA_1A_3, and PA_2A_3, where P is the point whose coordinates have ...

A vaguely defined branch of mathematics dealing with varieties, the Mordell conjecture, Arakelov theory, and elliptic curves.

The arithmetic mean of a set of values is the quantity commonly called "the" mean or the average. Given a set of samples {x_i}, the arithmetic mean is x^_=1/Nsum_(i=1)^Nx_i. ...

Arnauld's paradox states that if negative numbers exist, then (-1)/1 must equal 1/(-1), which asserts that the ratio of a smaller to a larger quantity equals the ratio of the ...
