The conditional probability of an event A assuming that B has occurred, denoted P(A|B), equals P(A|B)=(P(A intersection B))/(P(B)), (1) which can be proven directly using a ...

A set X is called a "cone" with vertex at the origin if for any x in X and any scalar a>=0, ax in X.

The endpoints of a confidence interval are known as the confidence limits.

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

Confocal parabolas are parabolas sharing a common focus.

A topological structure which interpolates between contact structures and codimension-one foliations.

The five of Hilbert's axioms which concern geometric equivalence.

A transformation of the form g=D^(T)etaD, where det(D)!=0 and det(D) is the determinant. Isometries are also called congruence transformations.

Two square matrices A and B are called congruent if there exists a nonsingular matrix P such that B=P^(T)AP, where P^(T) is the transpose.

A map projection with transformation equations x = rhosintheta (1) y = rho_0-rhocostheta, (2) where rho = (G-phi) (3) theta = n(lambda-lambda_0) (4) rho_0 = (G-phi_0) (5) G = ...
