I do not think it is likely because it is impossible to trisect an angle exactly in geometry. Since you can not do that I do not know how you could make a construction of right triangles that would lead to a triangle with exactly 1/3 of the original angle in it. Question: What is the relationship between trisecting an...

A Little Bit of Trigonometry Some tasks. 1. Measure side a and side c, and compute a/c. Use a protractor to measure angle A, and find sin A with a calculator. Does a/c = sin A? 2. Measure side b, and compute b/c. Find cos A with a calculator. Are they the same? 3. Do the same for angle B: measure b, and compute b/c. Me...

I'll refer to this image: Red vector (named direction) is direction Two blue vectors represent range where I want to do something α (alpha) is "falloff" of direction Purple vector (v) is the vector which I need to check if it's between two blues. In other words, I need to check if (v) is between (direction-α) and (dire...

When the midpoints of the sides of a Quadrilateral are joined, another quadrilateral results. using the diagram helps to see what is special about this new quadrilateral. Try the Quadrilateral applet for yourself. The Pythagorean Theorem can be proved in many ways. This diagram uses shears to show a version of Euclid's...

New from the Blog Geom(ag)etry: Dodecahedrons and Icosahedrons What follows is an explanation very similar to the one about Cubes and Octahedrons. We are now starting to see how two other Platonic solids are tied together: the Dodecahedron with its 12 pentagonal faces and Icosahedron made up by 20 equilateral triangles...

Since the center of each square is the center of the sphere, therefore two sides, EF and FG, along with the one diameter EG of the octahedron form a 45°-45°-90° triangle. Thus, the square on the diameter of the sphere is twice the square on the side of the octahedron. Coordinates for the vertices of the octahedron If t...

Second equation is x= 2y + 100 You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let M = Mary's age then because "Susan is six years older than Mary." M+6 = Susan's age . From:"She is twicw as old as Mary" M+6 = 2M Solve for M by subtracting M from both sides: M+6-M = 2M-M 6 years old = M (Mary's age) . Susan's age: M+6 = 6+6...

From the slope and the coordinates of one of the points, we can get the equation of the line. If the coordinates of the third point satisfy that equation, the third point lies on that same line. The slope of the line connecting (a,0) to (0,b) is Since the y-intercept is at (0,b), b is the intercept, and we can write as...

A function is considered Continuous if its graph has no gaps, no holes, no steps, and no cusps or discontinuities. Continuous CompoundingContinuous Function When the graph of a function has no holes, no gaps, no steps, or no discontinuities, then it is considered Continuous. It may have cusps.

A planar figure that neither crosses itself or contains a gap is a Simple Closed Curve; note that a curve can be "straight" according to the mathematicians. A number associated with a line graphed in a plane, Slope is the ratio of rise over run, an indication of the steepness of the line. We may write a line as y = mx ...
