Led by Clara Lemlich and the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union, and supported by the National Women's Trade Union League of America (NWTUL), the strike began in November 1909. In February 1910, the NWTUL settled with the factory owners, gaining improved wages, working conditions, and hours.
Clara Lemlich Shavelson (March 28, 1886 – July 12, 1982) was a leader of the Uprising of 20,000, the massive strike of shirtwaist workers in New York's garment industry in 1909, where she spoke in Yiddish and called for action. [1]
The triangle, viewed face-on, appears equilateral. In (4), the distances of P from lines BC , AC and AB are denoted by a ′ , b ′ and c ′ , respectively. For any line l = s + t n̂ in vector form ( n̂ is a unit vector) and a point p , the perpendicular distance from p to l is
There is a method to construct all Pythagorean triples that contain a given positive integer x as one of the legs of the right-angled triangle associated with the triple. It means finding all right triangles whose sides have integer measures, with one leg predetermined as a given cathetus. [13] The formulas read as follows.
In mathematics, modern triangle geometry, or new triangle geometry, is the body of knowledge relating to the properties of a triangle discovered and developed roughly since the beginning of the last quarter of the nineteenth century. Triangles and their properties were the subject of investigation since at least the time of Euclid.
Here are some formulas for conformal changes in tensors associated with the metric. (Quantities marked with a tilde will be associated with g ~ {\displaystyle {\tilde {g}}} , while those unmarked with such will be associated with g {\displaystyle g} .)
This formula generalizes Heron's formula for the area of a triangle. A triangle may be regarded as a quadrilateral with one side of length zero. From this perspective, as d approaches zero, a cyclic quadrilateral converges into a cyclic triangle (all triangles are cyclic), and Brahmagupta's formula simplifies to Heron's formula.
This distribution for a = 0, b = 1 and c = 0.5—the mode (i.e., the peak) is exactly in the middle of the interval—corresponds to the distribution of the mean of two standard uniform variables, that is, the distribution of X = (X 1 + X 2) / 2, where X 1, X 2 are two independent random variables with standard uniform distribution in [0, 1].
