    Thus, the ratio 40:60 is equivalent in meaning to the ratio 2:3, the latter being obtained from the former by dividing both quantities by 20. Mathematically, we write 40:60 = 2:3, or equivalently 40:60∷2:3. The verbal equivalent is "40 is to 60 as 2 is to 3." A ratio that has integers for both quantities and that cannot be reduced any further ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

    A ratio is often converted to a fraction when it is expressed as a ratio to the whole. In the above example, the ratio of yellow cars to all the cars on the lot is 4:12 or 1:3. We can convert these ratios to a fraction, and say that ⁠ 4 / 12 ⁠ of the cars or ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠ of the cars in the lot are yellow.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_series

    The geometric series is an infinite series derived from a special type of sequence called a geometric progression.This means that it is the sum of infinitely many terms of geometric progression: starting from the initial term , and the next one being the initial term multiplied by a constant number known as the common ratio .

    Today, a more standard phrasing of Archimedes' proposition is that the partial sums of the series 1 + ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠ + ⁠ 1 / 16 ⁠ + ⋯ are: + + + + = +. This form can be proved by multiplying both sides by 1 − ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠ and observing that all but the first and the last of the terms on the left-hand side of the equation cancel in pairs.

  6. Sine and cosine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sine_and_cosine

    In mathematics, sine and cosine are trigonometric functions of an angle.The sine and cosine of an acute angle are defined in the context of a right triangle: for the specified angle, its sine is the ratio of the length of the side that is opposite that angle to the length of the longest side of the triangle (the hypotenuse), and the cosine is the ratio of the length of the adjacent leg to that ...

    where d(x,y) is the Euclidean distance from x to y. [16] The scalar r has many names in the literature including; the ratio of similarity, the stretching factor and the similarity coefficient. When r = 1 a similarity is called an isometry (rigid transformation). Two sets are called similar if one is the image of the other under a similarity.
