  2. Stadium (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stadium_(geometry)

    A stadium is a two-dimensional geometric shape constructed of a rectangle with semicircles at a pair of opposite sides. [1] The same shape is known also as a pill shape, [2] discorectangle, [3] obround, [4] [5] or sausage body. [6] The shape is based on a stadium, a place used for athletics and horse racing tracks.

  3. Semicircle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semicircle

    For a semicircle with a diameter of a + b, the length of its radius is the arithmetic mean of a and b (since the radius is half of the diameter). The geometric mean can be found by dividing the diameter into two segments of lengths a and b, and then connecting their common endpoint to the semicircle with a segment perpendicular to the diameter ...

  4. Area of a circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_of_a_circle

    Since the area of the rectangle is ab, the area of the ellipse is π ab/4. We can also consider analogous measurements in higher dimensions. For example, we may wish to find the volume inside a sphere. When we have a formula for the surface area, we can use the same kind of "onion" approach we used for the disk.

    Winter brings less daylight and colder temperatures, which can disrupt sleep. Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is more common in winter due to the lack of sunlight, causing sleep disturbances.

  8. Area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area

    That is, the area of the rectangle is the length multiplied by the width. As a special case, as l = w in the case of a square, the area of a square with side length s is given by the formula: [1] [2] A = s 2 (square). The formula for the area of a rectangle follows directly from the basic properties of area, and is sometimes taken as a ...
