Let P = (x, y) and let ψ be the angle between SB and the x-axis; this is equal to the angle between ST and J. By construction, PT = a, so the distance from P to J is a sin ψ. In other words a – x = a sin ψ. Also, SP = a is the y-coordinate of (x, y) if it is rotated by angle ψ, so a = (x + a) sin ψ + y cos ψ. After simplification, this ...
Ptolemy's theorem states that the sum of the products of the lengths of opposite sides is equal to the product of the lengths of the diagonals. When those side-lengths are expressed in terms of the sin and cos values shown in the figure above, this yields the angle sum trigonometric identity for sine: sin(α + β) = sin α cos β + cos α sin β.
Then multiplying the numerator and denominator inside the square root by (1 + cos θ) and using Pythagorean identities leads to: = + . Also, if the numerator and denominator are both multiplied by (1 - cos θ), the result is:
where is time, | is the state vector of the quantum system (being the Greek letter psi), and ^ is an observable, the Hamiltonian operator. The term "Schrödinger equation" can refer to both the general equation, or the specific nonrelativistic version.
The real parts of position wave function Ψ(x) and momentum wave function Φ(p), and corresponding probability densities |Ψ(x)| 2 and |Φ(p)| 2, for one spin-0 particle in one x or p dimension. The colour opacity of the particles corresponds to the probability density (not the wave function) of finding the particle at position x or momentum p.
where α is a simple rotation angle (the value in radians of the angle of rotation) and cos(β x), cos(β y) and cos(β z) are the "direction cosines" of the angles between the three coordinate axes and the axis of rotation. (Euler's Rotation Theorem).
The Chebyshev functions, especially the second one ψ (x), are often used in proofs related to prime numbers, because it is typically simpler to work with them than with the prime-counting function, π (x) (see the exact formula below.) Both Chebyshev functions are asymptotic to x, a statement equivalent to the prime number theorem.
In mathematics, the values of the trigonometric functions can be expressed approximately, as in (/), or exactly, as in (/) = /.While trigonometric tables contain many approximate values, the exact values for certain angles can be expressed by a combination of arithmetic operations and square roots.
