  2. Surface area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_area

    A sphere of radius r has surface area 4πr 2.. The surface area (symbol A) of a solid object is a measure of the total area that the surface of the object occupies. [1] The mathematical definition of surface area in the presence of curved surfaces is considerably more involved than the definition of arc length of one-dimensional curves, or of the surface area for polyhedra (i.e., objects with ...

  3. Right circular cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_circular_cylinder

    The area of the base of a cylinder is the area of a circle (in this case we define that the circle has a radius with measure ): B = π r 2 {\displaystyle B=\pi r^{2}} . To calculate the total area of a right circular cylinder, you simply add the lateral area to the area of the two bases:

  4. Roundness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roundness

    A common definition used in digital image processing (image analysis) for characterizing 2-D shapes is: Roundness = ⁠ Perimeter 2 / 4 π × Area ⁠. This ratio will be 1 for a circle and greater than 1 for non-circular shapes. Another definition is the inverse of that: Roundness = ⁠ 4 π × Area / Perimeter 2 ⁠,

  5. On the Sphere and Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_the_Sphere_and_Cylinder

    The ratio of the volume of a sphere to the volume of its circumscribed cylinder is 2:3, as was determined by Archimedes. The principal formulae derived in On the Sphere and Cylinder are those mentioned above: the surface area of the sphere, the volume of the contained ball, and surface area and volume of the cylinder.

  6. Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder

    The lateral area, L, of a circular cylinder, which need not be a right cylinder, is more generally given by =, where e is the length of an element and p is the perimeter of a right section of the cylinder. [9] This produces the previous formula for lateral area when the cylinder is a right circular cylinder.

  7. Glossary of probability and statistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_probability...

    Also confidence coefficient. A number indicating the probability that the confidence interval (range) captures the true population mean. For example, a confidence interval with a 95% confidence level has a 95% chance of capturing the population mean. Technically, this means that, if the experiment were repeated many times, 95% of the CIs computed at this level would contain the true population ...

  8. Annulus (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annulus_(mathematics)

    The area of an annulus is the difference in the areas of the larger circle of radius R and the smaller one of radius r: = = = (+) (). As a corollary of the chord formula, the area bounded by the circumcircle and incircle of every unit convex regular polygon is π /4

  9. Flat-eight engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat-eight_engine

    The Type 908 was not based on the Type 771, but instead the Type 916 flat-six racing six-cylinder engine with two additional cylinders. [18] Porsche also installed Type 908 engines into two Porsche 914/8 mid-engined road cars. The first of these was a concept study built by the head of the racing department, and the second was built as a 60th ...
