  2. Hyperbola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbola

    Then the area of the hyperbolic sector is the area of the triangle minus the curved region past the vertex at (,): = = (⁡ (+)), which simplifies to the area hyperbolic cosine = ⁡ = ⁡ (+). Solving for x {\displaystyle x} yields the exponential form of the hyperbolic cosine: x = cosh ⁡ a = e a + e a 2 . {\displaystyle x=\cosh a={\frac ...

  3. Unit hyperbola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_hyperbola

    The diameter of the unit hyperbola represents a frame of reference in motion with rapidity a where tanh a = y/x and (x,y) is the endpoint of the diameter on the unit hyperbola. The conjugate diameter represents the spatial hyperplane of simultaneity corresponding to rapidity a.

  4. Conditional entropy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conditional_entropy

    The area contained by both circles is the joint entropy (,). The circle on the left (red and violet) is the individual entropy H ( X ) {\displaystyle \mathrm {H} (X)} , with the red being the conditional entropy H ( X | Y ) {\displaystyle \mathrm {H} (X|Y)} .

  5. Hyperbolic functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_functions

    A ray through the unit hyperbola x 2 y 2 = 1 at the point (cosh a, sinh a), where a is twice the area between the ray, the hyperbola, and the x-axis. For points on the hyperbola below the x-axis, the area is considered negative (see animated version with comparison with the trigonometric (circular) functions).

  6. Dirichlet hyperbola method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirichlet_hyperbola_method

    In the Cartesian plane, these pairs lie on a hyperbola, and when the double sum is fully expanded, there is a bijection between the terms of the sum and the lattice points in the first quadrant on the hyperbolas of the form xy = k, where k runs over the integers 1 ≤ k ≤ n: for each such point (x,y), the sum contains a term g(x)h(y), and ...

  7. Hyperbolic sector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_sector

    A hyperbolic sector is a region of the Cartesian plane bounded by a hyperbola and two rays from the origin to it. For example, the two points (a, 1/a) and (b, 1/b) on the rectangular hyperbola xy = 1, or the corresponding region when this hyperbola is re-scaled and its orientation is altered by a rotation leaving the center at the origin, as with the unit hyperbola.

  8. Hyperbolic angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_angle

    If P 0 is taken to be the point (1, 1), P 1 the point (x 1, 1/x 1), and P 2 the point (x 2, 1/x 2), then the parallel condition requires that Q be the point (x 1 x 2, 1/x 1 1/x 2). It thus makes sense to define the hyperbolic angle from P 0 to an arbitrary point on the curve as a logarithmic function of the point's value of x. [1] [2]

  9. Pell's equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pell's_equation

    Indeed, if x and y are positive integers satisfying this equation, then x/y is an approximation of √ 2. The numbers x and y appearing in these approximations, called side and diameter numbers, were known to the Pythagoreans, and Proclus observed that in the opposite direction these numbers obeyed one of these two equations.
