  2. List of centroids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_centroids

    The following is a list of centroids of various two-dimensional and three-dimensional objects. The centroid of an object in -dimensional space is the intersection of all hyperplanes that divide into two parts of equal moment about the hyperplane.

  3. Group of rational points on the unit circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_of_rational_points...

    Let G 2 denote the subgroup of G generated by the point 0 + 1i. G 2 is a cyclic subgroup of order 4. For a prime p of form 4k + 1, let G p denote the subgroup of elements with denominator p n where n is a non-negative integer. G p is an infinite cyclic group, and the point (a 2 − b 2)/p + (2ab/p)i is a generator of G p.

  4. Double bubble theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_bubble_theorem

    A double bubble. Note that the surface separating the small lower bubble from the large bubble bulges into the large bubble. In the mathematical theory of minimal surfaces, the double bubble theorem states that the shape that encloses and separates two given volumes and has the minimum possible surface area is a standard double bubble: three spherical surfaces meeting at angles of 120° on a ...

  5. Pi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi

    The number π (/ p aɪ / ⓘ; spelled out as "pi") is a mathematical constant, approximately equal to 3.14159, that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter.It appears in many formulae across mathematics and physics, and some of these formulae are commonly used for defining π, to avoid relying on the definition of the length of a curve.

  6. Solid angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_angle

    This gives the expected results of 4 π steradians for the 3D sphere bounded by a surface of area 4πr 2 and 2 π radians for the 2D circle bounded by a circumference of length 2πr. It also gives the slightly less obvious 2 for the 1D case, in which the origin-centered 1D "sphere" is the interval [−r, r] and this is bounded by two limiting ...

  7. Milü - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milü

    [2] The accuracy of Milü to the true value of π can be explained using the continued fraction expansion of π , the first few terms of which are [3; 7, 15, 1, 292, 1, 1, ...] . A property of continued fractions is that truncating the expansion of a given number at any point will give the " best rational approximation " to the number.

  8. Pi bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi_bond

    A typical double bond consists of one sigma bond and one pi bond; for example, the C=C double bond in ethylene (H 2 C=CH 2). A typical triple bond, for example in acetylene (HC≡CH), consists of one sigma bond and two pi bonds in two mutually perpendicular planes containing the bond axis. Two pi bonds are the maximum that can exist between a ...

    Figure 2: A donor-acceptor interaction diagram illustrating construction of the triiodide anion σ natural bond orbitals from I 2 and I − fragments. In the natural bond orbital viewpoint of 3c–4e bonding, the triiodide anion is constructed from the combination of the diiodine (I 2) σ molecular orbitals and an iodide (I −) lone pair.
