    For the sine function, we can handle other values. If θ > π /2, then θ > 1. But sin θ ≤ 1 (because of the Pythagorean identity), so sin θ < θ. So we have ⁡ < <. For negative values of θ we have, by the symmetry of the sine function

    An "extensional stance" and restriction to a second-order predicate logic means that a propositional function extended to all individuals such as "All 'x' are blue" now has to list all of the 'x' that satisfy (are true in) the proposition, listing them in a possibly infinite conjunction: e.g. x 1x 2 ∧ . . . ∧ x n ∧ . . ..

    For a positive integer x, let M x denote the set of those n in {1, 2, ..., x} which are not divisible by any prime greater than p k (or equivalently all n ≤ x which are a product of powers of primes p i ≤ p k). We will now derive an upper and a lower estimate for | M x |, the number of elements in M x.

    Recall that M = I − P where P is the projection onto linear space spanned by columns of matrix X. By properties of a projection matrix, it has p = rank(X) eigenvalues equal to 1, and all other eigenvalues are equal to 0.

  7. Euler's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_formula

    The original proof is based on the Taylor series expansions of the exponential function e z (where z is a complex number) and of sin x and cos x for real numbers x . In fact, the same proof shows that Euler's formula is even valid for all complex numbers x.

  8. Harmonic series (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    [1] [2] Every term of the harmonic series after the first is the harmonic mean of the neighboring terms, so the terms form a harmonic progression; the phrases harmonic mean and harmonic progression likewise derive from music. [2] Beyond music, harmonic sequences have also had a certain popularity with architects.

    In mathematics, the infinite series ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ + ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠ + ⁠ 1 / 8 ⁠ + ⁠ 1 / 16 ⁠ + ··· is an elementary example of a geometric series that converges absolutely. The sum of the series is 1. In summation notation, this may be expressed as
