  2. Angle bisector theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle_bisector_theorem

    Consider a triangle ABC.Let the angle bisector of angle ∠ A intersect side BC at a point D between B and C.The angle bisector theorem states that the ratio of the length of the line segment BD to the length of segment CD is equal to the ratio of the length of side AB to the length of side AC:

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7.5×55mm_Swiss

    The 7.5×55mm Swiss or 7,5mm GP 11 (or unofficially 7.5×55mm Schmidt–Rubin) is a cartridge developed for the Swiss Army.It originated from the Gewehrpatrone 1890 (7.5×53.5mm) developed in 1889 by mechanical engineer Lt. Col. Eduard Rubin for rifles based on Rudolf Schmidt's action design.

  4. Inverse element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_element

    In mathematics, the concept of an inverse element generalises the concepts of opposite (−x) and reciprocal (1/x) of numbers.. Given an operation denoted here ∗, and an identity element denoted e, if x ∗ y = e, one says that x is a left inverse of y, and that y is a right inverse of x.

  5. 7.5 cm Leichtgeschütz 40 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7.5_cm_Leichtgeschütz_40

    The LG 40 first saw use during the Battle of Crete where it apparently equipped 2. Batterie/Fallschirmjäger-Artillerie-Abteilung (2nd Battery/Parachute Artillery Battalion). [2]

  6. g-force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-force

    The reason for the minus sign is that the actual force (i.e., measured weight) on an object produced by a g-force is in the opposite direction to the sign of the g-force, since in physics, weight is not the force that produces the acceleration, but rather the equal-and-opposite reaction force to it.

  7. Grade (slope) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grade_(slope)

    (This is the angle α opposite the "rise" side of a triangle with a right angle between vertical rise and horizontal run.) as a percentage, the formula for which is which is equivalent to the tangent of the angle of inclination times 100. In Europe and the U.S. percentage "grade" is the most commonly used figure for describing slopes.

  8. Exponentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation

    Graphs of y = b x for various bases b: base 10, base e, base 2, base ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠. Each curve passes through the point (0, 1) because any nonzero number raised to the power of 0 is 1. At x = 1, the value of y equals the base because any number raised to the power of 1 is the number itself.

  9. Newton's laws of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_laws_of_motion

    If two bodies exert forces on each other, these forces have the same magnitude but opposite directions. [1] [2] The three laws of motion were first stated by Isaac Newton in his Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica (Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy), originally published in 1687. [3]
