  2. Degree (graph theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degree_(graph_theory)

    The degree sum formula states that, given a graph = (,), ⁡ = | |. The formula implies that in any undirected graph, the number of vertices with odd degree is even. This statement (as well as the degree sum formula) is known as the handshaking lemma. The latter name comes from a popular mathematical problem, which is to prove that in any group ...

  3. Handshaking lemma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handshaking_lemma

    The handshaking lemma is a consequence of the degree sum formula, also sometimes called the handshaking lemma, [2] according to which the sum of the degrees (the numbers of times each vertex is touched) equals twice the number of edges in the graph.

  4. Sum of angles of a triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sum_of_angles_of_a_triangle

    An easy formula for these properties is that in any three points in any shape, there is a triangle formed. Triangle ABC (example) has 3 points, and therefore, three angles; angle A, angle B, and angle C. Angle A, B, and C will always, when put together, will form 360 degrees. So, ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 360°

  5. Internal and external angles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_and_external_angles

    The sum of all the internal angles of a simple polygon is π(n−2) radians or 180(n–2) degrees, where n is the number of sides. The formula can be proved by using mathematical induction: starting with a triangle, for which the angle sum is 180°, then replacing one side with two sides connected at another vertex, and so on.

    Illustration of the sum formula. Draw a horizontal line (the x -axis); mark an origin O. Draw a line from O at an angle α {\displaystyle \alpha } above the horizontal line and a second line at an angle β {\displaystyle \beta } above that; the angle between the second line and the x -axis is α + β {\displaystyle \alpha +\beta } .

  7. Spherical geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_geometry

    The sum of the angles of a spherical triangle is not equal to 180°. A sphere is a curved surface, but locally the laws of the flat (planar) Euclidean geometry are good approximations. In a small triangle on the face of the earth, the sum of the angles is only slightly more than 180 degrees. A sphere with a spherical triangle on it.

  8. Degree of a polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degree_of_a_polynomial

    In mathematics, the degree of a polynomial is the highest of the degrees of the polynomial's monomials (individual terms) with non-zero coefficients. The degree of a term is the sum of the exponents of the variables that appear in it, and thus is a non-negative integer .

  9. Vieta's formulas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vieta's_formulas

    Vieta's formulas are frequently used with polynomials with coefficients in any integral domain R.Then, the quotients / belong to the field of fractions of R (and possibly are in R itself if happens to be invertible in R) and the roots are taken in an algebraically closed extension.
