  2. Unit circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_circle

    Illustration of a unit circle. The variable t is an angle measure. Animation of the act of unrolling the circumference of a unit circle, a circle with radius of 1. Since C = 2πr, the circumference of a unit circle is 2π. In mathematics, a unit circle is a circle of unit radius—that is, a radius of 1. [1]

  3. Smith chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith_chart

    The Smith chart (sometimes also called Smith diagram, Mizuhashi chart (水橋チャート), Mizuhashi–Smith chart (水橋スミスチャート), [1] [2] [3] Volpert–Smith chart (Диаграмма Вольперта—Смита) [4] [5] or Mizuhashi–Volpert–Smith chart), is a graphical calculator or nomogram designed for electrical and electronics engineers specializing in radio ...

  4. Circular motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_motion

    Category. v. t. e. In physics, circular motion is a movement of an object along the circumference of a circle or rotation along a circular arc. It can be uniform, with a constant rate of rotation and constant tangential speed, or non-uniform with a changing rate of rotation. The rotation around a fixed axis of a three-dimensional body involves ...

  5. Circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle

    t. e. A circle is a shape consisting of all points in a plane that are at a given distance from a given point, the centre. The distance between any point of the circle and the centre is called the radius. The length of a line segment connecting two points on the circle and passing through the centre is called the diameter.

  6. Circle group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_group

    In mathematics, the circle group, denoted by or ⁠ ⁠, is the multiplicative group of all complex numbers with absolute value 1, that is, the unit circle in the complex plane or simply the unit complex numbers[1] The circle group forms a subgroup of ⁠ ⁠, the multiplicative group of all nonzero complex numbers. Since is abelian, it follows ...

  7. Area of a circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_of_a_circle

    Consider the unit circle circumscribed by a square of side length 2. The transformation sends the circle to an ellipse by stretching or shrinking the horizontal and vertical diameters to the major and minor axes of the ellipse. The square gets sent to a rectangle circumscribing the ellipse. The ratio of the area of the circle to the square is ...

  8. Circle diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_diagram

    Constant air-gap induction motor equivalent circuit. The circle diagram (also known as Heyland diagram or Heyland circle) is the graphical representation of the performance of the electrical machine [1][2][3] drawn in terms of the locus of the machine's input voltage and current. [4] It was first conceived by Alexander Heyland [de] in 1894 and ...

  9. Sine and cosine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sine_and_cosine

    Animation demonstrating how the sine function (in red) is graphed from the y-coordinate (red dot) of a point on the unit circle (in green), at an angle of θ. The cosine (in blue) is the x-coordinate. Using the unit circle definition has the advantage of drawing a graph of sine and cosine functions.
