Cissoid of Diocles traced by points M with ¯ = ¯ Animation visualizing the Cissoid of Diocles. In geometry, the cissoid of Diocles (from Ancient Greek κισσοειδής (kissoeidēs) 'ivy-shaped'; named for Diocles) is a cubic plane curve notable for the property that it can be used to construct two mean proportionals to a given ratio.
Ptolemy's theorem states that the sum of the products of the lengths of opposite sides is equal to the product of the lengths of the diagonals. When those side-lengths are expressed in terms of the sin and cos values shown in the figure above, this yields the angle sum trigonometric identity for sine: sin(α + β) = sin α cos β + cos α sin β.
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
A medium with a permeability of 1 darcy permits a flow of 1 cm 3 /s of a fluid with viscosity 1 cP (1 mPa·s) under a pressure gradient of 1 atm/cm acting across an area of 1 cm 2. Typical values of permeability range as high as 100,000 darcys for gravel, to less than 0.01 microdarcy for granite. Sand has a permeability of approximately 1 darcy ...
Because PQ has length y 1, OQ length x 1, and OP has length 1 as a radius on the unit circle, sin(t) = y 1 and cos(t) = x 1. Having established these equivalences, take another radius OR from the origin to a point R(−x 1,y 1) on the circle such that the same angle t is formed with the negative arm of the x-axis.
ψ 1 Draconis (Latinised to Psi 1 Draconis) is the system's Bayer designation and 31 Draconis its Flamsteed designation.The designation of the components – ψ 1 Draconis A and B – derives from the convention used by the Washington Multiplicity Catalog (WMC) for multiple star systems, and adopted by the International Astronomical Union (IAU).

Samples from the cosine variant of the bivariate von Mises distribution. The green points are sampled from a distribution with high concentration and no correlation (= =, =), the blue points are sampled from a distribution with high concentration and negative correlation (= =, =), and the red points are sampled from a distribution with low concentration and no correlation (= =, =).
