  2. Euler's theorem in geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_theorem_in_geometry

    In geometry, Euler's theorem states that the distance d between the circumcenter and incenter of a triangle is given by [1] [2] = or equivalently + + =, where and denote the circumradius and inradius respectively (the radii of the circumscribed circle and inscribed circle respectively).

    Distance covered is the area under the line. Each time interval is coloured differently. The distance covered in the second and subsequent intervals is the area of its trapezium, which can be subdivided into triangles as shown. As each triangle has the same base and height, they have the same area as the triangle in the first interval.

  4. Triangulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangulation

    One of the sensors is typically a digital camera device, and the other one can also be a camera or a light projector. The projection centers of the sensors and the considered point on the object's surface define a (spatial) triangle. Within this triangle, the distance between the sensors is the base b and must be known. By determining the ...

  5. Euclidean distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_distance

    The distance between any two points on the real line is the absolute value of the numerical difference of their coordinates, their absolute difference.Thus if and are two points on the real line, then the distance between them is given by: [1]

  6. Polygon triangulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygon_triangulation

    Several improved methods with complexity O(n log * n) (in practice, indistinguishable from linear time) followed. [9] [10] [11] Bernard Chazelle showed in 1991 that any simple polygon can be triangulated in linear time, though the proposed algorithm is very complex. [12] A simpler randomized algorithm with linear expected time is also known. [13]

  7. Distance geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_geometry

    Distance geometry is the branch of mathematics concerned with characterizing and studying sets of points based only on given values of the distances between pairs of points. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] More abstractly, it is the study of semimetric spaces and the isometric transformations between them.

  8. Taxicab geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxicab_geometry

    In taxicab geometry, the lengths of the red, blue, green, and yellow paths all equal 12, the taxicab distance between the opposite corners, and all four paths are shortest paths. Instead, in Euclidean geometry, the red, blue, and yellow paths still have length 12 but the green path is the unique shortest path, with length equal to the Euclidean ...

  9. Viviani's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viviani's_theorem

    For any interior point P, the sum of the lengths of the perpendiculars s + t + u equals the height of the equilateral triangle.. Viviani's theorem, named after Vincenzo Viviani, states that the sum of the shortest distances from any interior point to the sides of an equilateral triangle equals the length of the triangle's altitude.
