  2. AM–GM inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AM–GM_inequality

    In two dimensions, 2x 1 + 2x 2 is the perimeter of a rectangle with sides of length x 1 and x 2. Similarly, 4 √ x 1 x 2 is the perimeter of a square with the same area, x 1 x 2, as that rectangle. Thus for n = 2 the AM–GM inequality states that a rectangle of a given area has the smallest perimeter if that rectangle is also a square.

  3. Cramer's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cramer's_rule

    In linear algebra, Cramer's rule is an explicit formula for the solution of a system of linear equations with as many equations as unknowns, valid whenever the system has a unique solution.

  4. High Standard Model 10 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Standard_Model_10

    Originally, the Model 10 was sold to law enforcement only. The concept of this shotgun was quite interesting to many police agencies who adopted the Model 10 in the late 1960s and early 1970s; however, most of the agencies found many shortcomings, and ultimately ceased using the Model 10. The most common problem was the failure to cycle correctly.

  5. Quadratic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_equation

    Because (a + 1) 2 = a, a + 1 is the unique solution of the quadratic equation x 2 + a = 0. On the other hand, the polynomial x 2 + ax + 1 is irreducible over F 4, but it splits over F 16, where it has the two roots ab and ab + a, where b is a root of x 2 + x + a in F 16. This is a special case of Artin–Schreier theory.

  6. Algebraic closure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_closure

    In the same way, an extension K 2 of K 1 can be constructed, etc. The union of all these extensions is the algebraic closure of K , because any polynomial with coefficients in this new field has its coefficients in some K n with sufficiently large n , and then its roots are in K n +1 , and hence in the union itself.

  7. Ford Model T - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Model_T

    The Model T engine was produced for replacement needs as well as stationary and marine applications until 1941, well after production of the Model T ended. The Fordson Model F tractor engine, that was designed about a decade later, was very similar to, but larger than, the Model T engine. [46]
