  2. Square (algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_(algebra)

    The square of the absolute value of a complex number is called its absolute square, squared modulus, or squared magnitude. [1] [better source needed] It is the product of the complex number with its complex conjugate, and equals the sum of the squares of the real and imaginary parts of the complex number.

  3. Square number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_number

    Square number 16 as sum of gnomons. In mathematics, a square number or perfect square is an integer that is the square of an integer; [1] in other words, it is the product of some integer with itself. For example, 9 is a square number, since it equals 3 2 and can be written as 3 × 3.

    The half-angle formula for cosine can be obtained by replacing with / and taking the square-root of both sides: ⁡ (/) = (+ ⁡) /. Sine power-reduction formula: an illustrative diagram. The shaded blue and green triangles, and the red-outlined triangle E B D {\displaystyle EBD} are all right-angled and similar, and all contain the angle θ ...

  5. Imaginary unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imaginary_unit

    The imaginary unit i is defined solely by the property that its square is −1: = With i defined this way, it follows directly from algebra that i and − i are both square roots of −1. Although the construction is called "imaginary", and although the concept of an imaginary number may be intuitively more difficult to grasp than that of a ...

  6. Euler's identity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_identity

    Euler's identity asserts that is equal to −1. The expression e i π {\displaystyle e^{i\pi }} is a special case of the expression e z {\displaystyle e^{z}} , where z is any complex number . In general, e z {\displaystyle e^{z}} is defined for complex z by extending one of the definitions of the exponential function from real exponents to ...

  7. Quadratic formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_formula

    The roots of the quadratic function y = ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ x 2 − 3x + ⁠ 5 / 2 ⁠ are the places where the graph intersects the x-axis, the values x = 1 and x = 5. They can be found via the quadratic formula. In elementary algebra, the quadratic formula is a closed-form expression describing the solutions of a quadratic equation.

    On the other hand, the primes 3, 7, 11, 19, 23 and 31 are all congruent to 3 modulo 4, and none of them can be expressed as the sum of two squares. This is the easier part of the theorem, and follows immediately from the observation that all squares are congruent to 0 (if number squared is even) or 1 (if number squared is odd) modulo 4.

  9. Square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square

    The central angle of a square is equal to 90° (360°/4). The external angle of a square is equal to 90°. The diagonals of a square are equal and bisect each other, meeting at 90°. The diagonal of a square bisects its internal angle, forming adjacent angles of 45°. All four sides of a square are equal. Opposite sides of a square are parallel.
