2 dni temu · They are distinct from triangle identities, which are identities potentially involving angles but also involving side lengths or other lengths of a triangle. These identities are useful whenever expressions involving trigonometric functions need to be simplified.
To prove that the surface area of a sphere of radius \(r\) is \(4 \pi r^2 \), one straightforward method we can use is calculus. We first have to realize that for a curve parameterized by \(x(t)\) and \(y(t\)), the arc length is \[ S = \int_a^b \sqrt{ \left(\frac{dy}{dt}\right)^2 + \left( \frac{dx}{dt}\right)^2 } \, dt.
3 dni temu · Arc length of a full circle is its circumference, but what about the arc length of sectors (pieces of circles)? They are calculated by a formula \(S=r\theta,\) where \(S\) is the arc length, \(r\) is the radius of the circle, and \(\theta\) is the angle of the sector.
2 dni temu · The midpoint of the line segment joining the foci is called the center of the ellipse. The line through the foci is called the major axis, and the line perpendicular to it through the center is the minor axis. The major axis intersects the ellipse at two vertices,, which have distance to the center. The distance of the foci to the center is called the focal distance or linear eccentricity.

6 dni temu · Calculation Formula. The formula to calculate the central angle (in degrees) when the arc length and the radius are known is: \[ \theta = \frac{L}{R} \times \left( \frac{180}{\pi} \right) \] where: \(\theta\) is the central angle in degrees, \(L\) is the arc length, \(R\) is the radius of the circle, \(\pi\) approximately equals \(3.14159\).
