Euclidean postulates, theorems and definitions 3

Geometri teorem den 29 juli 2012 00:02 Om två vinklar är vertikalvinklar är de båda vinklarna lika stora. (If two angles are vertical angles then the two angles are congruent.) Två trianglar är kongruenta (likadana) om två sidor och mellanliggande … Fortsätt läsa

Euclidean postulates, theorems and definitions 2

1. The sum of the measures of the four interior angles of a convex quadrilateral is 360 degrees, a constant. Two triangles are congruent (i.e. identical) if two angles and a non- included side of the first triangle are congruent … Fortsätt läsa

More vector algebra

A clever way to express the equation of a line is to use the parameter form. If C is any point on the line determined by two points a and B then we may always write C = (1-t) A … Fortsätt läsa
