Circles Definition and 307 Threads

I have conducted some modest research myself into this phenomenon. It transpires that a few bold scientists have gathered samples of seeds from the flattened areas (Wiltshire), and some from the normal crop. Very interesting results, with the non-normal ones exhibiting strange properties. Some...

I can find the area of e and f but otherwise am stuck with many simultaneous equations. i don't think my approach is correct though considering it is an elementary school problem. it should be simpler? 1 semicircle area = π(52)/2 = 12.5π = 39.25 cm2 Square area = 10x10 = 100cm2 Square – 2...

Let R = radius of big circle and r = radius of small circle. I worked out that ##R \times r=144## but then not sure how to proceed. I also know AB = CD = 24 cm. Thanks

in what geometry would a cube of circles be possible

(a) The hint from question is to used geometrical argument. From the graph, I can see ##r_1+r_2=c_2-c_1## but I doubt it will be usefule since the limit is ##\frac{r_2}{r_1} \rightarrow 1##, not in term of ##c##. I also tried to calculate the limit directly (not using geometrical argument at...

For this problem, The limiting position of R is (4,0). However, I am trying to solve this problem using a method that is different to the solutions. So far I have got, ##C_1: (x - 1)^2 + y^2 = 1## ##C_2: x^2 + y^2 = r^2## To find the equation of PQ, ## P(0,r) ## and ##R(R,0) ## ## y =...

Consider a convex shape ##S## of positive area ##A## inside the unit square. Let ##a≤1## be the supremum of all subsets of the unit square that can be obtained as disjoint union of finitely many scaled and translated copies of ##S##. Partition the square into ##n×n## smaller squares (see...

By measuring angle \theta from the positive ##x## axis counterclockwise as usual, I get ##d\vec{E}=k( (\lambda_2-\lambda_1)\cos(\theta)d\theta, (\lambda_2-\lambda_1)\sin(\theta)d\theta )## and by integrating from ##\theta=0## to ##\theta=\frac{\pi}{2}## I get...

Find the coordinates of all points whose distance form (1,0) is $\sqrt{10}$ and whose distance is from (5.4) is $\sqrt{10}$ ok assume first we convert the info to (2) general eq of a circle $(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$ so we have $(x-1)^2+(y-0)^2=10$ and $(x-4)^2+(y-4)^2=10$edit:took out tikz

Adam has a circle of radius $1$ centered at the origin. - First, he draws $6$ segments from the origin to the boundary of the circle, which splits the upper (positive $y$) semicircle into $7$ equal pieces. - Next, starting from each point where a segment hit the circle, he draws an...

studying with a friend there was the intersection of 3 circles problem which is in common usage here is my overleaf output I was wondering if this could be solved with a matrix in that it has squares in it or is there a standard equation for finding the intersection of 3 circles given the...

So, say you got 4 circles intersecting this way: Now, I am looking for two things: A proof that each part of the circle which is in an intersection is 1/4 the size of the whole circle's circumference The exact area of the non-shaded region. Now, in my search to finding the answer to...

Say I have two identical circles, both of radii of one, overlapping, as shown in the diagram below: In this diagram, x is the circumference of the circles, and the bit of the bottom circle which is drawn blue (the overlapping bit) is 1/6th of the whole circumference. What I'm looking for is...

As I was flipping through pages of my analytic geometry book from high school, in circle section I stumbled across the formula of "family of circles intersecting at two points" with two circles (##x^2 + y^2 + D_1 x + E_1 y + F_1 = 0## , ##x^2 + y^2 + D_2 x + E_2 y + F_2 = 0##) known to intersect...

Well I was thinking everything is moving in circle or ellipse, is universe also in such motion? If so it may be moving on a different dimension fourth one maybe on time, where time would be a physical quantity, a closed loop on which universe is revolving and repeating every single point as we...

Hey! :o We have the matrix $$A=\begin{pmatrix}2 & 0.4 & -0.1 & 0.3 \\ 0.3 & 3 & -0.1 & 0.2 \\ 0 & 0.7 & 3 & 1 \\ 0.2 & 0.1 & 0 & 4\end{pmatrix}$$ We get the row Gershgorin circles: $$K_1=\{z\in \mathbb{C} : |z-2|\leq 0.8 \} \\ K_2=\{z\in \mathbb{C} : |z-3|\leq 0.6 \} \\ K_3=\{z\in \mathbb{C} ...

Latest buzzwords include "functional programming" and "stateless." What's funny is these are not new, just a reversion from OOP back to procedural programming the way you write code in C. Create objects that are just value bags with no behavior and write functions that modify the values. Or...

Mentor note: Moved from a technical math section. What is the proof that the family of circles out of two non-intersecting circles, no two circles in that family intersect. Say S1 = x^2 + y^2 - 8x + 7 = 0 (i.e center at (4,0) and radius = 3 ) S2 = x^2 + y^2 - 24x + 135 = 0 ( i.e center...
