Geometry

Pi

Mathematics; Geometry

The ratio of any circle's diameter to its circumference. There are some who wish to replace its use with Tau, the ratio of any circle's radius to its circumference, apparently because it makes ...

Special Relativity

Mathematics; Geometry

The formula that describes how the time perceived by an object relative to a plane of reference becomes longer as it approaches the speed of light relative to the same plane of reference.

Eulers Identity

Mathematics; Geometry

The formula that is said to be "the most remarkable formula in mathematics." e raised to the imaginary unit with pi is equal to negative one. It contains what some say to be all of the important ...

Circle

Mathematics; Geometry

Perhaps one of the most simple and yet complex geometric figures in existence. A circle is made by a point rotating around another in a plane with a fixed distance.

Triangle

Mathematics; Geometry

The simplest plane figure in existence, made up of three lines. Due to its simplicity several symbolisms have been associated with it, like the concept of trinities and stability.

Conic Section

Mathematics; Geometry

Conic sections are the intersection of a cone with a flat plane. These have various uses, from parabolas being effective focuses of rays, to ovals which can transmit information from one focus to ...

Moebius Strip

Mathematics; Geometry

A strip with only one side and one boundary. It is formed by taking a strip of paper, twisting one end by 180 degrees, and then joining it to the other end.
