Sine, Cosine, And Tangent Table: 0 To 360 Degrees, Paul Royster 2017 University of Nebraska-Lincoln

Sine, Cosine, And Tangent Table: 0 To 360 Degrees, Paul Royster

Math Department: Class Notes and Learning Materials

In helping with my high school student's math homework, I was astonished to find no trig tables in the 800-page textbook. I was further astonished to find no printable version online that extended beyond 90°.

While most smartphones will tell you the sine of an angle, they will not necessarily tell you the angle for which the sine is x. And since multiple angles may have the same sine (e.g. 59° and 121°), it seems useful to see the numerical progression of the functions in addition to their graphical representation.

Here is a printable sine-cosine-tangent table for all integer angle …


Series Solutions Of Polarized Gowdy Universes, Doniray Brusaferro 2017 Virginia Commonwealth University

Series Solutions Of Polarized Gowdy Universes, Doniray Brusaferro

Theses and Dissertations

Einstein's field equations are a system of ten partial differential equations. For a special class of spacetimes known as Gowdy spacetimes, the number of equations is reduced due to additional structure of two dimensional isometry groups with mutually orthogonal Killing vectors. In this thesis, we focus on a particular model of Gowdy spacetimes known as the polarized T3 model, and provide an explicit solution to Einstein's equations.

On A Double Integral Involving The I-Function Of Two Variables, Shantha K. Kumari, Vasudevan T. M. Nambisan 2016 P.A. College of Engineering, India

On A Double Integral Involving The I-Function Of Two Variables, Shantha K. Kumari, Vasudevan T. M. Nambisan

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper we establish an interesting double integral involving the I-function of two variables recently introduced in the literature. Since I-function of two variables is a very generalized function of two variables and it includes as special cases many of the known functions appearing in the literature, a number of integrals can be obtained by reducing the I-function of two variables to simpler special functions by suitably specializing the parameters. A few special cases of our result are also discussed.

The observation that the number of transistors packed on integrated circuits doubles every two years made by Gordon E. Moore in 1965 is still accurate to this day. With ever increasing computing power more and more mathematical problems can be tacked using brute force. At the same time the advances in mathematical software made tools like Maple, Mathematica, Matlab or Mathcad widely available and easy to use for the vast majority of the mathematical research community. This tools don’t only …
