What are alternate angles?
Space & NavigationAlternate Angles: Cracking the Code Geometry can seem like a maze of lines and angles, right? But once you start to understand the basic building blocks, things get a whole lot easier. One of those fundamental concepts is alternate angles. You’ll find them popping up everywhere from geometric proofs to building designs, so getting a
How big is the sun moon and earth?
Space & NavigationThe Sun, Moon, and Earth: How Big Are They, Really? Space. It’s mind-boggling, isn’t it? Trying to wrap your head around the sheer scale of everything out there can be a real trip. So, let’s talk about some familiar cosmic neighbors: the Sun, the Earth, and the Moon. How do they stack up, size-wise? You
What is the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter called?
Space & NavigationThe Asteroid Belt: A Cosmic Debris Field Between Mars and Jupiter Ever looked up at the night sky and wondered what’s really out there? Well, nestled between Mars and Jupiter is a region that’s always fascinated me: the asteroid belt. Officially called the main asteroid belt, it’s basically a cosmic debris field, a circumstellar disc
What units does a trundle wheel measure?
Space & NavigationTrundle Wheels: More Than Just a Click Away from Accurate Measurement Ever seen someone pushing what looks like a giant pizza cutter across a field? Chances are, that’s a trundle wheel, also known by a bunch of other names like surveyor’s wheel, click wheel, or even waywiser. Whatever you call it, it’s a nifty gadget
What is the horizontal and vertical line test?
Space & NavigationIf a horizontal line cuts the curve more than once at some point, then the curve doesn’t have an inverse function. So in short, if you have a curve, the vertical line test checks if that curve is a function, and the horizontal line test checks whether the inverse of that curve is a function.
Can a square be a rhombus and a rectangle?
Space & NavigationRhombus Theorem: A quadrilateral is a rhombus if and only if it has four congruent sides. Square Theorem: A quadrilateral is a square if and only if it has four right angles and four congruent sides. From the Square Theorem, we can also conclude that a square is a rectangle and a rhombus. Can a
