#hyperbola — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #hyperbola, aggregated by home.social.

  1. #Inverse functions also exist using the #hyperbola in the role of the #circle. In these cases in #trigonometry the #arcfunctions are included below (possibly innocent errors about imaginary numbers):

  2. And so, here are four functions to demonstrate it. The default resolution of the plotting routine is crude, leading to #Aliasing and so the mesh has to be refined somewhat.

    Here are three #ConicSections and one #Trigonometric functions.

    An #Ellipse
    A #Parabola.
    A #Hyperbola.
    A rotating #Tangent function.

    What you need to know at this point in your learning process is simply that _around_ the Linux "kernel" there are different flavours of the "shell" part, hence different "distributions", in the jargon, of Linux-based operating systems.

    You may have heard of #Debian, #Ubuntu, #OpenSUSE, #Slackware, #Arch, #Mint, #Hyperbola, #Gentoo, #Fedora, #Devuan, ...

    ... anyway. These were ground-up clones started in the 1990s and later.

  4. I was explaining to my wife yesterday how #DifferentialCalculus gives us a way to find the #gradient of a #function at any point and to illustrate it I wrote a short routine in #Maxima to draw the #tangent to any point on a graph of a function. Here we see the example for the #quadratic and #reciprocal functions, x^2 and 1/x i.e. a #parabola and a #hyperbola respectively.
