  2. E6B - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E6B

    The mathematical formulas that equate to the results of the flight computer wind calculator are as follows: (desired course is d, ground speed is V g, heading is a, true airspeed is V a, wind direction is w, wind speed is V w. d, a and w are angles. V g, V a and V w are consistent units of speed. is approximated as 355/113 or 22/7)

  3. Welch's t-test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welch's_t-test

    Student's t-test assumes that the sample means being compared for two populations are normally distributed, and that the populations have equal variances.Welch's t-test is designed for unequal population variances, but the assumption of normality is maintained. [1]

  4. Standard error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_error

    This approximate formula is for moderate to large sample sizes; the reference gives the exact formulas for any sample size, and can be applied to heavily autocorrelated time series like Wall Street stock quotes. Moreover, this formula works for positive and negative ρ alike. [12] See also unbiased estimation of standard deviation for more ...

  5. Bretschneider's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bretschneider's_formula

    Bretschneider's formula generalizes Brahmagupta's formula for the area of a cyclic quadrilateral, which in turn generalizes Heron's formula for the area of a triangle.. The trigonometric adjustment in Bretschneider's formula for non-cyclicality of the quadrilateral can be rewritten non-trigonometrically in terms of the sides and the diagonals e and f to give [2] [3]

  6. Anion gap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anion_gap

    Different labs use different formulas and procedures to calculate the anion gap, so the reference range (or "normal" range) from one lab isn't directly interchangeable with the range from another. The reference range provided by the particular lab that performed the testing should always be used to interpret the results. [ 3 ]

  7. Decay correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decay_correction

    The decay correct might be used this way: a group of 20 animals is injected with a compound of interest on a Monday at 10:00 a.m. The compound is chemically joined to the isotope copper-64, which has a known half-life of 12.7 hours, or 764 minutes.

  8. Minimum deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_deviation

    In a prism, the angle of deviation (δ) decreases with increase in the angle of incidence (i) up to a particular angle.This angle of incidence where the angle of deviation in a prism is minimum is called the minimum deviation position of the prism and that very deviation angle is known as the minimum angle of deviation (denoted by δ min, D λ, or D m).

  9. Intraocular lens power calculation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraocular_lens_power...

    The aim of an accurate intraocular lens power calculation is to provide an intraocular lens (IOL) that fits the specific needs and desires of the individual patient. The development of better instrumentation for measuring the eye's axial length (AL) and the use of more precise mathematical formulas to perform the appropriate calculations have significantly improved the accuracy with which the ...
