Heron's Formula

Hero of Alexandra was a great mathematician who derived the formula for the calculation of the area of a triangle using the length of all three sides. This derived formula is called as Heron’s formula. He also extended this idea to find the area of quadrilaterals and also higher order polygons.

Today in my class I read some questions in the subject learning and teaching and then I read some questions in the subject contemporary India and education. Then I learnt how to make it the fixed table. Then I learnt about surya namaskar benefits and yoga. And then that benefits and steps follows in the figures.

CIRCLE

Image
This article is about the shape and mathematical concept. For other uses, see  Circle (disambiguation) . "360 degrees" and "360°" redirect here. For other uses, see  360 degrees (disambiguation) . Circle A circle (black), which is measured by its circumference ( C ), diameter ( D ) in cyan, and radius ( R ) in red; its centre ( O ) is in magenta. A  circle  is a simple closed  shape . It is the set of all  points  in a  plane  that are at a given distance from a given point, the  centre ; equivalently it is the curve traced out by a point that moves so that its distance from a given point is  constant . The distance between any of the points and the centre is called the  radius . This article is about circles in  Euclidean geometry , and, in particular, the Euclidean plane, except where otherwise noted.

parallel lines

Image
Parallel Lines Lines that lie in the same plane and do not meet one another are said to be  parallel lines . In the accompanying diagram, the line  AB  is parallel to the line  CD .  This is indicated by the similar arrows. Drawing Parallel Lines A ruler and  set square  can be used to draw  parallel lines  as described below. Step 1:   Position an edge of the set square against a ruler and draw a line along one of the other edges. Step 2:   Slide the set square into a new position while keeping the ruler fixed exactly at the same position. Step 3:   Draw a line along the same edge that was used in Step 1.
