  2. Functional square root - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_square_root

    In mathematics, a functional square root (sometimes called a half iterate) is a square root of a function with respect to the operation of function composition. In other words, a functional square root of a function g is a function f satisfying f ( f ( x )) = g ( x ) for all x .

  3. Conjugate (square roots) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_(square_roots)

    In mathematics, the conjugate of an expression of the form is provided that does not appear in a and b. One says also that the two expressions are conjugate. In particular, the two solutions of a quadratic equation are conjugate, as per the in the quadratic formula . Complex conjugation is the special case where the square root is the imaginary ...

  4. YBC 7289 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YBC_7289

    YBC 7289 is a Babylonian clay tablet notable for containing an accurate sexagesimal approximation to the square root of 2, the length of the diagonal of a unit square. This number is given to the equivalent of six decimal digits, "the greatest known computational accuracy ... in the ancient world". [1] The tablet is believed to be the work of a ...

  5. Root mean square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_mean_square

    In mathematics, the root mean square (abbrev. RMS, RMS or rms) of a set of numbers is the square root of the set's mean square. [1] Given a set , its RMS is denoted as either or . The RMS is also known as the quadratic mean (denoted ), [2] [3] a special case of the generalized mean. The RMS of a continuous function is denoted and can be defined ...

  6. Quadratic formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_formula

    Quadratic formula. The roots of the quadratic function y = 1 2 x2 − 3x + 5 2 are the places where the graph intersects the x -axis, the values x = 1 and x = 5. They can be found via the quadratic formula. In elementary algebra, the quadratic formula is a closed-form expression describing the solutions of a quadratic equation.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_musical_symbols

    Musical symbols are marks and symbols in musical notation that indicate various aspects of how a piece of music is to be performed. There are symbols to communicate information about many musical elements, including pitch, duration, dynamics, or articulation of musical notes; tempo, metre, form (e.g., whether sections are repeated), and details about specific playing techniques (e.g., which ...

  9. Root-raised-cosine filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root-raised-cosine_filter

    In signal processing, a root-raised-cosine filter ( RRC ), sometimes known as square-root-raised-cosine filter ( SRRC ), is frequently used as the transmit and receive filter in a digital communication system to perform matched filtering. This helps in constraining the occupied bandwidth of the waveform without introducing intersymbol ...
