From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or ...

The incenter of a triangle, a point of concurrency, holds a special place in geometry. It's not just a random spot inside a triangle; it's the meeting point of all three angle bisectors, and it's also ...

NCERT’s recently released Class 7 mathematics textbook includes multiple mentions of ancient Indian contributions to the subject and says concepts such as algebra were first developed by Indian ...

Class 7's Ganita Prakash Part 2 revolutionizes math learning by connecting modern concepts to India's rich mathematical heritage. Highlighting figures like Brahmagupta and Bhaskaracharya, it reveals ...

Abstract: A perpendicular bisector solution of perceptron and a perpendicular bisector constraint on artificial neural network(ANN) are studied in this paper. As is known, both Preceptron and ...

This is an updated version of a story first published on May 5, 2024. For many high school students returning to class, it may seem like geometry and trigonometry were created by the Greeks as a form ...

Horizontal lines run left to right, parallel to the horizon, with slope 0 and equation y = k. Vertical lines run top to bottom, perpendicular to the horizon, with undefined slope and equation x = k.

In addition to being one of the most fun words to say—and hardest to spell—in English, “onomatopoeia” probably calls to mind a whole bunch of silly, fun words. Onomatopoeia is the process of creating ...

Bullying is a form of aggressive, potentially violent behavior. Bullying can occur at school, online, in the workplace, or at home. It can also be grounded in prejudice. Bullying is an aggressive ...

A perpendicular bisector is a line segment that is perpendicular to another line segment and passes through its midpoint. In geometry, it is often used to construct angles, triangles, and circles.
