Point on plane closest to origin — In Euclidean 3 space we will find the point on an arbitrary plane that is closest to the origin using the method of Lagrange multipliers. First, let us start with an arbitrary plane, ax + by + cz = d. The distance, L, from the origin to a point… … Wikipedia
Distance of closest approach of ellipses and ellipsoids — The distance of closest approach of two objects is the distance between their centers when they are externally tangent. The objects may be geometric shapes or physical particles with well defined boundaries. The distance of closest approach is… … Wikipedia
Floating point — In computing, floating point describes a method of representing real numbers in a way that can support a wide range of values. Numbers are, in general, represented approximately to a fixed number of significant digits and scaled using an exponent … Wikipedia
