    ABSTRACT: Mathematics has become part of our life. Graph Theory is a branch of mathematics that plays a major role in every field of human being. In this paper we define different matrices associated with the Graphs along with some properties of a graph. And Rank of rank of an incidence matrix. Key Words: Adjacency matrix, Incidence matrix, Degree matrix, Circuit matrix and Line graph. INTRODUCTION: Incidence Matrix is one of methods of representing the graph. Let G = (V,E) be graph whose vertices

    of mathematics involved with the calculation of varying quantities (Rohde et al. 1). It is considered significant because it provides principles required to calculate quantities that cannot be calculated using other mathematical concepts such as algebra or geometry (Rohde et al. 1; and Ledder 5 ). Most of its concepts apply deductive thinking making it one of the most applied mathematical concepts in real life situations. Like most mathematical branches calculus is

    Pi and algebra both are necessary. Pi does have applications in the real world that some mathematical topics just don’t have. A famous Egyptian piece of papyrus gives us another ancient estimation for pi. Dated around 1650 BC, the Rhind Papyrus was written by a

    41), I.26 (pg. 43), I.27 (pg. 44), I.29 (pg. 45), and I.32 (pg.46). These propositions set the stage for the ‘great theorem’ of chapter 2 “Euclid’s proof of the Pythagorean Theorem.” This proof is important because, until this point in history, a formal written explanation and proof was not existent despite its wide acceptance as truth. Proposition I.47 states, “In right-angled triangles, the square

    Improvements to the Ideal Gas law for substances at high temperature and pressure is accomplished via van der Waals model; which tweaks the ideal gas law formula by accounting for the volume the substances molecules and the intermolecular forces between molecules. These small changes greatly improve predicting the properties of pure substances, such as the solid/liquid/gas phase boundary for pure substances I was initially unclear as to the texts description explaining liquid-gas interaction, ..

    • 19 Pages

    Though there is no trigonometry in the works of Euclid and Archimedes, there are theorems presented in a geometric method that are similar to particular trigonometric laws or rules. Theorems on the lengths of chords are applications of the law of sines. In addition Archimedes' theorem on broken chords is similar to rules for sines of sums and differences of angles. From the primitive landmarks of shadow tables and the Greeks’ gain
