Correlation defines a relationship between two independent variables. It tells the degree to which variables move in relation to each other. When two sets of data are related to each other, there is a correlation between them.

Linear Correlation

A correlation is used to determine the relationships between numerical and categorical variables. In other words, it is an indicator of how things are connected to one another. The correlation analysis is the study of how variables are related.

Regression Analysis

Regression analysis is a statistical method in which it estimates the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variable. In simple terms dependent variable is called as outcome variable and independent variable is called as p…

A convex polygon is said to be regular if all of its sides have the same length and all angles between sides are the same. Let Pr denote the regular convex n-sided polygon. Thus, P3 is the equilateral triangle, P₁ is the square, P is the pentagon etc. Compute a formula for the size of any internal angle of Pn.

+ Recall that a map, f: R2 R², is an isometry if |P-Q| = |ƒ(P) — ƒ (Q) for all pairs of points P and Q in R². Thus, f is a distance preserving map. Show that an isometry, f: R² → R² also preserves angles. In other words if two line segments meeting at a point determine an angle a, their image line segments meeting at the image of that point also determine the angle a.
