Descartes' circle theorem (a.k.a. the kissing circle theorem) provides a quadratic equation satisfied by the radii of four mutually tangent circles. By solving this equation, one can determine the possible values for the radius of a fourth circle tangent to three given, mutually tangent circles.
24 Ιαν 2022 · Theorem (Descartes circle theorem, 1643) If b 1;b 2;b 3;b 4 are bends of four mutually tangent circles, then (b 1 + b 2 + b 3 + b 4) 2 = 2(b2 1 + b 2 2 + b 2 3 + b 2 4): Example 0 0 1 1 b 1 = b 2 = 0, b 3 = b 4 = 1 (0 + 0 + 1 + 1)2 = 22 = 4 2(02 + 02 + 12 + 12) = 2(2) = 4 Edna Jones The Descartes circle theorem
15 Απρ 2019 · We will give a straightforward proof of Descartes’s theorem, using only elementary algebra and Heron’s formula for the area of a triangle. A Short History of Descartes’s Circle Theorem Descartes’s circle theorem was first described by Descartes in 1643 in his correspondence with Princess Elisabeth of Bohemia, one of his pupils [ 5 ].
As a practicing life scientist, Descartes must have a theory of what it means to be a living being. In this paper, I provide an account of what his theoretical conception of living bodies must be. I then show that this conception might well run afoul of his rejection...

It is shown that Descartes. concept of laws of nature from the mathematical tradition, but recognized he could not export it to the domain of physico-mathematics, to play a causal unless he could show that these laws were underwritten by God.
A Short History of Descartes’s Circle Theorem. Descartes’s circle theorem was first described by Descartes in 1643 in his correspondence with Princess Elisabeth of Bohemia, one of his pupils [5]. In a letter to her, Descartes posed the following problem [4]: which is Apollonius’s problem.
