{{distinguish|Quadratic|Quartic}}
In mathematics, a '''quadric''', or '''quadric surface''', is any ''D''-dimensional [[hypersurface]] in (''D''&nbsp;+&nbsp;1)-dimensional space defined as  the [[locus (mathematics)|locus]] of [[root of a function|zeros]] of a [[quadratic polynomial]]. In coordinates {{nowrap|{''x''<sub>1</sub>, ''x''<sub>2</sub>, ..., ''x''<sub>''D''+1</sub>}}}, the general quadric is defined by the [[algebraic equation]]<ref name="geom">Silvio Levy [http://www.geom.uiuc.edu/docs/reference/CRC-formulas/node61.html Quadrics] in "Geometry Formulas and Facts", excerpted from 30th Edition of ''CRC Standard Mathematical Tables and Formulas'', [[CRC Press]], from [[The Geometry Center]] at [[University of Minnesota]]</ref>
 
:<math>
\sum_{i,j=1}^{D+1} x_i Q_{ij} x_j + \sum_{i=1}^{D+1} P_i  x_i + R = 0
</math>
 
which may be compactly written in vector and matrix notation as:
 
:<math>
x Q x^T + P x^T + R = 0\,
</math>
 
where x = {{nowrap|{''x''<sub>1</sub>, ''x''<sub>2</sub>, ..., ''x''<sub>''D''+1</sub>}}} is a row [[vector (geometry)|vector]], ''x''<sup>T</sup> is the [[transpose]] of x (a column vector), ''Q'' is a (''D''&nbsp;+&nbsp;1)&times;(''D''&nbsp;+&nbsp;1) [[matrix (mathematics)|matrix]] and ''P'' is a (''D''&nbsp;+&nbsp;1)-dimensional row vector and ''R'' a scalar constant.  The values ''Q'', ''P'' and ''R'' are often taken to be [[real number]]s or [[complex number]]s, but in fact, a quadric may be defined over any [[ring (mathematics)|ring]].  In general, the locus of zeros of a set of [[polynomial]]s is known as an [[algebraic variety]], and is studied in the branch of [[algebraic geometry]].
 
A quadric is thus an example of an algebraic variety. For the projective theory see [[quadric (projective geometry)]].
 
== Euclidean plane and space ==
 
Quadrics in the [[Euclidean plane]] are those of dimension ''D''&nbsp;=&nbsp;1, which is to say that they are [[curve]]s.  Such quadrics are the same as [[conic section]]s, and are typically known as conics rather than quadrics.

In [[Euclidean space]], quadrics have dimension ''D''&nbsp;=&nbsp;2, and are known as '''quadric surfaces'''. By making a suitable Euclidean change of variables, any quadric in Euclidean space can be put into a certain normal form by choosing as the coordinate directions the [[principal axis theorem|principal axes]] of the quadric. In three-dimensional Euclidean space there are 16 such normal forms.<ref>[http://inspirehep.net/author/S.A.Khan.5/ Sameen Ahmed Khan],[http://indapt.org/images/stories/bulletin2010/bulletin_november_2010.pdf Quadratic Surfaces in Science and Engineering], Bulletin of the IAPT, 2(11), 327-330 (November 2010).

Of these 16 forms, five are nondegenerate, and the remaining are degenerate forms.

== Projective geometry ==
The quadrics can be treated in a uniform manner by introducing [[homogeneous coordinates]] on a Euclidean space, thus effectively regarding it as a [[projective space]]. Thus if the original (affine) coordinates on '''R'''<sup>''D''+1</sup> are
:<math>(x_1,\dots,x_{D+1})</math>
one introduces new coordinates on '''R'''<sup>''D''+2</sup>
:<math>[X_0,\dots,X_{D+1}]</math>
related to the original coordinates by <math>x_i=X_i/X_0</math>. In the new variables, every quadric is defined by an equation of the form
:<math>Q(X)=\sum_{ij} a_{ij}X_iX_j=0\,</math>
where the coefficients ''a''<sub>''ij''</sub> are symmetric in ''i'' and ''j''.  Regarding ''Q''(''X'')&nbsp;=&nbsp;0 as an equation in [[projective space]] exhibits the quadric as a projective [[algebraic variety]].  The quadric is said to be '''non-degenerate''' if the quadratic form is non-singular; equivalently, if the [[matrix (mathematics)|matrix]] (''a''<sub>''ij''</sub>) is [[invertible matrix|invertible]].
 
In [[real projective space]], by [[Sylvester's law of inertia]], a non-singular [[quadratic form]] ''Q''(''X'') may be put into the normal form
 
:<math>Q(X) = \pm X_0^2 \pm X_1^2 \pm\cdots\pm X_{D+1}^2</math>  
 
by means of a suitable [[projective transformation]] (normal forms for singular quadrics can have zeros as well as ±1 as coefficients). For surfaces in space (dimension ''D''&nbsp;=&nbsp;2) there are exactly three nondegenerate cases:
 
:<math>Q(X) = \begin{cases}
X_0^2+X_1^2+X_2^2+X_3^2\\
X_0^2+X_1^2+X_2^2-X_3^2\\
X_0^2+X_1^2-X_2^2-X_3^2
\end{cases}
</math>
 
The first case is the empty set.
 
The second case generates the ellipsoid, the elliptic paraboloid or the hyperboloid of two sheets, depending on whether the chosen plane at infinity cuts the quadric in the empty set, in a point, or in a nondegenerate conic respectively. These all have positive [[Gaussian curvature]].
 
The third case generates the hyperbolic paraboloid or the hyperboloid of one sheet, depending on whether the plane at infinity cuts it in two lines, or in a nondegenerate conic respectively. These are doubly [[ruled surface]]s of negative Gaussian curvature.
 
The degenerate form
:<math>X_0^2-X_1^2-X_2^2=0</math>.
generates the elliptic cylinder, the parabolic cylinder, the hyperbolic cylinder, or the cone, depending on whether the plane at infinity cuts it in a point, a line, two lines, or a nondegenerate conic respectively. These are singly ruled surfaces of zero Gaussian curvature.
 
We see that projective transformations don't mix Gaussian curvatures of different sign. This is true for general surfaces. <ref>S. Lazebnik and J. Ponce, {{cite web|url=http://www-cvr.ai.uiuc.edu/ponce_grp/publication/paper/ijcv04b.pdf|title=The Local Projective Shape of Smooth Surfaces and Their Outlines}}, Proposition 1</ref>
 
In [[complex projective space]] all of the nondegenerate quadrics become indistinguishable from each other.

The body mass chart is a useful instrument for checking when you've a healthy weight for your height. Merely remember it's just a guide. You'll be capable to furthermore choose some of the fat charts on this page to check if you're underweight, obese or just right. The BMI chart has absolutely done the reckonings for we. It demonstrates the healthy, underweight, overweight plus overweight grades for individual weights and heights. Only find the point where a weight meets a height.

The BMI of the individual is calculated by dividing his/her fat (pounds) by the square of his/her height (inches) and multiplying with 703. This index indicates if a individual is underweight, normal, obese or obese. After is a standard bmi chart for adults.

He asked me for advice, which I was more than happy to provide. A year later, Jim has not only lost many bmi chart men pounds, however also felt greater and more energetic. He is now not only able to rest properly however also perform his standard activities without a problem. He is constantly full of vitality plus enthusiasm!

Another advantage of green leafy veggies is that they provide phytonutrients, which are compounds mandatory for sustaining human health by preventing cell damage, preventing cancer cell replication plus lowering cholesterol levels. They also are a source of vitamins C, E, E plus countless of the B vitamins. Dark green leafy veggies contain tiny amounts of omega-3 fats.

Training Programs: A little planning goes a long way. If possible, try to plan a training to run more often on softer surfaces like trails, dirt roads, grassy parks, or the track. A limited wise programs are on the resource page. There are numerous superior ones out there--find 1 that matches we.

Second, tall persons are at greater risk of early mortality than folks of average height. Since the BMI tends to flag tall folks bmi chart women because being obese, it's more helpful in setting lifetime insurance costs than one would expect at initial blush. With BMI because the rationale, insurance companies can charge somewhat higher (plus more realistic) life insurance costs for tall persons, without appearing to be discriminatory.

However, it uses the U.S. Navy Circumference Method which usually need the input of information for it to be able to resolve for the body fat percentage. The readings will be put into a body fat chart for the person to be able to monitor the decrease or heighten of body fat percentage.

Additionally to weight training plus aerobic exercise, overcoming a taste for fat can help you slim down. Your ideal women's clothing size can rely on whether you're tiny, medium or large frame; whether you may be a pear or hourglass shape plus whether we have excess skin/fat from pregnancies or being obese. Maintain good exercise plus eating habits plus you might discover a modern skinny jean size that proves it's not all inside the genes!
