How can I find/understand the physical explanation or practical
meaning of a distance? For example Euclidean distance is the shortest
path between two points, how about for other distances?

Odly phrased big-oh question, have I done what is required? (because it's not really big-oh, it's more graph sketching)
I've encountered these before, but never phrased or defined as follows, I'd like to know if I've done whatever the question wants to draw attention to (if it didn't want to draw attention to something, why would it be so far from the conventional…

Why does the Hilbert transform produce the Hilbert envelope?
The Hilbert transform is often described as an improper integral.
It can be also characterized as a convolution between two functions.
But why is it these descriptions that produce the so called Hilbert envelope, which is the magnitude (i.e.…

Find the geometric interpretation of general solution
Here are the linear equation:
$$2x+z=0$$
$$-x+3y+z=0$$
$$-x+y+z=0$$
I have found that the general solution is,
$$t
\begin{bmatrix}
\frac{-1}2\\
\frac{-1}2 \\
1 \\
\end{bmatrix}
$$
The question asks me to find…

I'm trying to write a formula that represents the intersections points for $n$ circumferences. All of these circumferences intersect them to each other. Is there a good representation to explicit this concept?

Calculate Arc from Center of One AABB to Intersections of Another
I am working in the XY plane with two AABBs: the play space and a game object. My goal is to generate a random direction along their intersection going from the center of the game object in towards the play space. They should always intersect, but…
