The wave equation, \(\frac{\partial^2u}{\partial t^2}= c^2\nabla^2 u\), relates how \(u\) varies with time and with the spatial coordinates as a wave propagates with speed \(c\).

A famous irrational number, \(\pi = \frac{C}{d}\) is defined by the ratio of a circle's circumference (\(C\)) to its diameter (\(d\)).

The \(k\)th Fibonacci number can be written in closed form as \(F(k) = \frac{\varphi^k - (-\frac{1}{\varphi})^k}{\sqrt{5}}\), where \(\varphi\) is the celebrated golden ratio.
