Differential geometry quiz: 3 questions
Three questions on the Differential geometry card, the way WikiCards duels ask them. Pick an answer, the facts are just below.
Find the missing word
It uses the ______ of vector calculus, linear algebra and multilinear algebra.
Answer
techniques. It uses the techniques of vector calculus, linear algebra and multilinear algebra. From the Differential geometry article on Wikipedia.
Which of these cards hits hardest (highest ATK)?
Answer
File system. File system 82 · Differential geometry 75 · Hyperbolic functions 70 · African wild ass 67 ATK in WikiCards.
Which of these Wikipedia articles is read the most in a year?
Answer
Corrosion. Corrosion 570,000 · Hyperbolic functions 390,000 · Magnesium sulfate 200,000 · Differential geometry 110,000 Wikipedia reads over a year.
In a duel, each round asks a question like these about the opposing card, with 15 seconds to answer.
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It uses the techniques of vector calculus, linear algebra and multilinear algebra.
- The field has its origins in the study of spherical geometry as far back as antiquity.
- It also relates to astronomy, the geodesy of the Earth, and later the study of hyperbolic geometry by Lobachevsky.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Differential geometry article was read about 110,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 75 and blocks with 63: each hit it takes is cut by 25 %.
How to get Differential geometry
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
