As exercise physiologist Harry Pino tells io9, muscle cells don't actually convert into fat, which is a common myth. What really happens is that the muscle cells - which are completely different than fat cells - become smaller, because now you donât have a demand of power and strength - theyâre not growing, he says.
The composition of two reflections across two parallel lines is equivalent to a translation. The translation vector is perpendicular to the lines. The length of the translation vector is twice the distance between the lines. The composition of two reflections across two intersecting lines is equivalent to a rotation. The center of rotation is the intersection of the lines. The angle of rotation is twice the measure of the angle formed by the lines.
The third line that intersects the two lines is called the transversal. Co-interior angles always lie on the same side of the transversal, never on opposite sides. The sum of a pair of co-interior angles is always equal to 180 degrees if the two lines are parallel to each other. When the two lines are not parallel, the sum of the two co-interior angles would not be exactly 180 degrees. This is an important axiom in geometry.
