Artificial data from triangles
Description
The data are the lengths of three sides of (hypothetical) right-angled triangles
Usage
data(triangle)
Format
A data frame with 20 observations on the following 3 variables.
ythe length of the hypotenuse;
a numeric vector
x1the length of one side of the triangle;
a numeric vector
x2the length of the third side of the triangle;
a numeric vector
Details
The data give the three sides of hypothetical right-angled triangles.
The data are randomly generated so that y is the square root of
x1^2 + x2^2,
plus a small amount of error.
The idea is from Gelman and Nolan (2002).
Source
The data are artificial; generated using R.
References
The idea is from
Andrew Gelman and Deborah Nolan (2002)
