138 (one hundred [and] thirty-eight) is the natural number following 137 and preceding 139.
Mathematics
[edit]138 is a sphenic number,[1] and the smallest product of three primes such that in base 10, the third prime is a concatenation of the other two: .[a] It is also a one-step palindrome in decimal (138 + 831 = 969).
138 has eight total divisors that generate an arithmetic mean of 36,[2] which is the eighth triangular number.[3] While the sum of the digits of 138 is 12, the product of its digits is 24.[4]
138 is an Ulam number,[5] the thirty-first abundant number,[6] and a primitive (square-free) congruent number.[7] It is the first non-trivial 47-gonal number.[8]
As an interprime, 138 lies between the eleventh pair of twin primes (137, 139),[9] respectively the 33rd and 34th prime numbers.[10]
It is the sum of two consecutive primes (67 + 71),[11] and the sum of four consecutive primes (29 + 31 + 37 + 41).[12]
There are a total of 44 numbers that are relatively prime with 138 (and up to),[13] while 22 is its reduced totient.[14]
138 is the denominator of the twenty-second Bernoulli number (whose respective numerator, is 854513).[15][16]
A magic sum of 138 is generated inside four magic circles that features the first thirty-three non-zero integers, with a 9 in the center (first constructed by Yang Hui).[b]
The simplest Catalan solid, the triakis tetrahedron, produces 138 stellations (depending on rules chosen),[c] 44 of which are fully symmetric and 94 of which are enantiomorphs.[17]
Using two radii to divide a circle according to the golden ratio yields sectors of approximately 138 degrees (the golden angle), and 222 degrees.
In media
[edit]- "We Are 138", a 1978 song by the American punk rock band Misfits.
- Who's Afraid of 138!? is a trance record label operated by Dutch DJ Armin van Buuren, as a reference to the use of 138 BPM in some forms of trance music.[18][19]
Notes
[edit]- ^ The only other number less than 1000 in decimal with this property is 777 = 3 × 7 × 37.
- ^ This magic sum is generated from points that simultaneously lie on circles and diagonals, and, importantly, without including 9 in this sum (i.e. by bypassing it).
- ^ Using a different set of rules than Miller's rules for stellating polyhedra. For example, by Miller's rules, the triakis tetrahedron produces a total of 188 stellations, 136 of which are chiral. Using this same set of (Miller) rules, its dual polyhedron, the truncated tetrahedron, produces only 9 stellations, without including the truncated tetrahedron.
