The [[Twelfth Doctor]] once used the '''squeeze theorem''' to prove that <math>\lim_{\theta\to 0} \frac {sin \theta} {\theta} = 1</math>. During the [[Mathematical proof|demonstration]], the Doctor used [[Mathematics|mathematical]] concepts such as [[sine|sin]], [[cosine|cos]], [[tangent|tan]], [[inequality|inequalities]] and [[limit]].

Although the name "squeeze theorem" wasn't used, and the demonstration wasn't explained by the Doctor, it is a faily basic [[differential calculus]] theorem, and can be recognised by the viewers.
