The F-variate, named after the statistician Ronald Fisher, crops up in statistics in the analysis of variance (amongst other things). Suppose you have a bivariate normal distribution. You calculate the sums of squares of the dependent variable that can be explained by regression and a residual sum of squares. Under the null hypothesis that there is no linear regression between the two variables (of the bivariate distribution), the ratio of the regression sum of squares divided by the residual sum of squares is distributed as an F-variate. There is a lot more to it, but not something that is easy to explain in this manner - particularly when I do not know your knowledge level.

coefficient of determination
r2, the coefficient of determination
The coefficient of simple determination tells the proportion of variance in one variable that can be accounted for (or explained) by variance in another variable. The coefficient of multiple determination is the Proportion of variance X and Y share with Z; or proportion of variance in Z that can be explained by X & Y.
Regression mean squares
If the regression sum of squares is the explained sum of squares. That is, the sum of squares generated by the regression line. Then you would want the regression sum of squares to be as big as possible since, then the regression line would explain the dispersion of the data well. Alternatively, use the R^2 ratio, which is the ratio of the explained sum of squares to the total sum of squares. (which ranges from 0 to 1) and hence a large number (0.9) would be preferred to (0.2).

r^2 , the square of the correlation coefficient represents the percentage of variation explained by the independent variable of the dependent variable. It varies between 0 and 100 percent. The user has to make his/her own judgment as to whether the obtained value of r^2 is good enough for him/her.
R squared also called the coefficient of determination is the portion (%) of the total variation of the dependent variable that is explained by the variation in the independent variable. This is found by dividing the sum of squared regression (SSR) by the total sum of square errors (SST) that is R^2 = SSR / SST.When there is a perfect linear relationship between the variation of the dependent variable y and the variation of the independent variable x R^2 is equal to 1.The R^2 for any weaker linear relationships will range between 0 and 1 exclusive.Finally when there is no relationship between the variations of the y as a result of the variation in x R^2 is equal to 0.
