Rational Number • A number that can be written as a fraction.
Scientific Notation • Where a number is written in two parts:First: just the digits (with the decimal point placed after the first digit),Followed by: ×10 to a power that would put the decimal point back where it should be.
Perfect Square The product of a rational number multiplied by itself.
Irrational Number • a real number that cannot be expressed as a rational number.
Real Numbers a rational number or the limit of a sequence of rational numbers, as opposed to a complex number. Also called real.
Density Property The density property tells us that we can always find another real number that lies between any two real numbers
Adjacent angles • angles that have a common ray coming out of the vertex going between two.
Coefficient • A numerical or constant quantity placed before and multiplying the variable in an algebraic expression
Distance Formula • which is used to find the distance between two points is called the Distance Formula.
Domain • domain of a function is the set of "input" or argument values for which the function is defined
Hypotenuse • The longest side of a right triangle, opposite the right angle.
Legs of a right Triangle • a triangle in which one angle is a right angle (that is, a 90-degree angle).
Rational Number • any number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p/q of two integers
Range • range of a set of data is the difference between the largest and smallest values.
Slope • The slope of a line in the plane containing the x and y axes is generally represented by the letter m, and is defined as the change in the y coordinate divided by the corresponding change in the x coordinate, between two distinct points on the line. This is described by the following equation
Prism • A solid geometric figure whose two end faces are similar, equal, and parallel rectilinear figures, and whose sides are parallelograms.
Scatter plot • type of mathematical diagram using Cartesian coordinates to display values for two variables for a set of data.
Slope intercept form • The slope-intercept form is one way to write a linear equation (the equation of a line). The slope-intercept form is written as y = mx+b
Absolute Value • The magnitude of a real number without regard to its sign. The absolute value of a complex number a2+ ib
Exponent • The exponent of a number shows you how many times the number is to be used in a multiplication.It is written as a small number to the right and above the base number.
Pythagorean Theorem • square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other...
Product • product is the result of multiplying.
Acute Triangle • Less than 90° - all three angles are acute and so the triangle is acute
Probability • The extent to which something is probable
Factor • numbers you can multiply together to get another number
Variable • A variable is a symbol that stands for a value that may vary; the term usually occurs in opposition to constant
Evaluate • to determine or set the value
Quotient • The answer after you divide one number by another dividend ÷ divisor = quotient
Acute Angle • an angle less than 90 degrees but more than 0 degrees.
Congruent • Identical in form.
Reciprocal • A mathematical expression or function so related to another that their product is one; the quantity obtained by dividing the number one
Vertex • The highest point; the top or apex.
Polygon • A plane figure with at least three straight sides and angles, and typically five or more.
Diameter • A straight line passing from side to side through the center of a body or figure, esp. a circle or sphere.
Sum • Adding two numbers and getting the answer is the sum.
Dividend • Dividend is the number to be divided.
Divisor • Is the number that divides the dividend in a division problem.
Median • The middle number in a number set.
Mean • The mean is the average.
Mode • is the most frequently occurring value in a data set
Pyramid • A pyramid is a solid figure with a polygon base and all other faces triangles that meet at a common vertex.
Quadrilateral • A polygon with four sides.
Parallelogram • A four-sided plane rectilinear figure with opposite sides parallel.
Rectangle • A parallelogram having four rectangles.
Reflection • Reflection is the change in direction of a wave front at an interface between two different media
Rate • Rate is a ratio that compares two quantities
Trapezoid • A trapezoid is a four-sided figure with one pair of parallel sides.
Cylinder • A surface or solid bounded by two parallel planes and generated by a straight line moving parallel to the given planes.
