Algebra
- Branch of mathematics focused on symbols and their manipulation rules.
- Variables serve as symbols for unknown values, commonly represented as letters like x and y.
- Expressions are combinations of variables and constants, such as 2x + 3.
- Equations convey a mathematical statement asserting equality, for example, 2x + 3 = 7.
- Functions describe relationships between input and output sets, exemplified by f(x) = x².
- Fundamental operations include addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
- Factoring involves expressing an equation as a product of its factors, simplifying complex expressions.
- Solving Equations is the process of determining the values of variables that satisfy given equations.
Geometry
- Study focused on the properties of shapes, sizes, and spatial relationships.
- Basic elements include Points, Lines, and Planes, which form the foundation of geometric understanding.
- Angles are created by two rays sharing a common endpoint and measured in degrees.
- Triangles, classified as equilateral, isosceles, or scalene based on sides, and acute, right, or obtuse based on angles.
- Circles are defined by their center and radius, with key metrics including circumference and area.
- Polygons consist of closed figures with straight sides, featuring types like quadrilaterals and pentagons.
- 3D Shapes encompass geometric figures such as cubes, spheres, and cylinders, requiring calculations for volume and surface area.
Number Theory
- Focuses on the properties and relationships of numbers, particularly integers.
- Prime Numbers are natural numbers greater than 1 with no positive divisors other than 1 and themselves.
- Composite Numbers are natural numbers greater than 1 that have more than two distinct positive divisors.
- Divisibility Rules help determine if one number can be divided by another without any remainder.
- The Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) is the largest integer dividing two or more numbers without leaving a remainder.
- The Least Common Multiple (LCM) is the smallest integer that can be evenly divided by two or more numbers.
- Modular Arithmetic operates with integers in a system where numbers reset after reaching a defined value, known as modulus.
