Algebra
- Variables: represent unknown values and are denoted by letters or symbols
- Constants: are numbers that do not change value
- Expressions: are combinations of variables, constants, and mathematical operations
- Equations: are statements that two expressions are equal
- Inequalities: are statements that one expression is greater than, less than, or equal to another
Geometry
- Points: are locations in space, represented by coordinates (x, y)
- Lines: are sets of points that extend infinitely in two directions
- Rays: are lines that extend infinitely in one direction
- Angles: are formed by two rays sharing a common endpoint
- Triangles: are three-sided shapes with three vertices and three sides
Calculus
- Limits: describe the behavior of a function as the input approaches a certain value
