    Study Notes

    Function Symmetry

    • A function f(t) is said to have even symmetry if f(t) = f(-t).

    Significant Figures

    • The number 0.01414 has four significant figures.

    Naperian Logarithm

    • The base of the Naperian logarithm is approximately 2.72.

    Curves and Derivatives

    • A curve whose second derivative is the negative of the original equation is classified as a sinusoid.

    Triangle Angles

    • To find the angle of a triangle from the lengths of its sides, utilize the law of cosines.

    Signs of Natural Functions

    • In the range of 90 to 180 degrees, the cosine function is negative.

    Inverse Functions

    • The inverse natural function of the cosecant is the sine function.

    Cumulative Frequency Distribution

    • The ogive is the graphical representation of a cumulative frequency distribution.

    Theorems and Proofs

    • A statement that follows with little or no proof from a theorem is known as a corollary.

    Frequency Curves

    • A histogram represents frequency curves through rectangles based on steps as the base and frequency as height.

    Number Sequences

    • A sequence where successive terms differ by a constant is referred to as an arithmetic progression.

    Roots of Equations

    • Equations with roots of zero are categorized as trivial solutions.

    Convergent Series

    • A convergent series is recognized when the succeeding term is lesser than the preceding term.

    Axioms in Algebra

    • The symmetric axiom in algebra states if a = b, then b = a.

    Probability of Events

    • For independent events A and B, the probability that B occurs can be found using Pab/Pa.

    Equations and Solution Sets

    • Two equations are equal if they have the same solution set.

    Determinants of Square Matrices

    • When any two rows of a square matrix are identical, the determinant equals zero.

    Ratio and Proportions

    • A constant of variation denotes the ratio or product of two expressions that are directly or inversely related.

    Harmonic Progression

    • A harmonic progression consists of terms whose reciprocals create an arithmetic progression.

    Matrix Definition

    • A matrix is defined as an array of m x n quantities, organized in rows and columns.

    Binary Number System

    • The binary number system, reflecting a base-2 notation, is also known as the dyadic number system.

    Rational Numbers

    • The repeating decimal 0.123123123... is classified as a rational number.

    Roman Numerals

    • The Roman numeral MCMXCIV corresponds to 1994.
