Study Notes
Basic Arithmetic Operations
- Addition involves combining two or more numbers to find their sum.
- Subtraction involves finding the difference between two numbers.
- Multiplication involves repeated addition of a number.
- Division involves distributing a number into equal groups.
Number Systems
- Natural numbers (counting numbers): 1, 2, 3, ...
- Whole numbers: 0, 1, 2, 3, ...
- Integers: ..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...
- Rational numbers: numbers that can be expressed as a fraction p/q, where p and q are integers and q is not zero.
- Irrational numbers: numbers that cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers, such as pi (π) and the square root of 2 (√2).
- Real numbers: the set of all rational and irrational numbers.
- Complex numbers: numbers that can be expressed in the form a + bi, where a and b are real numbers and i is the imaginary unit (√-1).
Algebraic Expressions
- Variables: symbols that represent unknown values.
- Constants: fixed values.
- Terms: parts of an expression separated by addition or subtraction signs.
- Coefficients: numerical factors of variables in terms.
- Polynomials: algebraic expressions consisting of variables and coefficients, combined by addition, subtraction, and multiplication.
Equations and Inequalities
- Equations: statements that show the equality of two expressions.
- Solving equations: finding the values of variables that make the equation true.
- Inequalities: statements that show relationships of less than (<), greater than (>), less than or equal to (≤), or greater than or equal to (≥) between two expressions.
- Solving inequalities: finding the values of variables that make the inequality true.
Geometry
- Points, lines, and planes: fundamental building blocks for geometric shapes.
- Angles: formed by two rays sharing a common endpoint.
- Triangles: polygons with three sides and three angles.
- Quadrilaterals: polygons with four sides and four angles.
- Circles: shapes with all points equidistant from a central point.
- Perimeter: the distance around a two-dimensional shape.
- Area: the amount of space enclosed by a two-dimensional shape.
- Volume: the amount of space occupied by a three-dimensional shape.
Basic Geometry Theorems
- Pythagorean Theorem: for a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse (side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
Measurement
- Units of measurement: standard units for length, weight, volume, etc.
- Converting units involve using conversion factors to change values from one unit to another.
Functions
- Functions: relationships between input and output values
- Domain: all possible input values.
- Range: all possible output values.
- Graphing functions: visually representing the relationship between inputs and outputs.
Statistics
- Data collection: gathering information about variables or quantities.
- Measures of central tendency: mean, median, and mode; representing the center of a data set.
- Measures of dispersion: standard deviation and variance; showing data spread.
- Probability: the numerical measure of the likelihood of an event occurring.
Sets and Logic
- Sets: collections of objects, which may be finite or infinite.
- Logic: a systematic way to evaluate statements or arguments; using terms like 'and,' 'or,' 'if-then.'
- Venn diagrams: visual representations of relationships between sets.
