Study Notes
Basic Arithmetic Operations
- Addition: Combining two or more numbers to find a total. Commutative property: order doesn't matter (a + b = b + a). Associative property: grouping doesn't matter ((a + b) + c = a + (b + c)).
- Subtraction: Finding the difference between two numbers. Inverse operation of addition.
- Multiplication: Repeated addition of the same number. Commutative and associative properties also apply. Distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac.
- Division: Finding how many times one number is contained within another. Inverse operation of multiplication. Division by zero is undefined.
Number Systems
- Natural numbers (counting numbers): 1, 2, 3,...
- Whole numbers: 0, 1, 2, 3,... Includes natural numbers and zero.
- Integers:..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3,... Includes whole numbers and their negative counterparts.
- Rational numbers: Numbers that can be expressed as a fraction p/q, where p and q are integers and q is not zero. Includes terminating and repeating decimals.
- Irrational numbers: Numbers that cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers. Examples include π and the square root of 2.
- Real numbers: The set of all rational and irrational numbers.
Algebra
- Variables: Symbols (like x, y, z) used to represent unknown values.
- Equations: Statements that show the equality of two expressions. Examples: 2x + 3 = 7, y² = 9.
- Inequalities: Statements that show the relationship between two expressions that are not necessarily equal. Examples: x > 5, 2y ≤ 10.
- Linear equations: Equations that form a straight line on a graph. General form: Ax + By = C.
- Polynomials: Expressions consisting of variables and coefficients combined using addition, subtraction, and multiplication.
- Factoring: Expressing a polynomial as a product of simpler polynomials.
- Exponents: Repeated multiplication of a number by itself.
- Roots: The opposite of an exponent.
Geometry
- Points: Basic building blocks of geometry.
- Lines: One-dimensional figures with no thickness.
- Planes: Two-dimensional figures.
- Angles: Formed by two rays sharing a common endpoint.
- Polygons: Figures formed by line segments.
- Triangles: Three-sided polygons. Types include equilateral, isosceles, scalene, right, acute, obtuse.
- Quadrilaterals: Four-sided polygons.
- Circles: A set of points equidistant from a center point.
- Perimeter: The distance around a two-dimensional shape.
- Area: The space enclosed by a two-dimensional shape.
- Volume: The space occupied by a three-dimensional shape.
- Pythagorean theorem: In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides (a² + b² = c²).
Data Analysis
- Measures of central tendency: Mean (average), median (middle value), mode (most frequent value).
- Measures of dispersion: Range, variance, standard deviation (how spread out the data is).
- Data representation: Tables, charts, graphs (histograms, bar charts, scatter plots).
Set Theory
- Sets: Collections of objects.
- Subsets: A set whose members are also members of another set.
- Union: Combining sets to form a larger set containing all elements.
- Intersection: Finding the elements that are common to two or more sets.
Functions
- Functions: A relation where each input has only one output. Represented with notation like f(x) =...
- Domain and range: Domain is the set of possible inputs (x-values); range is the set of possible outputs (y-values).
- Linear functions: Functions that graph as straight lines.
- Quadratic functions: Functions that graph as parabolas.
- Exponential functions: Functions where the input appears as an exponent.
Trigonometry
- Trigonometric functions: Relate angles and sides of right-angled triangles (sine, cosine, tangent, etc.).
- Unit circle: A circle with a radius of 1 unit centered at the origin in a coordinate plane. Trigonometric functions are defined using this circle.
- Special angles: Common angles like 30°, 45°, 60°, and 90° have specific values for trigonometric functions.
- Applications: Trigonometry is used in navigation, surveying, and engineering.
Calculus
- Limits: Approaching a value.
- Derivatives: Rate of change.
- Integrals: Accumulated change.
- Applications: Calculus is used in physics, engineering, and economics.
