System of Equations

A set of equations with the same variables to solve for their values.

Trigonometric Functions

Functions that relate angles to side lengths in triangles, primarily sine, cosine, and tangent.

Derivative

A measure of how a function changes as its input changes; often represents the slope of the function.

Dimensional Analysis

A method to convert between different units using conversion factors.
