    Study Notes

    Algebra

    • Study of variables and their relationships, often expressed through the use of symbols, equations, and functions
    • Key concepts:
      • Variables, constants, coefficients
      • Linear equations and inequalities
      • Quadratic equations and formulas
      • Graphing linear and quadratic functions
      • Systems of equations

    Calculus

    • Branch of mathematics dealing with rates of change and accumulation
    • Divided into two main branches:
      1. Differential Calculus
        • Study of rates of change and slopes of curves
        • Key concepts: limits, derivatives, differentials
      2. Integral Calculus
        • Study of accumulation of quantities
        • Key concepts: integrals, area under curves, volumes of solids

    Geometry

    • Study of shapes, sizes, and positions of objects
    • Key concepts:
      • Points, lines, angles, planes
      • Properties of 2D and 3D shapes (e.g. triangles, quadrilaterals, polygons, circles)
      • Theorems and postulates (e.g. Pythagorean theorem, congruent and similar triangles)

    Statistics

    • Study of collection, analysis, interpretation, presentation, and summary of data
    • Key concepts:
      • Types of data (quantitative, qualitative, categorical)
      • Measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode)
      • Measures of variability (range, variance, standard deviation)
      • Data visualization (e.g. histograms, box plots)

    Trigonometry

    • Study of relationships between sides and angles of triangles
    • Key concepts:
      • Angles, triangles, and trigonometric ratios (sine, cosine, tangent)
      • Identities and formulas (e.g. Pythagorean identity, sum and difference formulas)
      • Applications to triangles and waves (e.g. sound, light)

    Algebra

    • Algebra is a branch of mathematics that deals with variables and their relationships, often expressed through symbols, equations, and functions.
    • Variables, constants, and coefficients are key concepts in algebra.
    • Linear equations and inequalities, as well as quadratic equations and formulas, are essential topics in algebra.
    • Graphing linear and quadratic functions is an important aspect of algebra.
    • Systems of equations are also covered in algebra.

    Calculus

    • Theorems and postulates, like the Pythagorean theorem, congruent and similar triangles, are crucial in geometry.

    Statistics

    • Statistics is the study of collection, analysis, interpretation, presentation, and summary of data.
    • There are different types of data: quantitative, qualitative, and categorical.
    • Measures of central tendency, such as mean, median, and mode, are important in statistics.
    • Measures of variability, including range, variance, and standard deviation, are also essential.
    • Data visualization, including histograms and box plots, is a key aspect of statistics.
