    Study Notes

    Math is the study of numbers and their relationships. It encompasses several areas such as arithmetic, algebra, geometry, calculus, and statistics. Arithmetic involves basic operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division with whole numbers, fractions, decimals, and percentages. Algebraic concepts include variables, equations, graphs, functions, and solving problems using formulas. Geometry deals with shapes like squares, circles, triangles, and polygons; it also includes angles and measurements. Calculus allows you to find slopes of lines by creating tangents to curves on a graph. Statistics focuses on collecting data, making predictions based on trends within those datasets, and determining probabilities related to that information. Knowledge of all these branches helps us understand the world around us and make informed decisions.
