Study Notes

Numbers

  • Natural Numbers: 1, 2, 3, ... (positive integers)
  • Whole Numbers: 0, 1, 2, 3, ... (non-negative integers)
  • Integers: ..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ... (positive and negative whole numbers)
  • Rational Numbers: fractions (e.g., 3/4, 22/7)
  • Irrational Numbers: non-repeating, non-terminating decimals (e.g., π, e)
  • Real Numbers: includes all rational and irrational numbers
  • Complex Numbers: numbers with real and imaginary parts (e.g., 3 + 4i)

Algebra

  • Variables: symbols representing unknown values (e.g., x, y)
  • Constants: numbers (e.g., 2, 5)
  • Expressions: combinations of variables and constants (e.g., 2x + 5)
  • Equations: statements with equal values (e.g., 2x + 5 = 11)
  • Inequalities: statements with unequal values (e.g., 2x + 5 > 11)

Geometry

  • Points: locations in space (e.g., A, B, C)
  • Lines: sets of points extending infinitely in two directions (e.g., AB)
  • Rays: portions of lines extending from a point (e.g., →AB)
  • Angles: formed by two rays sharing a common endpoint (e.g., ∠AOB)
  • Triangles: polygons with three sides (e.g., ΔABC)

Measurement

  • Units: standard quantities for measurement (e.g., meters, grams, seconds)
  • Conversion: changing units (e.g., inches to feet)
  • Ratios: comparisons of quantities (e.g., 3:4, 2:5)

Data Analysis

  • Data: collections of information (e.g., numbers, categories)
  • Graphs: visual representations of data (e.g., bar charts, histograms)
  • Statistics: numerical summaries of data (e.g., mean, median, mode)

Mathematical Operations

  • Addition: combining numbers (e.g., 2 + 3 = 5)
  • Subtraction: finding the difference (e.g., 5 - 2 = 3)
  • Multiplication: repeated addition (e.g., 2 × 3 = 6)
  • Division: sharing or grouping (e.g., 6 ÷ 2 = 3)
  • Exponents: shorthand for repeated multiplication (e.g., 2³ = 2 × 2 × 2)

Numbers

  • Natural numbers are positive integers, starting from 1.
  • Whole numbers include 0 and positive integers.
  • Integers include positive and negative whole numbers, as well as 0.
  • Rational numbers are fractions, such as 3/4 or 22/7.
  • Irrational numbers are non-repeating, non-terminating decimals, like π or e.
  • Real numbers include all rational and irrational numbers.
  • Complex numbers have real and imaginary parts, like 3 + 4i.

Algebra

  • Variables represent unknown values, like x or y.
  • Constants are numbers, such as 2 or 5.
  • Expressions combine variables and constants, like 2x + 5.

  • Inequalities are statements with unequal values, like 2x + 5 > 11.

Geometry

  • Points are locations in space, like A, B, or C.
  • Lines are sets of points extending infinitely in two directions, like AB.
  • Rays are parts of lines extending from a point, like →AB.
