    Numbers and Operations

    • Number Systems:

      • Natural Numbers (N): 1, 2, 3, ...
      • Whole Numbers (W): 0, 1, 2, 3, ...
      • Integers (Z): ..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...
      • Rational Numbers (Q): fractions, e.g. 3/4, 22/7
      • Real Numbers (R): including decimals and irrationals, e.g. Ï€, e
      • Complex Numbers (C): including imaginary numbers, e.g. 3 + 4i
    • Basic Operations:

      • Addition: a + b
      • Subtraction: a - b
      • Multiplication: a × b or a · b
      • Division: a ÷ b or a / b
      • Exponentiation: a^b
      • Roots: √a, ∛a, ...

    Algebra

    • Variables and Expressions:

      • Variables: letters or symbols representing unknown values, e.g. x, y
      • Constants: numbers, e.g. 2, 5
      • Algebraic Expressions: combinations of variables and constants, e.g. 2x + 3, x^2 - 4
    • Equations and Inequalities:

      • Linear Equations: ax + by = c, where a, b, and c are constants
      • Quadratic Equations: ax^2 + bx + c = 0, where a, b, and c are constants
      • Inequalities: statements involving >, <, ≥, or ≤, e.g. 2x + 3 > 5

    Geometry

    • Points, Lines, and Planes:

      • Points: locations in space, represented by coordinates (x, y, z)
      • Lines: sets of points extending infinitely in two directions
      • Planes: flat surfaces extending infinitely in all directions
    • Angles and Measurements:

      • Angles: formed by two rays sharing a common endpoint, measured in degrees
      • Perimeter: distance around a shape, e.g. triangle, rectangle
      • Area: size of a shape, e.g. triangle, circle

    Calculus

    • Limits:

      • Concept of a limit: approaching a value, but not necessarily reaching it
      • Rules of limits: sum, product, chain rule, etc.
    • Derivatives:

      • Definition: rate of change of a function with respect to a variable
      • Rules of differentiation: power rule, product rule, quotient rule, etc.
    • Integrals:

      • Definition: accumulation of a function over a given interval
      • Rules of integration: substitution, integration by parts, etc.

    Number Systems

    • Natural Numbers (N) include numbers from 1 to infinity
    • Whole Numbers (W) include 0 and all positive integers
    • Integers (Z) include all positive and negative whole numbers, including 0
    • Rational Numbers (Q) are fractions, such as 3/4 or 22/7
    • Real Numbers (R) include decimals and irrationals, such as Ï€ or e
    • Complex Numbers (C) include imaginary numbers, such as 3 + 4i

    Basic Operations

    • Addition is represented by the symbol '+'
    • Subtraction is represented by the symbol '-'
    • Multiplication can be represented by '×' or '·'
    • Division can be represented by '÷' or '/'
    • Exponentiation is represented by '^'
    • Roots can be represented by '√' or '∛'

    Algebra

    Variables and Expressions

    • Variables are letters or symbols representing unknown values
    • Constants are numbers, such as 2 or 5
    • Algebraic Expressions combine variables and constants, such as 2x + 3 or x^2 - 4

    Equations and Inequalities

    • Linear Equations are of the form ax + by = c, where a, b, and c are constants
    • Quadratic Equations are of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0, where a, b, and c are constants
    • Inequalities involve statements with >, <, ≥, or ≤

    Geometry

    Points, Lines, and Planes

    • Points are locations in space, represented by coordinates (x, y, z)
    • Lines are sets of points extending infinitely in two directions
    • Planes are flat surfaces extending infinitely in all directions
