  2. Sides of an equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sides_of_an_equation

    In mathematics, LHS is informal shorthand for the left-hand side of an equation. Similarly, RHS is the right-hand side . The two sides have the same value, expressed differently, since equality is symmetric .

  3. Equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation

    The expressions on the two sides of the equals sign are called the "left-hand side" and "right-hand side" of the equation. Very often the right-hand side of an equation is assumed to be zero. This does not reduce the generality, as this can be realized by subtracting the right-hand side from both sides. The most common type of equation is a ...

  4. Trigonometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonometry

    Trigonometry (from Ancient Greek τρίγωνον (trígōnon) 'triangle' and μέτρον (métron) 'measure') [1] is a branch of mathematics concerned with relationships between angles and side lengths of triangles. In particular, the trigonometric functions relate the angles of a right triangle with ratios of its side lengths.

  5. Angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle

    Two angles that share terminal sides, but differ in size by an integer multiple of a turn, are called coterminal angles. The reference angle (sometimes called related angle) for any angle θ in standard position is the positive acute angle between the terminal side of θ and the x-axis (positive or negative).

  6. Proofs of trigonometric identities - Wikipedia

    The sign of the square root needs to be chosen properly—note that if 2 π is added to θ, the quantities inside the square roots are unchanged, but the left-hand-sides of the equations change sign. Therefore, the correct sign to use depends on the value of θ. For the tan function, the equation is:

  7. Law (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_(mathematics)

    Pythagorean theorem: It states that the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the other two sides. The theorem can be written as an equation relating the lengths of the sides a, b and the hypotenuse c, sometimes called the Pythagorean equation: [6]

    A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula.
