2. Line (geometry) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_(geometry)

   e. In geometry, a straight line, usually abbreviated line, is an infinitely long object with no width, depth, or curvature, an idealization of such physical objects as a straightedge, a taut string, or a ray of light. Lines are spaces of dimension one, which may be embedded in spaces of dimension two, three, or higher.

3. Elementary mathematics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_mathematics

   Elementary mathematics, also known as primary or secondary school mathematics, is the study of mathematics topics that are commonly taught at the primary or secondary school levels around the world. It includes a wide range of mathematical concepts and skills, including number sense, algebra, geometry, measurement, and data analysis.

4. Geometry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometry

   Geometry(from Ancient Greek γεωμετρία(geōmetría) 'land measurement'; from γῆ(gê) 'earth, land' and μέτρον(métron) 'a measure')[1]is a branch of mathematicsconcerned with properties of space such as the distance, shape, size, and relative position of figures.[2] Geometry is, along with arithmetic, one of the oldest branches ...

   Glossary of mathematical symbols. 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. As formulas are entirely constituted with symbols of various ...

   Slope illustrated for y = (3/2)x − 1.Click on to enlarge Slope of a line in coordinates system, from f(x) = −12x + 2 to f(x) = 12x + 2. The slope of a line in the plane containing the x and y axes is generally represented by the letter m, [5] and is defined as the change in the y coordinate divided by the corresponding change in the x coordinate, between two distinct points on the line.

7. Arrangement of lines - Wikipedia

   A simplicial line arrangement (left) and a simple line arrangement (right). In geometry , an arrangement of lines is the subdivision of the plane formed by a collection of lines . Problems of counting the features of arrangements have been studied in discrete geometry , and computational geometers have found algorithms for the efficient ...
