Given a function: from a set X (the domain) to a set Y (the codomain), the graph of the function is the set [4] = {(, ()):}, which is a subset of the Cartesian product.In the definition of a function in terms of set theory, it is common to identify a function with its graph, although, formally, a function is formed by the triple consisting of its domain, its codomain and its graph.
In graph theory, Graph equations are equations in which the unknowns are graphs. One of the central questions of graph theory concerns the notion of isomorphism. We ask: When are two graphs the same? (i.e., graph isomorphism) The graphs in question may be expressed differently in terms of graph equations. [1]
For example, a circle of radius 2, centered at the origin of the plane, may be described as the set of all points whose coordinates x and y satisfy the equation x 2 + y 2 = 4; the area, the perimeter and the tangent line at any point can be computed from this equation by using integrals and derivatives, in a way that can be applied to any curve.
Here (X c, Y c) is the center of the ellipse, and φ is the angle between the x-axis and the major axis of the ellipse. Both parameterizations may be made rational by using the tangent half-angle formula and setting tan t 2 = u . {\textstyle \tan {\frac {t}{2}}=u\,.}
The solutions –1 and 2 of the polynomial equation x 2 – x + 2 = 0 are the points where the graph of the quadratic function y = x 2 – x + 2 cuts the x-axis. In general, an algebraic equation or polynomial equation is an equation of the form =, or = [a]
Vertical line of equation x = a Horizontal line of equation y = b. Each solution (x, y) of a linear equation + + = may be viewed as the Cartesian coordinates of a point in the Euclidean plane. With this interpretation, all solutions of the equation form a line, provided that a and b are not both zero. Conversely, every line is the set of all ...
Equivalently, this is the graph of the bivariate quadratic equation = + +. If a > 0, the parabola opens upwards. If a < 0, the parabola opens downwards. The coefficient a controls the degree of curvature of the graph; a larger magnitude of a gives the graph a more closed (sharply curved) appearance.
