  2. Complex number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_number

    The study of functions of a complex variable is known as complex analysis and has enormous practical use in applied mathematics as well as in other branches of mathematics. Often, the most natural proofs for statements in real analysis or even number theory employ techniques from complex analysis (see prime number theorem for an example).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_wall

    High schools teachers use word walls in their respective content areas to teach spelling, vocabulary words, and mathematics symbols. [ 6 ] Word walls are considered to be interactive and collaborative tools, as they are a student-created learning artifact due to their flexible nature and ability to "grow" alongside the students.

  4. 5-cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-cell

    In geometry, the 5-cell is the convex 4-polytope with Schläfli symbol {3,3,3}. It is a 5-vertex four-dimensional object bounded by five tetrahedral cells. It is also known as a C 5, hypertetrahedron, pentachoron, [1] pentatope, pentahedroid, [2] tetrahedral pyramid, or 4-simplex (Coxeter's polytope), [3] the simplest possible convex 4-polytope, and is analogous to the tetrahedron in three ...

  5. Why is compound interest better than simple interest? - AOL

    Say you take out a five-year loan for $5,000 that charges a simple interest rate of 5 percent per year. Over the life of the loan, you’d have to pay back the $5,000 principal, plus $1,250 in ...

  6. Complex plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_plane

    In mathematics, the complex plane is the plane formed by the complex numbers, with a Cartesian coordinate system such that the horizontal x-axis, called the real axis, is formed by the real numbers, and the vertical y-axis, called the imaginary axis, is formed by the imaginary numbers.

  7. Composition of relations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composition_of_relations

    The word uncle indicates a compound relation: for a person to be an uncle, he must be the brother of a parent. In algebraic logic it is said that the relation of Uncle ( x U z {\displaystyle xUz} ) is the composition of relations "is a brother of" ( x B y {\displaystyle xBy} ) and "is a parent of" ( y P z {\displaystyle yPz} ).

  8. Function composition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_composition

    If an airplane's altitude at time t is a(t), and the air pressure at altitude x is p(x), then (p ∘ a)(t) is the pressure around the plane at time t. Function defined on finite sets which change the order of their elements such as permutations can be composed on the same set, this being composition of permutations.

  9. English compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_compound

    English compound modifiers are constructed in a very similar way to the compound noun. Blackboard Jungle, leftover ingredients, gunmetal sheen, and green monkey disease are only a few examples. A compound modifier is a sequence of modifiers of a noun that function as a single unit.
