   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_equation

   A word equation is a formal equality:= = between a pair of words and , each over an alphabet comprising both constants (c.f. ) and unknowns (c.f. ). [1] An assignment of constant words to the unknowns of is said to solve if it maps both sides of to identical words.

4. Mathematical problem - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_problem

   Known as word problems, they are used in mathematics education to teach students to connect real-world situations to the abstract language of mathematics. In general, to use mathematics for solving a real-world problem, the first step is to construct a mathematical model of the problem. This involves abstraction from the details of the problem ...

5. Equality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

   Prior to the symbol and well into the 1700s, it was common to simply use a varient of the word "equals", such as æ (or œ), from the Latin aequālis. [9] Diophantus in his Arithmetica (c. 250 AD), for example, used ἴσ, short for ἴσος ("equals"), considered one of the first uses of an "equals sign". [10]

   Word problem from the Līlāvatī (12th century), with its English translation and solution. In science education, a word problem is a mathematical exercise (such as in a textbook, worksheet, or exam) where significant background information on the problem is presented in ordinary language rather than in mathematical notation.

7. Word problem (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   The word problem for an algebra is then to determine, given two expressions (words) involving the generators and operations, whether they represent the same element of the algebra modulo the identities. The word problems for groups and semigroups can be phrased as word problems for algebras. [1]

8. Identity (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

   Visual proof of the Pythagorean identity: for any angle , the point (,) = (⁡, ⁡) lies on the unit circle, which satisfies the equation + =.Thus, ⁡ + ⁡ =. In mathematics, an identity is an equality relating one mathematical expression A to another mathematical expression B, such that A and B (which might contain some variables) produce the same value for all values of the variables ...
