  2. Trinomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinomial

    A trinomial equation is a polynomial equation involving three terms. An example is the equation x = q + x m {\displaystyle x=q+x^{m}} studied by Johann Heinrich Lambert in the 18th century. [ 2 ]

  3. Expression (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In the equation 7x − 5 = 2, the sides of the equation are expressions. In mathematics, an expression is a written arrangement of symbols following the context-dependent, syntactic conventions of mathematical notation. Symbols can denote numbers, variables, operations, and functions. [1]

  4. List of trigonometric identities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_trigonometric...

    These identities are useful whenever expressions involving trigonometric functions need to be simplified. An important application is the integration of non-trigonometric functions: a common technique involves first using the substitution rule with a trigonometric function, and then simplifying the resulting integral with a trigonometric identity.

    This is a list of equations, by Wikipedia page under appropriate bands of their field. Eponymous equations The following equations are named after researchers who ...

  6. Transcendental function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcendental_function

    For example, (+ /) converges to the exponential function , and the infinite sum = ()! turns out to equal the hyperbolic cosine function ⁡. In fact, it is impossible to define any transcendental function in terms of algebraic functions without using some such "limiting procedure" (integrals, sequential limits, and infinite sums are just a few).

  7. 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 ...

  8. Triangular distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_distribution

    This distribution for a = 0, b = 1 and c = 0.5—the mode (i.e., the peak) is exactly in the middle of the interval—corresponds to the distribution of the mean of two standard uniform variables, that is, the distribution of X = (X 1 + X 2) / 2, where X 1, X 2 are two independent random variables with standard uniform distribution in [0, 1]. [1]

  9. Equation solving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_solving

    An example of using Newton–Raphson method to solve numerically the equation f(x) = 0. In mathematics, to solve an equation is to find its solutions, which are the values (numbers, functions, sets, etc.) that fulfill the condition stated by the equation, consisting generally of two expressions related by an equals sign.
