What is the Pythagorean Theorem?

Back

The Pythagorean Theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (c) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides (a and b). Formula: c² = a² + b².

Define a linear equation.

Back

A linear equation is an equation that makes a straight line when graphed. It can be written in the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

What is the slope of a line?

Back

The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness, usually represented by the letter m. It is calculated as the change in y divided by the change in x (rise/run).

Explain the concept of a function.

Back

A function is a relation between a set of inputs and a set of possible outputs where each input is related to exactly one output. It can be represented as f(x).

What is the difference between a rational and an irrational number?

Back

A rational number can be expressed as a fraction of two integers (e.g., 1/2, 3, -4), while an irrational number cannot be expressed as a simple fraction (e.g., √2, π).

What is the quadratic formula?

Back

The quadratic formula is used to find the solutions of a quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0. It is given by x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac)) / (2a).

Define the term 'mean' in statistics.

Back

The mean is the average of a set of numbers, calculated by adding all the numbers together and dividing by the count of numbers.

Front

Explain what a system of equations is.

Back

A system of equations is a set of two or more equations with the same variables. The solution is the point(s) where the equations intersect.

What is the area of a circle?

Back

The area of a circle is calculated using the formula A = πr², where r is the radius of the circle.
