prealgebra, algebra algebra, branch of mathematics concerned with operations on sets of numbers or other elements that are often represented by symbols. Algebra is a generalization of arithmetic and gains much of its power from dealing symbolically with elements and operations (such as , trigonometry trigonometry [Gr.,=measurement of triangles], a specialized area of geometry concerned with the properties of and relations among the parts of a triangle. Spherical trigonometry is concerned with the study of triangles on the surface of a sphere rather than in the , calculus calculus, branch of mathematics that studies continuously changing quantities. The calculus is characterized by the use of infinite processes, involving passage to a limit—the notion of tending toward, or approaching, an ultimate value. , physics and chemistry. It
includes a full-featured graphing calculator Graphing Calculator may refer to: - Graphing calculators, calculators that are able to display and/or analyze mathematical function graphs.
- NuCalc, a computer software program able to perform many graphing calculator functions.
and step-by-step
instructions on how to solve difficult problems. Students can also take
advantage of the formulas and equations library, which contains more
than 100 common math equations and formulas; the triangle solver, which
teaches the relationship between different components used to calculate
sides, angles and values and to solve formulas; and the unit conversion
tool, which converts units of measure, including length, area, volume,
weight, temperature, pressure, energy, power, velocity and time.
