Definitions:
Sets: A well-Defined collection of objects and things.
Members and elements of a set: the things or objects of a set are called the members or elements of a set. Tabular form of a sets: when the objects of a set are listed between curly brackets “{ }”. Descriptive form of a set: when a word or sentence is used to describe or denote a set. Finite set: A set with limited members/elements is called finite sets. Infinite set: A set with unlimited members or sets are called infinite sets. Singleton set: A set with only one member is called singleton set. Proper subset: If set A and B are two sets and all the elements of set A are in set B but all of the elements of set B are not in set A then B is a proper subset of A Improper subset: If set A and B are two sets and all the elements of set A are in set B and all of the elements of set B are in set A then B is a improper subset of A and vice versa. Natural numbers: Counting numbers are called natural numbers. Whole numbers: Natural numbers with zero (0) are called whole numbers. Positive integers: All natural numbers are positive integers Negative integers: All natural numbers with a minus sign “-” are negative integers. Neutral integers: 0 is a neutral integer. Prime numbers: Numbers which has only two factors. Composite numbers: Numbers with more than two factors. Factor: A number that divides a number completely. Multiple: A number which is got when multiplying a number with (1,2,3,4,5 …) Even numbers: Numbers that can be divided by two. Odd numbers: Numbers that cannot be divided by two. Additive identity: 0 is an Additive identity as if it is added with any number the number remains the same e.g. 0 + 7 = 7 Multiplicative identity: 1 is a Multiplicative identity because if multiplied with any number the result is the same e.g. 12 x 1 =12 Associative law of addition/multiplication: If X Y Z are three numbers so (Z + X) + Y = (Y + X) + Z / (Z x Y) X = (Z x X) Y. Commutative law of addition/multiplication: If Y Z are two numbers so Z + Y = Y + Z / Z x Y = Y x Z. Distributive law of multiplication over addition: If X Y Z are three numbers then (Z + Y) X = (Z x X) + (Y x X). Distributive law of multiplication over subtraction: If X Y Z are three numbers then (Z - Y) X = (Z x X) - (Y x X). H.C.F: highest common factor of given numbers. L.C.M: lowest common multiple of given numbers. BODMAS: B: brackets O: order D: division M: multiplication A: addition S: subtraction. Ratio: comparison between two values of the unit Proportion: proportion shows the equality of two ratios of the same unit Percent: the fraction in which 100 is the denominator is percent. True sentence: An algebraic sentence which proves to be true. False sentence: An algebraic sentence which proves to be false Open sentence An algebraic sentence which proves not to be true or false. Variable: the letter used to donate a value or number is called variable Coefficient of variable: the number appearing as a multiple of the variable is called its coefficient. Constant term: A term which as a fixed value and does not involve any variable is called constant term. Exponent: the power of a variable is called its exponent. Square: A quadrilateral with equal sides each angle of 90*. Rectangle: A quadrilateral with equal parallel sides each angle of 90*. Triangle: A bounded figure made of 3 line segments. The points the segments meet are called its vertex.
All formulas:
Area of square: (Side) X (Side)
Parameter of square: 4(Side) Area of rectangle: (Length) X (Weigh) Parameter of rectangle: 2(L + W) Area of triangle: ½ X (L X W) Parameter of triangle: side + side + side conference of circle: 2 (22/7) radios area of circle: (22/7)R-square symbols: (- , - = +) (+ , + = +) (+ , - = -)
