Asymetry Math

Technical

The absence of symetry - which is otherwise defined as the exact agreement of parts on opposite sides of a line.   In asymetry, there is difference between two sides of a line - commonly to a higher degree (when asymetry is used to describe a lopsidedness or imbalance). 

Data Math

Technical

Information expressed in numbers OR factual information that is organized for analysis. 

Hypotenuse Math

Technical

The longest side of a right triangle. 

Order of Operations Math

Technical

In math, the rule set that identifies the order in which computations - such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division - must be performed. 

Parallel lines (...in math) Math

Technical

 Lines that never meet, and always remain the same distance apart. 

Polygon Math

Technical

A close planed figure that has three or more sides.

Prime number Math

Technical

A whole number that is greater than 1 - and has only itself and 1 as factors. 

Probability Math

Technical

The likelihood or chance of an event occuring.  Can be expressed generally (i.e. high or low) - or as a percentage anywhere from 0 to 100%. 

Range (...of numbers) Math

Technical

The difference between the largest and least value in a data set. 

Reciprocal Math

Technical

For any non-zero number x, the reciprocal is 1/x.  This reciprocal 1/x is also called the multiplicative inverse of that number - but calling it the reciprocal is easier & more common.

Similar (...in math terms) Math

Technical

Figures that have the same shape, but are not the same in size. 

Slope (...in math terms) Math

Technical

The measure of a line's steepness as expressed in the form --  >    slope=rise/run. 

Solution (...in math terms) Math

Technical

The value of a variable that will make an open statement true. 

Supplementary angles Math

Technical

Two angles whose sum of their measures equals 180 degrees. 

Symetry Math

Technical

The exact agreement of parts on opposite sides of line.  In contrast to asymetry where there is difference between two sides of a line - commonly to a higher degree (when asymetry is used to describe a lopsidedness or imbalance).
