Quadratic :: Quadratic (a.) Pertaining to terms of the second degree; as, a quadratic equation, in which the highest power of the unknown quantity is a square..

Lituus :: Lituus (n.) A spiral whose polar equation is r2/ = a; that is, a curve the square of whose radius vector varies inversely as the angle which the radius vector makes with a given line..

Approximation :: Approximation (n.) A continual approach or coming nearer to a result; as, to solve an equation by approximation..

Eliminant :: Eliminant (n.) The result of eliminating n variables between n homogeneous equations of any degree; -- called also resultant.

Exegesis :: Exegesis (n.) The process of finding the roots of an equation.

Lima/on :: Lima/on (n.) A curve of the fourth degree, invented by Pascal. Its polar equation is r = a cos / + b..
