Inadequation :: Inadequation (n.) Want of exact correspondence.

Degree :: Degree (n.) State as indicated by sum of exponents; more particularly, the degree of a term is indicated by the sum of the exponents of its literal factors; thus, a2b3c is a term of the sixth degree. The degree of a power, or radical, is denoted by its index, that of an equation by the greatest sum of the exponents of the unknown quantities in any term; thus, ax4 + bx2 = c, and mx2y2 + nyx = p, are both equations of the fourth degree..

Adequation :: Adequation (n.) The act of equalizing; act or result of making adequate; an equivalent.

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

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..

Order :: Order (n.) Rank; degree; thus, the order of a curve or surface is the same as the degree of its equation..

Transformation :: Transformation (n.) The change, as of an equation or quantity, into another form without altering the value..

Equation :: Equation (n.) A making equal; equal division; equality; equilibrium.

Folium :: Folium (n.) A curve of the third order, consisting of two infinite branches, which have a common asymptote. The curve has a double point, and a leaf-shaped loop; whence the name. Its equation is x3 + y3 = axy..

Member :: Member (n.) Either of the two parts of an algebraic equation, connected by the sign of equality..

Quadratics :: Quadratics (n.) That branch of algebra which treats of quadratic equations.

Inequation :: Inequation (n.) An inequality.

Analysis :: Analysis (n.) The resolving of problems by reducing the conditions that are in them to equations.

Depression :: Depression (n.) The operation of reducing to a lower degree; -- said of equations.

Sinusoid :: Sinusoid (n.) The curve whose ordinates are proportional to the sines of the abscissas, the equation of the curve being y = a sin x. It is also called the curve of sines..

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