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..

Parabolism :: Parabolism (n.) The division of the terms of an equation by a known quantity that is involved in the first term.

Quartic :: Quartic (n.) A curve or surface whose equation is of the fourth degree in the variables.

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

Parabola :: Parabola (n.) One of a group of curves defined by the equation y = axn where n is a positive whole number or a positive fraction. For the cubical parabola n = 3; for the semicubical parabola n = /. See under Cubical, and Semicubical. The parabolas have infinite branches, but no rectilineal asymptotes..

Numerical :: Numerical (n.) Belonging to number; denoting number; consisting in numbers; expressed by numbers, and not letters; as, numerical characters; a numerical equation; a numerical statement..

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

Affected :: Affected (p. p. & a.) Made up of terms involving different powers of the unknown quantity; adfected; as, an affected equation..

Transposition :: Transposition (n.) The bringing of any term of an equation from one side over to the other without destroying the equation.

Acnode :: Acnode (n.) An isolated point not upon a curve, but whose coordinates satisfy the equation of the curve so that it is considered as belonging to the curve..

Solution :: Solution (n.) The act of solving, or the state of being solved; the disentanglement of any intricate problem or difficult question; explanation; clearing up; -- used especially in mathematics, either of the process of solving an equation or problem, or the result of the process..

Eliminate :: Eliminate (v. t.) To cause to disappear from an equation; as, to eliminate an unknown quantity..

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