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

Resolution :: Resolution (n.) The act or process of solving; solution; as, the resolution of an equation or problem..

Auxiliary :: Auxiliary (sing.) A quantity introduced for the purpose of simplifying or facilitating some operation, as in equations or trigonometrical formulae..

Quadric :: Quadric (n.) A surface whose equation in three variables is of the second degree. Spheres, spheroids, ellipsoids, paraboloids, hyperboloids, also cones and cylinders with circular bases, are quadrics..
