Algebranoun
A system for computation using letters or other symbols to represent numbers, with rules for manipulating these symbols.
Algebranoun
The surgical treatment of a dislocated or fractured bone. Also (countable): a dislocation or fracture.
Algebranoun
The study of algebraic structures.
Algebranoun
A universal algebra.
Algebranoun
An algebraic structure consisting of a module over a commutative ring (or a vector space over a field) along with an additional binary operation that is bilinear over module (or vector) addition and scalar multiplication.
Algebranoun
A collection of subsets of a given set, such that this collection contains the empty set, and the collection is closed under unions and complements (and thereby also under intersections and differences).
Algebranoun
One of several other types of mathematical structure.
Algebranoun
(figurative) A system or process, that is like algebra by substituting one thing for another, or in using signs, symbols, etc., to represent concepts or ideas.
Algebranoun
That branch of mathematics which treats of the relations and properties of quantity by means of letters and other symbols. It is applicable to those relations that are true of every kind of magnitude.
Algebranoun
A treatise on this science.
Algebranoun
the mathematics of generalized arithmetical operations
Algebra
Algebra (from Arabic: الجبر, romanized: al-jabr, lit. 'reunion of broken parts, bonesetting') is one of the broad areas of mathematics, together with number theory, geometry and analysis. In its most general form, algebra is the study of mathematical symbols and the rules for manipulating these symbols; it is a unifying thread of almost all of mathematics.
Trigonometrynoun
The branch of mathematics that deals with the relationships between the sides and angles of (in particular) right-angled triangles, as represented by the trigonometric functions, and with calculations based on said relationships.
Trigonometrynoun
That branch of mathematics which treats of the relations of the sides and angles of triangles, which the methods of deducing from certain given parts other required parts, and also of the general relations which exist between the trigonometrical functions of arcs or angles.
Trigonometrynoun
A treatise in this science.
Trigonometrynoun
the mathematics of triangles and trigonometric functions
Trigonometry
Trigonometry (from Greek trigōnon, and metron, ) is a branch of mathematics that studies relationships between side lengths and angles of triangles. The field emerged in the Hellenistic world during the 3rd century BC from applications of geometry to astronomical studies.
