    Extractions: Glossary of Common Math Terms From The Mathematical Intelligencer (Vol 16, No. 1, 1994), after edition: by Steven G Krantz Phase Meaning This is trivial. I forget the proof. This is obvious. You forget the proof. This is a calculation. Let's all forget the proof. Clearly... Obscurely... That problem is intractable. I can't do the problem so neither can you. I thought about that question twenty years ago, but I forget the answer. I'm more famous than you are. That's the most insightful question I ever heard. Let me think about it. You're more famous than I am. What are some applications of your theorem? What IS your theorem? Didn't Jones do some similar stuff a few years ago? I know where you copied. How do you reconcile your theorem with this example? You're dead. Your theorem contradicts my theorem. I'm dead. I've heard so much about you. Stalling a minute may give me time to recall who you are. Where do you teach?

47. Origins Of Some Arithmetic Terms
    Origins of some math terms. Abscissa is the formal term for the xcoordinateof a point on a coordinate graph. The abscissa of the point (3,5) is three.

    Extractions: Origins of some Math terms Abscissa is the formal term for the x-coordinate of a point on a coordinate graph. The abscissa of the point (3,5) is three. The word is a conjunction of ab (remove) + scindere (tear). Literally then, to tear or cut apart, as a line perpendicular to the x-axis would do to the coordinate plane. The main root is closely related to the Latin root from which we get the word scissors. Leibniz apparently coined the mathematical use of the term around 1692. Absolute Value The word absolute is from a variant of absolve and has a meaning related to free from restriction or condition. It seems that the mathematical phrase was first used by Karl Weierstrass in reference to complex numbers. In "The Words of Mathematics", Steven Schwartzman suggests that the use of the word for real values only became common in the middle of the 20th century. Acute is from the Latin word acus for needle, with derivatives generalizing to anything pointed or sharp. The root persists in the words acid (sharp taste), acupuncture (to treat with needles) and acumen (mentally sharp). An acute angle then, is one which is sharp or pointed. In mathematics we define an acute angle as one which has a measure of less than 90

Usually we use letters such as n t , or x for variables. For example, we might say that s stands for the side-length of a square. We now treat s s . The area of the square is given by s s . When working with variables, it can be helpful to use a letter that will remind you of what the variable stands for: let n be the n umber of people in a movie theater; let t be the t ime it takes to travel somewhere; let d be the d istance from my house to the park. An expression is a mathematical statement that may use numbers, variables, or both. Example: The following are examples of expressions: x y z z Example: Roland weighs 70 kilograms, and Mark weighs k kilograms. Write an expression for their combined weight. The combined weight in kilograms of these two people is the sum of their weights, which is 70 + k Example: A car travels down the freeway at 55 kilometers per hour. Write an expression for the distance the car will have traveled after
