Items

• centripetal acceleration

  Accelaration directed towards the centre of a circular path that causes an object to move in a circle.
• centripetal force

  A centripetal force is a force that makes a body follow a curved path. Its direction is always orthogonal to the motion of the body and towards the fixed point of the instantaneous centre of curvature of the path
• centroid

  The centroid of a triangle is the point where its medians intersect. It is also the centre of gravity of the triangle and one of the triangle's points of concurrency. It works by constructing two medians, which intersect at the centroid
• chain rule

  Is a formula for computing the derivative of the composition of two or more functions.
• change of variable

  Is a basic technique used to simplify problems in which the original variable is replaced with functions of other variables.
• choice

  As a noun, a choice is an act of choosing between two or more possibilities.
• chord

  A chord of a circle is a straight line segment whose endpoints lie on the circle. The diameter, which passes through the center of the circle, is a special case of a chord.
• circle

  A circle is the locus of all points equidistant from a central point.
• circumference

  Circumference of a circle is the distance around it.
• closed interval

  A closed interval is an interval which includes all its limit points, and is denoted with square brackets
• closed set

  A closed set is a set whose complement is an open set. In a topological space, a closed set can be defined as a set which contains all its limit points. In a complete metric space, a closed set is a set which is closed under the limit operation.
• coefficient

  A number used to multiply a variable.
• codomain

  In mathematics, a codomain or set of destination of a function is a set into which all of the output of the function is constrained to fall. It is the set Y in the notation f: X → Y. (Wikipedia)
• cofunction

  A trigonometric function whose value for the complement of an angle is equal to the value of a given trigonometric function of the angle itself the sine is the cofunction of the cosine.
• co-interior angles

  A transversal cross two (usually parallel) lines. Each pair of interior angles are inside the parallel lines, and on the same side of the transversal.
• combination

  A combination is a selection of items from a collection, such that the order of selection does not matter.
• common denominator

  A common multiple of the denominators of several fractions
• common factor

  When we find the factors of two or more numbers, and then find some factors are the same ("common"), then they are the "common factors"
• common logarithms

  The common logarithm is the logarithm with base 10. It is also known as the decadic logarithm and as the decimal logarithm, named after its base, or Briggsian logarithm, after Henry Briggs, an English mathematician who pioneered its use, as well as "standard logarithm.
• common multiple

  A common multiple is a number that is a multiple of two or more numbers.
• comparison test

  The comparison test provides a way of deducing the convergence or divergence of an infinite series or an improper integral.
• complement of a set

  The complement of a set A refers to elements not in A.
• complementary angles

  Two angles whose sum is 90 degrees.
• completing the square

  A method, usually of solving quadratic equations, by which a quadratic expression, as x2 − 4x + 3, is written as the sum or difference of a perfect square and a constant, x2 − 4x + 4 + 3 − 4 = (x − 2)2 − 1, by addition and subtraction of appropriate constant terms.
• complex conjugate

  The complex conjugate of a complex number is the number with an equal real part and an imaginary part equal in magnitude but opposite in sign. For example, the complex conjugate of 3 + 4i is 3 − 4i.
