Reseña

This Illustrated Glossary for School Mathematics provides precise definitions accessible to a wide spectrum of readers. This book includes the most frequently used concepts of elementary mathematics, ranging from primary, secondary, high school and university level, corresponding to courses in the engineering areas. In particular, it includes terms from courses in infinitesimal calculus, calculus of functions of several variables, linear algebra, differential equations, vector calculus, finite mathematics, probability, and statistics.
This book contains 2420 defined terms and 1248 figures. The number of illustrations is greater if the examples in each definition are considered as an illustration. In addition to the definition of each term, where it was considered appropriate, related mathematical results, algebraic properties of the defined mathematical object, its geometric representation, examples to clarify the concept or the defined mathematical technique, etc., are included with the intention of conveying the mathematical idea in different forms of representation (algebraic, numerical, geometric, etc.)
The goal of the author of this book is to provide a reference source for school work, and at the same time, to help the student to understand the definition of a mathematical term or to know the most important results related to it.
A glossary of mathematical terms can never be considered finished. Therefore, it is not intended to cover all branches and all the terms in mathematics. However, this version is a very complete one, and it should be considered an indispensable sample copy, both in the school library and in the family library. This book will be very useful for students, teachers, tutors, edutubers, authors, and even researchers in the area of mathematics, and its learning and teaching, and anyone from the general public who wishes to improve their understanding of mathematical ideas.
