100
The ratio of vertical change to horizontal change when moving from one point on the line to another point on the line
What is slope?
100
A triangle that contains a 90 degree angle.
What is a right triangle?
100
Move an imaginary vertical line across a graph from left to right. If any vertical line touches the graphed relation at more than one point, the graph does not represent a function.
What is the vertical line test?
100
The graph of this funtion produces a straight line.
What is a linear function?
100
To factor a polynomial, we look at the factors of this part of the equation.
What is the constant?
200
Any set of ordered pairs.
What is a relation?
200
A theorum that states the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs of a triangle is equal to the square of the hypoteneuse.
What is the Pythagorean Theorum?
200
A function in the form of f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c
What is a quadratic function?
200
The shape of the graph that is produced by a quadratic function.
What is a Parabola?
200
The opposite of factoring.
What is FOILing?
300
a relation in which every first coordinate has one and only one second coordinate associated with it.
What is a function?
300
180 degrees
What is the sum of the interior angles of a triangle?
300
Where the graph of a polynomial crosses the x-axis
What is a root or zero of a polynomial?
300
This type of function will produce a graph that has no gaps, or holes. It will have smooth curves (no sharp points). It will also pass the vertical line test.
What is a polynomial?
300
When finding the zeros of a 3rd degree polynomial, we have to reduce it to a 2nd degree polynomial before we can factor it. This can be done by pulling out an x, or by this process which involves dividing the polynomial by a factor in the form of (x-a).
What is synthetic division?
400
A function of the form ax+by=c.
What is a linear function?
400
Sin is Opposite over Hypoteneuse. Cos is Adjacent over Hypoteneuse. Tan is Opposite over Adjacent.
What is SOHCAHTOA?
400
All real numbers
What is the domain of a polynomial?
400
The name of the maximum or minimum (humps) on the graph of a polynomial.
What is extrema?
400
The sign in front of this part of the equation determines whether the signs of the factors will be the same or different.
What is the constant?
500
Every polynomial of degree n with complex coefficients; where n>0, can be factored into n linear factors.
What is the complete linear factorization theorum?
500
∏/180
What is the number of radians in one degree?
500
The theorum that states there cannot be more roots than the degree of the polynomial.
What is the complete linear factorization theorum?
500
A polynomial of this degree will produce a graph with 4 extrema.
What is a 5th degree polynomial?
500
The zero of a polynomial that cannot be factored, even after synthetic division.
What is a complex zero?
