If you have trouble remembering how to graph different mathematical functions, these simple figures with their dancing arms can help. At the very least, they’ll make you think of math every time you ...

All quadratic functions have the same type of curved graphs with a line of symmetry. The graph of the quadratic function \(y = ax^2 + bx + c \) has a minimum turning point when \(a \textgreater 0 \) ...

Engage in lab-based activities designed to strengthen their problem-solving skills and expand knowledge of the topics in secondary mathematics, focusing especially on topics from precalculus and the ...

A translation is a movement of the graph either horizontally parallel to the \(x\)-axis or vertically parallel to the \(y\)-axis. The graph of \(f(x) = x^2\) is the same as the graph of \(y = x^2\).

American Journal of Mathematics, Vol. 101, No. 4 (Aug., 1979), pp. 743-759 (17 pages) The elementary functions of a complex variable z are those functions built up from the rational functions of z by ...

Amid the chaos of revolutionary France, one man’s mathematical obsession gave way to a calculation that now underpins much of ...
