  2. Sides of an equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sides_of_an_equation

    The expression on the right side of the "=" sign is the right side of the equation and the expression on the left of the "=" is the left side of the equation. For example, in + = + x + 5 is the left-hand side (LHS) and y + 8 is the right-hand side (RHS).

  3. Equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation

    The expressions on the two sides of the equals sign are called the "left-hand side" and "right-hand side" of the equation. Very often the right-hand side of an equation is assumed to be zero. This does not reduce the generality, as this can be realized by subtracting the right-hand side from both sides. The most common type of equation is a ...

  4. Equality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equality_(mathematics)

    In this equality, A and B are distinguished by calling them left-hand side (LHS), and right-hand side (RHS). [3] Two objects that are not equal are said to be distinct. [4] Equality is often considered a kind of primitive notion, meaning, it is not formally defined, but rather informally said to be "a relation each thing bears to itself and ...

  5. Chemical equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_equation

    A chemical equation is the symbolic representation of a chemical reaction in the form of symbols and chemical formulas.The reactant entities are given on the left-hand side and the product entities are on the right-hand side with a plus sign between the entities in both the reactants and the products, and an arrow that points towards the products to show the direction of the reaction. [1]

  6. Equation solving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_solving

    If the left-hand side expression of an equation P = 0 can be factorized as P = QR, the solution set of the original solution consists of the union of the solution sets of the two equations Q = 0 and R = 0. For example, the equation ⁡ + ⁡ = can be rewritten, using the identity tan x cot x = 1 as

  7. Quadratic formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_formula

    To complete the square, form a squared binomial on the left-hand side of a quadratic equation, from which the solution can be found by taking the square root of both sides. The standard way to derive the quadratic formula is to apply the method of completing the square to the generic quadratic equation ⁠ a x 2 + b x + c = 0 {\displaystyle ...

  8. Algebra - Wikipedia

    A key principle guiding this process is that whatever operation is applied to one side of an equation also needs to be done to the other side. For example, if one subtracts 5 from the left side of an equation one also needs to subtract 5 from the right side to balance both sides.

  9. Parabola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabola

    An inclined cross-section of the cone, shown in pink, is inclined from the axis by the same angle θ, as the side of the cone. According to the definition of a parabola as a conic section, the boundary of this pink cross-section EPD is a parabola. A cross-section perpendicular to the axis of the cone passes through the vertex P of the parabola.
