Encyclopedia > List of mathematical identities

This page lists identities in the sense of mathematics, that is, identically true relations holding in algebra or between special functions. In mathematics, an identity is an equality that remains true regardless of the values of any variables that appear within it. ... Wikibooks Wikiversity has more about this subject: School of Mathematics Wikiquote has a collection of quotations by or about: Mathematics Look up Mathematics on Wiktionary, the free dictionary Wikimedia Commons has more media related to: Mathematics Bogomolny, Alexander: Interactive Mathematics Miscellany and Puzzles. ... Algebra is a branch of mathematics, which studies structure and quantity. ... In mathematics, several functions are important enough to deserve their own name. ...

In mathematics, the difference of two squares refers to the identity a2 − b2 = (a + b)(a − b) from elementary algebra. ... In number theory, Bézouts identity, named after Étienne Bézout, is a linear diophantine equation. ... In mathematics, Eulers identity is the following equation: where: is the base of the natural logarithm, is the imaginary unit, the complex number whose square is negative one, and is Archimedes constant, the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. ... In combinatorial mathematics, Vandermondes identity, named after Alexandre-Théophile Vandermonde, states that This may be proved by simple algebra relying on the fact that (see factorial) but it also admits a more combinatorics-flavored bijective proof, as follows. ... In mathematics, Brahmaguptas identity says that the product of two numbers, each of which is a sum of two squares, is itself a sum of two squares. ... In mathematics, Eulers four-square identity says that the product of two numbers, each of which being a sum of four squares, is itself a sum of four squares. ...

Identities for classes of functions

Interact Help: Exploring Emotions (1137 words)
Lists on the form let you select the actor's identity and emotion/mood, the object person's identity and emotion/mood, and the behavior.
When solving for the identity of an object person, the identities listed in the solution have the same institutional connections as the identity that is specified for the actor.
The emotion list is scrolled automatically so that the emotion term with an EPA profile closest to the computed profile appears as the topmost visible entry in the box showing emotions.
Identities (238 words)
Identities do not add any information about the quantities which they contain, because they are true for any values those quantities may take.
The identity written on top is actually one of the basic properties of numbers ("the distributive law").
Another useful identity is obtained by multiplying (a–b) times (a+b).
