Binomial Expression | An algebraic expression with two unlike terms. |
Capacity | The greatest volume that a container can hold. |
Circumference | The distance around a circle. |

Irrational number | A number whose decimal form is non-terminating and non-repeating. Irrational numbers cannot be written in the form a/b, where a and b are integers (b cannot be zero). So all numbers that are not rational, are irrational. |
Monomial Expression | An algebraic expression with one term. |
Perimeter | The sum of the lengths of the sides of a polygon. |
Polynomial function | A polynomial function is defined as a function: f(x)=.......... , where the coefficients are real numbers. |
Pythagorean theorem | It is a theorem that states a relationship that exists in any right triangle. If the lengths of the legs in the right triangle are a and b, and the length of the hypotenuse is c, we can write the theorem as the following equation: a^2 + b^2 = c^2 |
Radical | The symbol, b square root of a, which is read "the bth root of a," is called a radical. |
