Dictionary » M » Mathematics MathematicsMathematics That science, or class of sciences, which treats of the exact relations existing between quantities or magnitudes, and of the methods by which, in accordance with these relations, quantities sought are deducible from other quantities known or supposed; the science of spatial and quantitative relations. mathematics embraces three departments, namely: 1. Arithmetic. 2. Geometry, including trigonometry and conic sections. 3. Analysis, in which letters are used, including algebra, analytical geometry, and calculus. Each of these divisions is divided into pure or abstract, which considers magnitude or quantity abstractly, without relation to matter; and mixed or applied, which treats of magnitude as subsisting in material bodies, and is consequently interwoven with physical considerations. Origin: f. Mathematiques, pl, L. Mathematica, sing, gr. (sc) science. See mathematic, and -ics. ![]()

AFJ---Again, there are scientific laws in the applied sciences and mathematics which are laws which can be tested and proven to the greatest degree that science allows. Historical science cannot do this whether one ...

Considering how much of all science is based on mathematics, is a career in biology, or in related fields, a dim prospect for someone with a problematic relationship with math? Will I be able to get ...

Biology careers and math... even worse in math. I don't think I can do basic algebra. which is really depressing because I'm 20 and feel I should be able to do more advanced mathematics at my age. However I do have an A+ in my psychology class. So my question is.....am I doomed? Do I not know enough about math in order to ...
