Pythagorean Theorem

... a2 + b2 = c2 • Step 2: Substitute known values 82 + 152 = c2 • Step 3: Solve for the missing variable, in this case c. We are not done yet… We have found c2, but not just plain c. We were told to solve for x, not c. So we should replace the c with an x. ...

... Equations can have more than one variable. A formula is an equation that’s used over and over with different numbers in for the variables. For example, the formula for the area of a rectangle, A = lw, has three variables, A, l, and w. The two expressions A and lw are not equivalent, and if we put nu ...

Ambiguity



Ambiguity is a type of uncertainty of meaning in which several interpretations are plausible. It is thus an attribute of any idea or statement whose intended meaning cannot be definitively resolved according to a rule or process with a finite number of steps. (The ambi- part of the name reflects an idea of ""two"" as in two meanings.)The concept of ambiguity is generally contrasted with vagueness. In ambiguity, specific and distinct interpretations are permitted (although some may not be immediately apparent), whereas with information that is vague, it is difficult to form any interpretation at the desired level of specificity.Context may play a role in resolving ambiguity. For example, the same piece of information may be ambiguous in one context and unambiguous in another.
