What is a Difference in Math

Introduction to what is a difference in math:

In math, the subtraction of two terms are called as difference and give the difference value. What is a difference in math is use the different method in different branch. For example, if we want to know the difference between the 20 and 10 means subtract the numbers and get the difference as 10.Here we see about different types of difference method with example.

Please express your views of this topic Mathematical Mean by commenting on blog.

Explanation for what is a difference in math


What types of methods are used in difference in math:

Normal arithmetic subtraction
Finite difference
Percent difference
Set theory difference
Normal arithmetic subtraction:

This normal subtraction is performed based on sign of numbers.Some conditions are used in subtraction.

If we subtract the two negative numbers means the difference is carry the negative sign and add the numbers. For example, subtract the -10 and -5 and get the difference as -5.
If we subtract the two positive numbers means determine the difference from large number. For example, find the difference between 55 and 30 and get the difference as 25.
In math subtraction, the ‘-‘ is used for representation.
Finite difference:

The differential equation subtraction is performed by finite difference. The math expression for finite difference is f(x + b) – f(x + a). There are forward, backward and central difference.

Other math difference:

Percent difference – The subtraction of two percentage is used in quality assurance.

Set difference – The representation of set difference is B\A that is elements of B is not in A. The formula for set difference is B \ A = { x = B | x = A }.

Scalene Triangle Math

Introduction :

A two dimensional geometric shape with three sides and angles is called as a triangle. If no sides and angles are equal in a triangle, then it is said to be as scalene triangle. i.e. a scalene triangle is formed by three different sides and angles. Here we are going to learn the math properties of scalene triangles.

Elements of a scalene triangle

Three angles:

`angle` ABC or `angle` B
`angle` ACB or `angle` C
`angle` CAB or `angle` A  and
Three sides:

AB
BC
CA
Types of scalene triangles in math

Acute scalene triangle
Obtuse scalene triangle
Right scalene triangle

Properties of scalene triangle in math

Definition

A scalene triangle is a triangle containing three unequal sides that all are of different lengths.Most triangles drawn at random would be scalene triangles.

Properties of Scalene triangles

A scalene triangle has no congruent sides.
no angles in a scalene triangle are equal.
Perimeter of a scalene triangle is given as
P = x + y + z where x,y,z are the sides of the triangle

a scalene triangle has no line of symmetry ( a line that divides the entire figure into two exact halves).
Calculation of area of a scalene triangle
Area of scalene triangle( that is a triangle with all different sides) can be calculated with the help of the following formula,

Area = `sqrt(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c))`
where s = `(a+b+c)/(2)`  is the semi-perimeter, or half of triangle's perimeter.

Please express your views of this topic Perimeter of a Rectangle Formula by commenting on blog.

Example problems for scalene triangles in math

Example 1

Find the area of a scalene triangle with side lengths 4ft, 6ft, and 8ft respectively

Solution

Area = `sqrt(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c))`

S = `(a+b+c)/2`

Here, a = 4ft

b = 5ft

c = 8 ft

So, s = `(4+5+8)/2`

= `17/2`

= 8.5

Area = `sqrt(8.5(8.5-4)(8.5-5)(8.5-8))`

= `sqrt(8.5xx 4.5 xx 3.5 xx 0.5)`

= `sqrt(66.937)`

= 8.181

So the area of the given scalene triangle = 8.181 square ft

Example 2

Find the perimeter of a scalene triangle with side lengths 4ft, 5ft and 8ft.

Solution

Perimeter of a scalene triangle = a + b + c

Here, a = 4, b = 5, and c = 8

Perimeter = 4 + 5 + 8

= 17 ft

So the perimeter of the given scalene triangle is 17 ft.
