5. in an algebraic expression or equation, either a single number or variable, or the product of several numbers and variables separated from another term by a + or – sign, e.g. in the expression 3 + 4x + 5yzw, the 3, the 4x and the 5yzw are all separate _____
6. a2 + b2 = c2 is the __________ theorem
9. the part of mathematics concerned with the size, shape and relative position of figures, or the study of lines, angles, shapes and their properties
11. a way of writing rational numbers (numbers that are not whole numbers), also used to represent ratios or division, in the form of a numerator over a denominator, e.g. 3⁄5
14. a number which, when multiplied by x yields the multiplicative identity 1, and can therefore be thought of as the inverse of multiplication. Eg x is 1/x __________.
