Mathematics, maths, and math are uncountable nouns and are used with a singular verb. Don't say, for example, 'Maths are my best subject'. When you are referring to a science rather than a school subject, use mathematics. According to the laws of mathematics, this is not possible.Thesaurus| Noun | 1. |  math - a science (or group of related sciences) dealing with the logic of quantity and shape and arrangementmathematics, mathsrounding, rounding error - (mathematics) a miscalculation that results from rounding off numbers to a convenient number of decimals; "the error in the calculation was attributable to rounding"; "taxes are rounded off to the nearest dollar but the rounding error is surprisingly small"truncation error - (mathematics) a miscalculation that results from cutting off a numerical calculation before it is finishedmathematical operation, mathematical process, operation - (mathematics) calculation by mathematical methods; "the problems at the end of the chapter demonstrated the mathematical processes involved in the derivation"; "they were learning the basic operations of arithmetic"rationalisation, rationalization - (mathematics) the simplification of an expression or equation by eliminating radicals without changing the value of the expression or the roots of the equationinvariance - the nature of a quantity or property or function that remains unchanged when a given transformation is applied to it; "the invariance of the configuration under translation"accuracy - (mathematics) the number of significant figures given in a number; "the atomic clock enabled scientists to measure time with much greater accuracy"symmetricalness, symmetry, correspondence, balance - (mathematics) an attribute of a shape or relation; exact reflection of form on opposite sides of a dividing line or planeasymmetry, dissymmetry, imbalance - (mathematics) a lack of symmetryfactoring, factorisation, factorization - (mathematics) the resolution of an entity into factors such that when multiplied together they give the original entityextrapolation - (mathematics) calculation of the value of a function outside the range of known valuesinterpolation - (mathematics) calculation of the value of a function between the values already knownformula, rule - (mathematics) a standard procedure for solving a class of mathematical problems; "he determined the upper bound with Descartes' rule of signs"; "he gave us a general formula for attacking polynomials"recursion - (mathematics) an expression such that each term is generated by repeating a particular mathematical operationinvariant - a feature (quantity or property or function) that remains unchanged when a particular transformation is applied to itmultinomial, polynomial - a mathematical function that is the sum of a number of termsseries - (mathematics) the sum of a finite or infinite sequence of expressionsinfinitesimal - (mathematics) a variable that has zero as its limitfractal - (mathematics) a geometric pattern that is repeated at every scale and so cannot be represented by classical geometryscience, scientific discipline - a particular branch of scientific knowledge; "the science of genetics"pure mathematics - the branches of mathematics that study and develop the principles of mathematics for their own sake rather than for their immediate usefulnessarithmetic - the branch of pure mathematics dealing with the theory of numerical calculationsgeometry - the pure mathematics of points and lines and curves and surfacesaffine geometry - the geometry of affine transformationselementary geometry, Euclidean geometry, parabolic geometry - (mathematics) geometry based on Euclid's axiomsEuclidean axiom, Euclid's axiom, Euclid's postulate - (mathematics) any of five axioms that are generally recognized as the basis for Euclidean geometryfractal geometry - (mathematics) the geometry of fractals; "Benoit Mandelbrot pioneered fractal geometry"non-Euclidean geometry - (mathematics) geometry based on axioms different from Euclid's; "non-Euclidean geometries discard or replace one or more of the Euclidean axioms"hyperbolic geometry - (mathematics) a non-Euclidean geometry in which the parallel axiom is replaced by the assumption that through any point in a plane there are two or more lines that do not intersect a given line in the plane; "Karl Gauss pioneered hyperbolic geometry"elliptic geometry, Riemannian geometry - (mathematics) a non-Euclidean geometry that regards space as like a sphere and a line as like a great circle; "Bernhard Riemann pioneered elliptic geometry"numerical analysis - (mathematics) the branch of mathematics that studies algorithms for approximating solutions to problems in the infinitesimal calculusspherical geometry - (mathematics) the geometry of figures on the surface of a spherespherical trigonometry - (mathematics) the trigonometry of spherical trianglesanalytic geometry, analytical geometry, coordinate geometry - the use of algebra to study geometric properties; operates on symbols defined in a coordinate systemplane geometry - the geometry of 2-dimensional figuressolid geometry - the geometry of 3-dimensional space |
