| Title | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| Absolute Maximum | The highest point on a graph, especially over a specified domain. It is the greatest value of f(x) over a defined interval of x, provided y=f(x). | ![]() |
| Absolute Minimum | The lowest point on a graph, especially over a specified domain. It is the least value of f(x) over a defined interval of x, provided y=f(x). | ![]() |
| Antiderivative | Given a function with a derivative, the antiderivative of that derivative function returns the original function. | ![]() |
| Area Under a Curve | If we have limits of integration, it is most simply the definite integral of the function defined between those limits of integration. | ![]() |
| Asymptote | A line (or curve) that a function approaches without actually reaching the line as the domain either grows unbounded or approaches a limit. | ![]() |
