  1. Difference between "≈", "≃", and "≅" - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    In mathematical notation, what are the usage differences between the various approximately-equal signs "≈", "≃", and "≅"? The Unicode standard lists all of them inside the Mathematical Operators B...

  2. What exactly is "approximation"? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Jan 31, 2013 · One can, for example, approximate continuous functions with polynomial functions, in which case the idea is to keep the area between the original function and the approximating function …

  3. Approximate solution to an equation with a high-degree polynomial

    Jan 19, 2022 · Approximate solution to an equation with a high-degree polynomial Ask Question Asked 3 years, 10 months ago Modified 3 years, 10 months ago

  4. What is the approximate identity? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Feb 25, 2017 · An approximate identity (in the sense that you've described) is a sequence of operators, usually derived from some "nice" class, that converge to the identity operator in the sense that you …

  5. Approximate functional equation for the Riemann zeta function

    Dec 12, 2018 · Approximate functional equation for the Riemann zeta function Ask Question Asked 6 years, 11 months ago Modified 6 years, 11 months ago

  6. exponential function - Feynman's Trick for Approximating $e^x ...

    Jul 7, 2017 · And he could approximate small values by performing some mental math to get an accurate approximation to three decimal places. For example, approximating $e^ {3.3}$, we …

  7. When should we write $\approx$ (approximately symbol)?

    Perhaps the correct option (and the one I am currently using) is $ (3)$ because of the transitivity of the symbols of equality $=$ and approximately $\approx$.

  8. Approximate $\coth (x)$ around $x = 0$ - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Apr 13, 2017 · I'm trying to approximate $\coth (x)$ around $x = 0$, up to say, third order in $x$. Now obviously a simple taylor expansion doesn't work, as it diverges around $x = 0$.

  9. real analysis - How to approximate $e^ {-x}$ when $x$ is large ...

    Jan 1, 2023 · When the value of $x$ is small, such as when $x$ is less than $1$, we can use the Taylor series to approximate its behavior. The first few terms of the series often ...

  10. notation - Different use of approximate equality symbols

    Apr 12, 2016 · I have been wondering for a long time whether there is a unequivocal way to define and use the symbols commonly adopted for an approximate equality between two quantities. I am a …
