Negation; denotes the logical complement of a statement.
Universal quantification; denotes 'for all' or 'for any' within a given context.
Denotes the angle formed by points A, B, and C, with the vertex at point B.
Superset; denotes a set that contains all elements of another set.
Subset; denotes that all elements of one set are contained within another set.
Contains as an element; denotes that a set has a particular element.
Summation; denotes the sum of a sequence of terms.
Product notation; indicates the multiplication of a sequence of terms.
Empty set; denotes a set with no elements.
Logical conjunction; denotes 'and', used to combine two statements that must both be true.
Derivative; denotes the rate at which a function is changing at any given point.
Similar; used to denote geometrical similarity, meaning the figures have the same shape but not necessarily the same size.
Material implication; denotes 'implies that' in logical statements.
Integral; represents the area under a curve or the antiderivative of a function.
Parallel; indicates that two lines, segments, or planes are equidistant and will never meet.
Perpendicular; denotes that lines, segments, or planes meet at a right angle (90 degrees).
Element of; denotes membership of an element in a set.
Existential quantification; denotes the existence of at least one element that satisfies a given property.
Subset or equal to; denotes all the elements of one set are contained within another, and the sets may be equal.
Direct sum; refers to the sum of algebraic structures, such as groups, rings, and vector spaces.
Del or nabla operator; used in vector calculus to denote gradient, divergence, or curl.
Logical disjunction; denotes 'or', used to combine two statements where at least one must be true.
Partial derivative; indicates the derivative of a function with respect to one of many variables, treating the others as constants.
Delta; represents change or difference in mathematical expressions.
Tensor product; operation on two tensors that produces another tensor.
Equivalence; denotes that two expressions are identically equal or congruent.
Limit; calculates the value that a function approaches as the variable approaches a specified value.
Material equivalence; denotes 'if and only if' and establishes that two statements are both necessary and sufficient for each other.
Therefore; used before a logical conclusion that follows from the arguments provided.
Congruent; used to denote that two figures have the same shape and size.
