  1. Alright, future engineers!
    **Inverse Functions:** Functions that undo each other. If `f(a)=b`, then `f⁻¹(b)=a`.
    Ex: If `f(x)=2x`, then `f⁻¹(x)=x/2`.
    Pro-Tip: To find `f⁻¹(x)`, swap `x` and `y` in `y=f(x)` and solve for `y`.

  6. Alright, future engineers!
    **Literal Eq:** A formula with multiple variables, rearranged to solve for one specific variable.
    Ex: To solve `V=IR` for `I`, you get `I = V/R`.
    Pro-Tip: Treat other variables like constants! Isolate your target with inverse ops. #Algebra #Formulas #STEM #StudyNotes

  11. Alright, future engineers!
    **Implicit Diff:** Differentiating equations where 'y' isn't explicitly solved for 'x'. Treat 'y' as f(x), apply Chain Rule.
    Ex: `x^2 + y^2 = 9` => `2x + 2y(dy/dx) = 0`
    Pro-Tip: Don't forget `dy/dx` for *every* 'y' term!

  22. Every day we butt heads with technology in a myriad of ways, some tiny, some huge. All of them take their toll.

    Technology should be a wondrous boon! From speech recognition to customised interfaces, it could make life so much easier. The tech industry chooses not to make that kind of tech, or even allow it.

  25. Alright, future engineers!
    **Normal Distribution:** A symmetric, bell-shaped probability distribution where most data clusters around the mean.
    Ex: `Mean = Median = Mode` for a perfect normal curve.
    Pro-Tip: It's your go-to for modeling continuous data and uncertainty!

  26. Alright, future engineers!
    **Difference of Squares:** A binomial made of two perfect squares subtracted.
    Ex: `x^2 - 9 = (x - 3)(x + 3)`

    **Logarithm:** The exponent to which a base must be raised to produce a given number.
    Ex: `log_2(8) = 3` means `2^3 = 8`.
    Pro-Tip: Logs bring down exponents! (`log(A^B) = B log(A)`). Super handy for solving exponential equations! #Algebra #Logarithms #STEM #StudyNotes

  39. Alright, future engineers!

    **Feynman Technique:** Explain a complex concept simply, as if to a child. This reveals gaps in *your* understanding.
    Ex: Teach a tough derivation to a friend (or rubber duck!).
    Pro-Tip: If you can't simplify it, you don't truly grasp it yet. #StudyHack #DeepLearning #STEM #StudyNotes

  40. Alright, future engineers!

    **Truncation Error:** Error from stopping an infinite mathematical process early.
    Ex: Using a few Taylor series terms instead of all.
    Pro-Tip: Reduce it with smaller step sizes or higher-order methods for better accuracy!
