- 2Scalene triangle with b (base) and height (h) labelledScalene triangle with b (base) and height (h) labelledFormulae contain equals signs, as do equations, so it can sometimes be difficult to tell the difference between an equation and a formula.
- 3A formula is a calculation for a specific purpose, for example converting Fahrenheit to Celsius or vice versa. A formula is also always true, no matter what values are put in.An equation will only work for certain values, and is not always true. For example, the equation Equation: 2x + 5 = 13 will only be true if Equation: x is equal to 4. If any other value is put in, then the equation will no longer be correct.
- 4Substitution Substitution means putting numbers in place of letters to calculate the value of an expression.For example, in the expression Equation: 2b^2c, where Equation: b = 4 and Equation: c = 3, use the values of Equation: b and Equation: c to calculate the numerical value of the expression:
Equation: 2b^2c = 2 times b^2 times c
