A detailed tutorial on the definition of cardinal numbers. Step by step tutorial including several examples of how to define cardinal numbers for reference.

Cardinal numbers are natural numbers that are used to measure cardinality of sets. Cardinality is a fancy way of saying the size of a set. This means the cardinality is the number of elements in a set, provided that the set is finite. If the set is infinite, something called a transfinite cardinal number is used to describe the cardinality of the set. Cardinal numbers are a very important part of set theory, even though they are not studied often or used constantly.

A detailed tutorial on what pi is. Step by step tutorial including several examples of what pi is for reference.

Pi is a special number in mathematics. It is the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. No matter what size circle you use, your answer will always be pi, showing that all circles are proportional to one another. Pi is denoted by the Greek letter pi, which looks a little bit like an “n”. The numerical value of pi is 3.1415926535… but is typically shortened to the simple 3.14. Pi is very important in math and is used in all equations dealing with circles.
