theorem

Vocabulary Word

Definition

'Theorem' is a term used in mathematics, physics, and other sciences. It's a statement that has been proven true using facts and logical thinking. So, if it's a theorem, you can trust it!

Examples in Different Contexts

In algorithms, certain 'theorems' define computational limits. A computer scientist might state, 'By Gödel's incompleteness theorems, there are limits to what can be proven in certain systems.'

Practice Scenarios

Business

Scenario:

This statistical model seems to be off. Could we recheck our calculations and ensure they adhere to the key statistical theories?

Response:

I agree, let's revisit our model, especially the application of the Central Limit Theorem to ensure the accuracy of our results.

Aerospace

Scenario:

Considering the fluid dynamics involved, we'll need to apply appropriate theorems to get accurate prediction for the aerodynamics.

Response:

Right, I suggest employing the Bernoulli's theorem, that would provide us more precise results for fluid dynamics.
