1)The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (okay, it's a theorem, but still neat)
2)The quadratic formula. [(-b +or- sqrt(b^2-4ac)]/2a 3)C/d = pi 4)(1+x)^(1/x)= e (Euler's number) <when x approaches zero) [ September 26, 2002: Message edited by: Secular Elation ]</p> |

Another good one is the wave equation. You can see it <a href="http://mathworld.wolfram.com/WaveEquation.html" target="_blank">here.</a>
Trying to type it out here won't do it justice. The second derivatives and the formatting just don't mix. |
