THEOREM

n.[Gr. to see. ] 1. In mathematics, a proposition which terminates in theory, and which considers the properties of things already made or done; or it is a speculative proposition deduced from several definitions compared together.
A theorem is a proposition to be proved by a chain of reasoning. A theorem is something to be proved; a problem is something to be done.
2. In algebra or analysis, it is sometimes used to denote a rule, particularly when that rule is expressed by symbols.
A universal theorem, extends to any quantity without restriction.
A particular theorem, extends only to a particular quantity.
A negative theorem, expresses the impossibility of any assertion.
A local theorem, is that which relates to a surface.
A solid theorem, is that which considers a space terminated by a solid, that is, by any of the three conic sections.

 

THEOREMATIC, THEOREMATICAL, THEOREMIC

Webster's 1913 Dictionary

THEOREM

The "o *rem, n. Etym: [L. theorema, Gr. théorème. See Theory. ]

 

1. That which is considered and established as a principle; hence, sometimes, a rule. Not theories, but theorems (Coleridge. By the theorems, Which your polite and terser gallants practice, I re-refine the court, and civilize Their barbarous natures. Massinger.

 

2. (Math. )

 

Defn: A statement of a principle to be demonstrated.

 

Note: A theorem is something to be proved, and is thus distinguished from a problem, which is something to be solved. In analysis, the term is sometimes applied to a rule, especially a rule or statement of relations expressed in a formula or by symbols; as, the binomial theorem; Taylor's theorem. See the Note under Proposition, n., 5. Binomial theorem. (Math. ) See under Binomial. -- Negative theorem, a theorem which expresses the impossibility of any assertion. -- Particular theorem (Math. ), a theorem which extends only to a particular quantity. -- Theorem of Pappus. (Math. ) See Centrobaric method, under Centrobaric. -- Universal theorem (Math. ), a theorem which extends to any quantity without restriction.
