   EdgeThe edges of a polygon are the outside boundaries.  In thesquare on the right, you can see four  edges.   In a polyhedron, like the dodecahedron on the right, an edge is where two faces meet.  The edges are the yellow lines.
  
   EllipseThere's an easy definition for an ellipse and a harder algebra definition.  Here's the easy one:   An ellipse is a stretched out circle.For the algebra definition, check out.Coolmath Algebra Ellipses
  
   EllipsoidAn ellipsoid is a three dimensional ellipse.  Imagine putting a line through the longest part of an ellipse and spinning it.  This would give you an ellipsoid.
  
   Empty SetAn empty set is the same as a "null set."  An empty set is a set with no members (or elements.)  The symbol for the empty set is on the right.  It can also be written as an empty set of set brackets:                                        {   }Putting the empty set symbol inside the set brackets is a bad thing...  But, is a common mistake, so don't do it!
  
  Equality
  A math statement showing that two things are equal.
  Example:   3 + 2 = 5
  
  Equation
  A math statement showing that two things are equal.  (Same thing as an equality.)
  Example:   3 + 2 = 5
  
  Equidistant
  Equidistant just means "the same distance."
  
   Equilateral TriangleAn equilateral triangle is a triangle whose sides are all the same length (congruent). For more info, check out Properties of Triangles, Triangle Notations and Types of Triangles
  
  Estimate
  When you estimate the answer to a problem it means that you give a pretty good guess at what the answer will be.
  Example:   199 x 302 =      Well, that's close to 200 x 300 which is 60,000. (I can do that in my head).   So, my estimate for the answer is 60,000.  The real answer is 60,098.
  
  Even Number
  An even number is a number that is cleanly divisible by 2.  (When I say "cleanly divisible" I mean that there is noremainder.)
  Example:  2, 4, 6, 8, ...
  
  Expanded Notation
  Expanded notation is when you write a number out to show all the place values.
  Example:   5682 = ( 5 x 1000 ) + ( 6 100 ) + ( 8 10 )  + ( 2 1 )
