It is true for all permissible values of any variables in the equation. More simply put, it is always true.
Identity equation
An equation that is always true is an identity.
Such an equation is called an IDENTITY.
16 = 16 is an identity, not an equation. An identity does not have solutions.
A solution to an equation is a set of values for the variables in the equation which make it true.
The solution set is the answers that make an equation true. So I would call it the solution.
Identity equation
Any number that makes an equation true is a 'solution of an equation'. it is a solution
The equation or a system of equations having infinite solutions is called identity/identities. (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2 is an identity. It has infinite solutions. The equation is true for all values of a and b.
No, it's the other way round - an equation that's true for every value of the variable(s) is called an identity. Of course, an identity is also an equation.
In math, an equation that is always true is called an identity.
An equation that is always true is an identity.
Such an equation is called an IDENTITY.
16 = 16 is an identity, not an equation. An identity does not have solutions.
