Two numbers with the same absolute value but different signs are called additive inverses. In mathematics, the additive inverse of a number is the number that, when added to the original number, results in zero. For example, +5 and -5 are additive inverses because 5 + (-5) = 0. This concept is fundamental in algebra and arithmetic operations involving positive and negative numbers.

Factoid: The sum of any two numbers with the same absolute value and opposite signs is zero.
