An algebraic number is one which is a root of a polynomial equation with rational coefficients. All rational numbers are algebraic numbers. Irrational Numbers such as square roots, cube roots, surds etc are algebraic but there are others that are not. A transcendental number is such a number: an irrational number that is not an algebraic number. pi and e (the base of the exponential function) are both transcendental.

Basically, a number is transcendental if it isn't the solution of a polynomial equation. An example would be PI.

In statistics it could mean the sum of the values for the y-variable.

An algebraic number is one which is a root of a non-constant polynomial equation with rational coefficients. A transcendental number is not an algebraic number. Although a transcendental number may be complex, Pi is not.
Two of the most important numbers in mathematics, pi and e (Euler's number) are both transcendental. Both are used in almost all branches of mathematics, and through that, in our daily lives even if you are not aware of them.

A transcendental number is one which is not algebraic. An algebraic number is one which is a root of a non-zero polynomial with rational coefficients.
yes * * * * * No it does not. A transcendental number is not rational. It is irrational but, further than that, it is not the root of any polynomial equation with rational coefficients.
Since pi is transcendental, pi2 is also transcendental. So pi is the square root of the transcendental number pi2.
Hermite proved that "e" is transcendental, but it was Ferdinand Lindemann who proved that "pi" is transcendental.
Real but not a root of an algebraic equation with rational roots coefficients
Transcendental Medication was created in 1996.
Transcendental Youth was created in 2012.
It means that it is not algebraic... that is, it is not the root of a polynomial expression with rational coefficients.There are infinitely more transcendental numbers than algebraic numbers, but only a few are of any practical importance... most prominently pi and e, the base of the natural logarithms.All (real) transcendental numbers are irrational, but not all irrational numbers are transcendental. For example, the square root of two is irrational, but it is not transcendental as it is a root of the equation x2 - 2 = 0, a polynomial expression with rational coefficients.
