Delta (Mathematics)

In mathematics, "delta" (often written as Δ) typically represents a change or difference between two values. For example, if you measure a person's height at two different times, the delta is how much their height has increased or decreased. It’s commonly used in calculus and physics to describe how a quantity varies over an interval. Mathematically, delta signifies the difference between an initial and a final value, helping to analyze rates of change, such as speed or growth, over specific periods or conditions.
