Algebra

The branch of mathematics concerned with the manipulation of mathematical operations, variables, sets, groups, and fields. There are two main branches of algebra.

Elementary algebra is all about functions, combinatorics, and certain calculus concepts. The quadratic formula, the Binomial Theorem, and limits are all found here.

Abstract algebra has a lot to do with groups and set manipulation. Linear algebra, the study of vectors, can be found here as well.
The Abel-Ruffini Theorem states that there is no general formula to find the roots of a polynomial equation of degree 5 (quintic) or higher. This is an elementary algebra statement, but is proved using Galois Theory.

Algebra

A sensible, useful system of mathematics used for solving rudimentary equations without knowing one of the constants. Commonly referred to as "hard" by people with an IQ in single digits to make themselves feel better about the fact that they cannot complete one of the most important core aspects of mathematics and logic in general.
A:"Hey I failed the algebra test again!"
B:"90% of the questions were something like 4x = 20. How could you fail that you fucking troglodyte? Use basic logic and arithmetic dude..."
A:"What? Use basic logic and arithmetic? Nah fuck that. I'm going to Urban Dictionary to dislike definitions in support of an important mathematical concept to make up for the fact I am mentally retarded."
