How are complex mathematical equations “invented”? As in, how do you come up with the formulas and know definitively the answers to them are correct?
In: Mathematics
Every system of math is built on a set of rules. If you have an idea, then that idea must fit within those rules. If you can follow the rules and prove that your idea is correct, then you have created proof.
This is the case for simple addition all the way up to abstract algebra.
