Can infinity even be defined

Certainly, infinity can be defined. It can't be perfectlydefined, but then, as Wittgenstein demonstrated some time ago, there are really no perfect definitions of anything. All language is approximate, even in mathematics (which is more precisely defined than most subjects). Infinity is defined as an endless quantity, greater than any number that can be counted.

Is infinity less than infinity true?

No. In mathematics, infinity is not strictly defined as a comparable entity, since it is not defined.Opinion: Even if it would be considered comparable, infinity would equal infinity and thus not be less than itself.


Who log zero is infinity?

Log zero is not defined, and if it were defined, it would be more likely to be minus infinity than infinity.


Is infinity divided by infinity 1?

Infinity is not a defined number. It describes, in math, the endlessness of numbers.


Is infinity zero?

Infinity cannot, by definition, be a defined number such as zero.


How can infinity be named infinity if it is undefinable?

In-finity or in-finite means not finite, not ending. It can certain be defined; there are different definitions for infinity. Better look up "infinity" in Wikipedia; because actually, infinity has different meanings in different contexts; even in math there are different meanings, depending on the context.


What is the value of zero times infinity?

Zero times infinity is defined as "indeterminate".


What is the square root of infinity?

Since infinity is not a defined number, it is impossible to have a square root of it. its infinity!


Is infinity defined?

No, infinity is not defined. It's a only imaginary number . Let suppose , 1000 os infinity we don't know. In future we know 1000 then 1001 will become infinity. I think you got your answer.


What is sine infinity?

Sine does not converge but oscillates. As a result sine does not tend to a limit as its argument tends to infinity. So sine(infinity) is not defined.


What is the result of dividing a number by zero?

You can not divide by zero - it is not defined. Presumably you get infinity, but there are different types of infinity.


What is the derivative of infinity?

Infinity is not defined in exact terms, so there's no sense of diff. & intg. It, but if it is to be taken as constant that we have, infinity + 1 = infinity, it should be zero then, but it isnt practical..
