用法筆記
Pronounced /ˈθiːtə/ (THEE-tuh) in both American and British English. The 'th' sound at the start does not exist in Mandarin or many other Asian languages, so learners often need extra practice saying it. In mathematics, θ is routinely used to label an unknown angle in trigonometry and geometry. In physics, lowercase θ often stands for temperature or an angle, while uppercase Θ may represent a thermodynamic quantity.
